Conventions Used in This Book

This book uses the following conventions in subcommand and panel descriptions:

� Commands and values that you enter are shown in bold type (for example, SETECAMDEV).

� Uppercase letters in subcommand or parameter names indicate the requiredletters; the lowercase letters can be omitted. For example, ALTer CHANnelshows that ALT CHAN is the short form of the ALTER CHANNEL subcommand.

� In the panel descriptions, field names and key names are shown in bold type(for example, the Dates field, the Enter key).

For more details of the conventions, see “Subcommand Descriptions” onpage 8-11.

Notation Used in Syntax DiagramsThroughout this library, diagrams are used to illustrate the programming syntax.The following list tells you how to interpret the syntax diagrams:

� Read the syntax diagrams from left to right, from top to bottom, following thepath of the line.

The symbol indicates the beginning of a statement.

The symbol indicates that the statement syntax continues on the next line.

The symbol indicates that a statement is continued from the previous line.

The symbol indicates the end of a statement.

� Items shown on the main path of the statement are required.

��──KEYWORD──keyword_name───────────────────────────────────────────────────────��

� Items shown on branches below the main path are optional.

��──KEYWORD──keyword_name─ ──┬ ┬─────── ──┬ ┬─────── ────────────────────────────────�� └ ┘ ─ITEM1─ └ ┘ ─ITEM2─

� Items shown on branches above the main path are default values.

┌ ┐─ITEM1─��──KEYWORD──keyword_name─ ──┴ ┴─────── ───────────────────────────────────────────��

� Items appearing in a stack indicate that only one of the items can be specified.When one of the items in a stack appears on the main path, you must includeone of the items.

For example, in the following diagram, you must include either ITEM1 or ITEM2.ITEM3 and ITEM4 both appear below the main path, so neither one is required.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. Nxiv SVAA Configuration and Administration

��──KEYWORD──keyword_name─ ──┬ ┬─ITEM1─ ──┬ ┬─────── ────────────────────────────────�� └ ┘─ITEM2─ ├ ┤─ITEM3─ └ ┘─ITEM4─

� A repeat arrow shown above an item or a stack of items indicates that you canspecify the item multiple times or specify more than one of the items. Acharacter (such as a comma or a blank) on the repeat arrow indicates that theitems must be separated by that character.

For example, in the following syntax diagram, you can specify both ITEM1 andITEM2, but you must use a blank to separate your choices in your programmingsyntax.

┌ ┐─ ───────��──KEYWORD──keyword_name─ ───� ┴┬ ┬─ITEM1─ ─────────────────────────────────────────�� └ ┘─ITEM2─

� In some cases, when an item has additional items associated with it, anadditional syntax diagram is shown that represents the full syntax of that item.For example, in the following syntax diagram, additional information that can ormust be specified for ITEM1 appears in the “ITEM1 Variables” syntax diagram.

��──KEYWORD──keyword_name──┤ ITEM1 Variables ├──ITEMS2──────────────────────────��

ITEM1 variables:├─ ──┬ ┬─variable1─ ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ ├ ┤─variable2─ └ ┘─variable3─

Chapter 1. Introduction

Shared Virtual Array Administrator (SVAA) helps you manage the Shared VirtualArray (SVA) subsystem. SVAA provides both a TSO command-line interface and anISPF full-screen interface for configuring and administering SVA subsystems. Withthese same interfaces, SVAA also enables you to collect data and generate reportsabout the performance of SVA subsystems and traditional DASD subsystems.

SVAA consists of:

� Dynamic Configuration

� Deleted Data Space Release (DDSR)

� SnapShot

� Data collection and reporting with Reporter

The first three of these facilities are the subject of this manual. The Reporter facilityis documented in the SVAA for OS/390 Reporting manual.

Dynamic Configuration

Dynamic Configuration enables you to define up to 4096 functional devices within asingle SVA subsystem. You can define the functional devices to emulate differentIBM and SCSI devices (3380 and 3390 device types), all within the samesubsystem. You can also define and intermix larger than normal functional devices,called Large Volumes, with smaller than normal functional devices, calledFlexVolumes, along with your normal sized functional devices in the samesubsystem. Using the facilities described in this manual, you can also reconfigurethe subsystem at any time to meet your needs.

Deleted Data Space Release (DDSR)

The Deleted Data Space Release (DDSR) facility informs the subsystem that agiven functional volume extent no longer contains any useful information and thecontents of the corresponding track images can be discarded. Thus, DDSR enablesSVA to reduce its net capacity load, take better advantage of its extended capacity,and achieve lower overall storage costs.

A complete discussion of the DDSR facility is presented in Chapter 4, “UsingDeleted Data Space Release.”

