6. Command Reference
410
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
operation. Enter a
period between these two parameter values. For details about the
view
operation,
see 6.7 view (Displays Information) .
Example
The following example shows how to place online all paths connected to an
HBA port whose host port number is
0010
and bus number is
0000
:
When the confirmation message is displayed, the user enters
y
to continue,
or
n
to cancel the operation.

KAPL01057-I All the paths which pass the specified HBA
will be changed to the Online status. Is this OK? [y/n]:y
KAPL01061-I 3 path(s) were successfully placed Online; 0

#
-cha -pathid
AutoPATH_ID
Use this parameter to place online, at one time, all the paths that pass through a
specific CHA port. The command will place online all the paths that pass through
the CHA port to which the path with the specified AutoPATH_ID is connected.
Specify the current AutoPATH_ID of the target path, which is displayed by using
the
view
operation. For details about the
view
operation, see 6.7 view (Displays
Information) . Leading zeros can be omitted (
000001
and
1
indicate the same
AutoPATH_ID ); however, when the target AutoPATH_ID is
000000
, enter
000000
or
0
for the parameter value.
AutoPATH_IDs are re-assigned every time the host is restarted. When you want
to add a new LU without restarting the host, AutoPATH_IDs are re-assigned to
each path of the LU when you execute the HDLM-configuration definition utility
(
dlmcfgmgr
). Always make sure that you use the
view
operation to find the
current AutoPATH_ID of the target path, before executing the
online
operation.
Example
The following example shows how to place online the paths connected to the
CHA port
0A
. In this example, a path whose AutoPATH_ID is
000002
is
connected to the target CHA port:
When the confirmation message is displayed, the user enters
y
to continue,
or
n
to cancel the operation.
