Field Definitions 

 

Path Name:

  Enter the name that you wish to use for the Path that you are defining. In 

some cases you may want to use the CHPID name or a combination of Host and CHPID 
to keep the name relevant to what you are doing. Other possible names may include the 
switch and port that the VI-5990 is attached to.  
 

Host Director Port:

  This entry identifies the FICON switch and port to which the host 

is attached, related to the PATH/CHPID being defined in the previous field. If the FICON 
channel is directly attached to the host, the value for this field should be ‘FFFF’. 
 

Ficon Channel:

  This control is a dropdown control that includes all of the FICON 

interfaces installed on this platform. Select the FICON Channel interface that the 
PATH/CHPID will be connected to.