SnapShot

StorageTek's data duplication method, SnapShot, duplicates data sets or wholevolumes without physically moving any data. SnapShot creates only new pointersto the original data set or volume. This dramatically reduces the time required fordata duplication operations—backups, for example. Furthermore, no additionalphysical disk or cache space is used in making the duplicate. The two sets ofpointers treat the data as if it were two physically separate images. Updates canoccur simultaneously to the original data and to the duplicate.

Chapter 5, “Using SnapShot” provides a description of the SnapShot facility.

Functional Differences between Subsystems

Earlier StorageTek disk storage subsystems supported some functions that are notavailable on the current SVA model. SVAA 3.1 is compatible with those earlierproducts; thus, the functions are documented in this manual for compatibility. Thecharacteristics of some other functions have changed. Table 1-1 summarizesthese differences.

Media Acceptance Testing is not supported in SVAA. However, the MAT partitionstill exists, but only as a status for drive modules that have not been allocated asspares.

Before You Begin Configuration

Before you begin defining and updating your subsystem using SVAA, you mustcomplete a minimum subsystem configuration using the Local Operator Panel (LOP)or the Detached Operator Panel (DOP). The minimum configuration requires:

� Forming at least one production array.

� Defining at least one subsystem identifier (SSID) within the valid SSID ranges.The SSID must be unique among all your DASD subsystem IDs.

� Defining at least one privileged ECAM device.

� Configuring and enabling at least one channel accessible to the host operatingsystem.

In addition to the minimum configuration steps at the LOP or DOP, you must definethe SVA subsystem to the host through the I/O configuration program (IOCP) orhardware configuration definition (HCD).

Note: Each SVA subsystem must have a unique subsystem name.

See the V2Xf Shared Virtual Array: Operation and Recovery manual for LOP andDOP configuration procedures.

Terms and Concepts

Configuration Terms and Concepts

This section describes some basic terms and concepts of the configuration process.

Forming ArraysArrays in the SVA subsystem consist of either 7 or 15 drive modules. An array with7 drive modules is described as a “5+2” configuration, while a 15-drive array has a“13+2” configuration. In either case, the first value refers to the portion (in terms ofa number of drive modules) of the array's capacity that is available for user data.The second value (“2” in both cases) refers to the portion that is used forredundancy data.

Thus, for example, a 13+2 array provides storage capacity equivalent to:

� 13 drive modules of user data and� 2 drive modules of redundancy data.

Note: You can define a 5+2 array only on the 9393 or 9500 SVA—not on the V2Xor V960 SVA.

The size of any array you form (5+2 or 13+2) is determined by the current ArraySize value for the subsystem. You can change the Array Size value with the ALTERSUBSYSTEM subcommand (see page 8-29) or the SUBSYSTEM CONFIGURATIONpanel (see page 7-15). However, you can override the current subsystem valuewith the FORM ARRAY subcommand (see page 8-63) or the FORM TEST ARRAYSpanel (see page 7-77) or FORM PRODUCTION ARRAYS panel (see page 7-80) at thetime you form a new array.

The First Array

Note: The first array (a Production array) is formed at the Local Operator Panel(LOP) or the Detached Operator Panel (DOP) as part of the initial minimumconfiguration.

To form the first array in the subsystem, 16 spare drive modules are required for a13+2 array; 8 are required for a 5+2 array. In either case, the extra drive isreserved as a spare for the entire subsystem.

Forming Additional Arrays

After the first array in the subsystem has been defined at the LOP or the DOP, thenumber of spare drive modules required to form an additional array depends uponthe current subsystem Array Size or, if you override it, the Array Size that youspecify when you form the array.

To form n arrays (after the first array), the number of available spare drive modulesrequired is:

(n x 7) + 1 to form “5+2” arrays, or

(n x 15) + 1 to form “13+2” arrays.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-3

Terms and Concepts

PartitionsEach drive module, depending upon its status, belongs to one of five partitions:

� MAT � Spares � Test � Production � Unavailable

The term partition indicates the current use or availability of a drive module—not aphysical location. Each drive module's status is more precisely defined by atwo-character status code. All status codes are listed and described in Appendix A,“Drive Module Status.”

The partitions are described briefly as follows:

� MAT

The MAT partition consists of all newly installed drive modules and all drivemodules that have just been drained (see “Draining Drive Modules” onpage 2-5). Assignment to this partition occurs automatically in both cases.With the ALLOCATE SPARES subcommand, drives are moved from the MATpartition to the Spares partition for the purpose of forming arrays. Drivemodules in the MAT partition cannot be accessed by host programs.

� Production

The Production partition consists of one or more arrays used for storing andretrieving data.

� Test

The Test partition consists of one or more arrays used for storing and retrievingnon-critical data. This partition provides a way for you to test new drivemodules before moving them in the Production partition. Before you can forma Test array, a Production array must exist.

