Parameters
To Place Paths Online
-path
Indicates that the target of the operation is a path managed by HDLM.
This parameter is optional because the online is always used for paths,
so it is assumed.
Specify the paths to be taken online by using the -hba, -cha, -pathid, or
-hbaportwwn parameter. If you do not specify any of these parameters,
the command will place all the offline paths online. If there is a path that
cannot be placed online, a message asks whether you would like to
continue processing. To ignore the offline path that cannot be placed
online and to continue processing, enter y. To stop the processing, enter
n.
-hba host-port-number.bus-number
Use this parameter to place online, at one time, all the paths that pass
through a specific HBA port. The command will place online all the paths
connected to the HBA port that has the specified host port number and
bus number.
Specify the host port number and bus number of the target HBA port: the
numbers are found in the PathName field displayed using the view
