2.
These
channel
paths
can
result
in
’Path
Busy’
conditions
when
another
LP
is
using
the
path.
This
can
result
in
delays
in
getting
requests
to
the
coupling
facility
on
this
path.
The
number
of
’Path
Busy’
conditions
can
be
found
in
the
RMF
CF
Subchannel
Activity
report
in
the
BUSY
COUNTS
column
labelled
PTH.
As
a
guideline,
if
this
count
exceeds
10%
of
the
total
requests,
you
should
consider
not
sharing
the
channel
path
or
adding
additional
coupling
facility
channel
paths.
Defining
Internal
Coupling
Channels
(TYPE=ICP)
Internal
Coupling
channels
are
virtual
attachments
and,
as
such,
require
no
real
hardware.
However,
they
do
require
CHPID
numbers
and
they
do
need
to
be
defined
in
the
IOCDS.
It
is
suggested
that
you
define
a
minimum
of
internal
coupling
channels.
For
most
customers,
IBM
suggests
defining
just
one
pair
of
ICP
channel
paths
for
each
coupling
facility
logical
partition
(LP)
in
your
configuration.
For
instance,
if
your
general
purpose
configuration
has
several
ESA
LPs
and
one
CF
LP,
you
would
define
one
pair
of
connected
ICP
CHPIDs
shared
by
all
the
LPs
in
your
configuration.
If
your
configuration
has
several
ESA
LPs
and
two
CF
LPs,
you
still
would
only
define
one
connected
pair
of
ICP
CHPIDs,
but
one
ICP
CHPID
should
be
defined
as
shared
by
the
ESA
LPs
and
one
CF
LP
while
the
other
ICP
CHPID
is
defined
as
shared
by
the
ESA
LPs
and
the
other
CF
LP.
Both
of
these
examples
best
exploit
the
peer
capabilities
of
these
coupling
channels
by
using
the
sending
and
receiving
buffers
of
both
channels.
You
must
define
ICP
CHPIDs
in
pairs,
and
you
must
connect
each
pair.
A
connected
pair
of
ICP
CHPIDs
is
called
an
internal
coupling
link
.
Both
ends
of
the
internal
coupling
link
must
be
specified
by
defining
which
ICPs
are
to
communicate
with
each
other.
Use
the
CPATH
keywords
in
the
CHPID
statement
to
connect
internal
coupling
CHPIDs
(see
page
Maximum
Recommended
Number
of
ICP
CHPIDs:
Real
CPU
resources
are
used
to
implement
the
link
function
of
connected
ICP
CHPIDs.
Production
environments
should
limit
the
maximum
number
of
internal
coupling
links
that
are
defined
for
a
CPC
to
optimize
the
internal
coupling
link
function
utilization
of
CPU
resources.
This
maximum
number
of
internal
coupling
links
is
based
on
the
number
of
available
physical
CPs
on
the
CPC.
This
maximum
number
of
internal
coupling
links
can
be
calculated
by
taking
the
number
of
CPs
in
the
CPC
that
are
used
for
general
purpose
CPs
and
for
ICF
CPs,
and
subtracting
one
from
that
total.
For
example:
a
CPC
that
consists
of
four
general
purpose
CPs
and
two
ICF
CPs
would
have
a
maximum
five
[(4
+
2
=
6)
-
1
=
5]
internal
coupling
links
recommended.
This
represents
a
maximum
total
of
ten
ICP
CHPIDs
being
defined.
I/O
Configuration
Considerations
ICP
IOCP
supports
coupling
facility
channel
path
definition
on
the
System
z9
CPC.
With
z/OS,
HCD
provides
controls
for
defining
coupling
facility
channels.
HCD
also
automatically
generates
the
control
unit
and
device
definitions
associated
with
CFP,
CBP,
CIB,
or
ICP
channel
paths.
IBM
recommends
that
you
use
the
Hardware
Configuration
Definition
(HCD),
when
possible,
to
define
the
coupling
facility
channel
configuration
to
the
channel
subsystem.