Note: You cannot form Test arrays on the V2Xf, V2X, V960, or 9500SVA—only on subsystems running earlier microcode. See “FunctionalDifferences between Subsystems” on page 1-2 for more information.

The Test partition is normally used only for system installation and verification.Test data is physically partitioned from production data, and access time fordata in the Test partition is not guaranteed to be comparable to that in theProduction partition.

� Spares

Drive modules in the Spares partition are used to form test and Productionarrays, to reconstruct failed disks, and to receive data from devices beingdrained.

� Unavailable

The Unavailable partition consists of any slot (physical location of a drivemodule) or drive module that is not under your immediate control. Thisincludes slots that have not been installed and slots that contain inactive orbroken devices.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N2-4 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Draining Drive Modules

Draining Drive Modules

A drain is the process of migrating data off one or more drive modules. When thedesignated drive modules have been successfully drained, they are placed in theMAT partition for removal or reallocation.

You can select drive modules to be drained in one of four ways:

� individually (by unit, tray, slot) � by array � by tray� by disk array unit (DAU)

Subsystem capacity must be sufficient to receive data to be drained. If availablecapacity is inadequate, the drain request is rejected.

Single Drive Module Drains

To be selected for draining, a drive module must be in the Production, Test, orSpares partition and in the active state; that is, its status must be PA, TA, or SA.Explanations of all drive module status codes appear in Appendix A, “Drive ModuleStatus.”

In a single drive module drain, all the data on the drive is moved to a spare drivemodule. Thus, for each Production or Test partition drive module to be drained, aspare drive module must be available. No spare drive is required to drain a spare,however; draining a spare is instantaneous.

Array Drains

In an array drain, all the data in the array is moved to other arrays in the partition.If FDIDs are defined for the partition there must be another array in the samepartition for the drain to be performed. If no FDIDs are defined for the partition, youcan drain the array.

Tray or DAU Drains

The method used to drain a tray or an entire DAU depends upon the number ofspares available in addition to the 1-spare minimum requirement.

� If, for each drive module in the DAU or tray to be drained, a spare drive isavailable outside that DAU or tray, each drive module is drained into one of thespares.

� If the number of available spares is inadequate, the process involves drainingarrays. In this case, drain activity may be observed in “associated” drivemodules—modules that are part of an array being drained, but that lie outsidethe “target” DAU or tray.

Note: You cannot drain a DAU or tray if a Test partition is defined. (This isbecause DAU and tray drains can involve draining multiple arrays—and all arraysincluded in any one drain must belong to the same partition.)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-5

Reporting Status

Reporting on the Status of a Drain

SVAA allows you to generate a detailed report, by subsystem, of drain events. Youobtain event reports with either the REPORT EVENTS subcommand or the sequenceof event status panels.

The report shows detailed information for an event, such as the time and date ofthe request, percentage of the drain complete, and a list of the individual drivemodules involved.

Peer-to-Peer Remote Copy (PPRC)

Peer-to-Peer Remote Copy (PPRC) is a way to synchronously propagate DASDupdates from local primary volumes to remote secondary volumes of a like-devicegeometry. A primary volume and an associated secondary volume are called apair. PPRC pairs are established and de-established using TSO or ICKDSFcommands.

| The SVAA has been enhanced with PTF L2P00CX (MVS) and L2P00CY (VM) to| provide the new PPRC configuration command PPRCopy and subcommands| ESTPATH, DELPATH, and QUERY.

| These commands may be used to establish and terminate PPRC paths and to| query PPRC status. Previously, these commands were only available using TSO or| ICKDSF commands. Once a PPRC path has been established, the remainder of the| PPRC configuration (to establish pairs, freeze, recover, etc.) must be done using| TSO or ICKDSF commands.

SVAA RequirementsThe following requirements apply to both z/OS and z/VM environments:

� You cannot alter a channel interface that is used by a PPRC pair.

� You cannot alter a functional device that is part of a PPRC pair.

� You cannot delete a functional device that is part of a PPRC pair.

� You cannot alter an SSID on a subsystem on which PPRC is enabled. Youmust first delete all PPRC pairs and paths, have your hardware supportrepresentative disable the PPRCSnapShot hardware feature (if installed), andthen disable the PPRCfcn or PPRC hardware feature. After you alter the SSID,PPRC can be re-enabled for the subsystem and paths and pairs re-established.

Since this process may be highly disruptive to your operations, you may wantto devise an SSID numbering scheme that will not need to change over timeand that can accomodate the addition of new subsystems without the need todisrupt PPRC pairs and paths or the status of SVA hardware features.

� The PPRCfcn or PPRC hardware feature must be enabled before thePPRCSnapShot hardware feature can be enabled; conversely, thePPRCSnapShot hardware feature must be disabled before the PPRCfcn orPPRC hardware feature can be disabled.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N2-6 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Power PPRC

z/VM Requirements for PPRCThe following requirements apply to z/VM environments only:

� Your z/VM user directory must include the following statement to be able toissue PPRC path and pair establish and delete commands:

STDEVOPT DASDSYS DATAMOVER

See IBM's z/VM CP Planning and Administration for more information aboutthis requirement.

SVAA ConsiderationsSome important considerations for SVAA and PPRC operations are as follows:

� Do not issue a SET ECAMDEVICE subcommand against a PPRC primary orsecondary volume; i.e., do not try to define a PPRC volume as an ECAM device.

� Do not issue a TSO CESTPAIR command (or an ICKDSF PPRCOPY ESTPAIRcommand) against an ECAM device; that is, do not attempt to establish a PPRCpair that includes an ECAM device.

� Vary offline, to all systems, all volumes intended to become PPRC secondaryvolumes.

� You may wish to add all PPRC secondary volumes to the SVAA DeviceExclusion Table so that they are excluded from SVAA processing, however, beaware that such definitions would have to be undone to be able to accessthese volumes during a disaster recovery.

Note: DDSR processing is still performed on PPRC secondary volumes,although indirectly.

� In SMS-managed environments, define all PPRC secondary volumes to an SMSstorage group that is disabled for all new allocations.

Standard Peer-to-Peer Remote Copy (PPRC)

Standard PPRC

Standard PPRC is supported only on the StorageTek 9500; Power PPRC issupported on the StorageTek V960, V2X, and V2X2.

In general, users may see significantly shorter PPRC synchronization times for SVAvolumes than for volumes on traditional DASD.

Power PPRC

The standard version of PPRC is limited to ESCON distances of approximately 40kilometers, and suffers severe performance penalties if connected to a longdistance medium via a converter/multiplexer box. This is due to the extreme“chatty” nature of the ESCON protocol, inefficient use of the PPRC link, and thecurrent limitation on the speed of light.

Standard PPRC is supported only on the StorageTek 9500; Power PPRC issupported on the StorageTek V960 and V2X.

Power PPRC improves standard PPRC performance and may extend the distancelimit by using one of the following modes of operation:

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-7

Power PPRC

� Direct Mode -- still uses ESCON connections but improves performance byusing Data Bridge devices. These devices almost completely eliminate ESCON“chatter” by serving as staging areas for the continuous transmission of data.Direct Mode requires one Data Bridge device on each subsystem associated ina peer-to-peer relationship.

� WAN Mode -- improves PPRC performance by using Data Bridge devices, butalso increases distance limits by using multiplexers and long distancehigh-speed communication lines like T1/T3. Status Bridge devices are used totransmit acknowledgments that data was successfully received. WAN Moderequires one Data Bridge device and one Status Bridge device on eachsubsystem associated in a peer-to-peer relationship.

Power PPRC also surpasses standard PPRC through the concept of a Bridge pair, aPPRC pair between two Bridge devices. Think of data traffic between eachstandard PPRC pair as driving on a two-lane road, stuck behind a large,slow-moving truck.

With Power PPRC, a Data Bridge pair acts like a multi-lane interstate highway for allstandard PPRC pairs between two subsystems, letting you get to your destinationfaster, more efficiently, and with less aggravation.

Bridge Device Definition RequirementsBridge devices are subject to the following requirements:

� Bridge devices must be defined to the operating system and hardware usingHCD and IOCP. It is recommended that all Bridge devices be defined to beoffline to avoid operator intervention at IPL time.

CAUTION:Bridge devices are not intended for use as data storage devices. Youshould not attempt to ICKDSF initialize and/or vary any Bridge deviceonline to a host operating system, since all user and system data (e.g.,VTOCs) can be destroyed during the establishment of a Power PPRCBridge pair.

� A previously unused FDID must be used to define a Bridge device. The newDATABRIDGE and STATUSBRIDGE parameters of the DEFINE DEVICEsubcommand must be used to specify the type of Bridge device to be defined.

� FDIDs already in use cannot be modified for use as Bridge devices.

� If you want to use a specific FDID as a Bridge device and it is already in usefor data storage, first move the data elsewhere, then delete and redefine thedesired FDID as a Bridge device of the appropriate type.

� A Data Bridge device must be defined as a 3390-9 CKD device.

� A Status Bridge device must be defined as a 3390-3 CKD device.

� Bridge devices must be defined with CKDENABLE(YES) andCKDREADWRITE(YES) attributes (which are the defaults) to be able tosuccessfully establish a Bridge pair.

� Bridge devices cannot be defined as Large Volumes or FlexVolumes.

Power PPRC

Operational ConsiderationsTo use Power PPRC, there are only a few operational considerations to be awareof. The principal consideration is that Bridge pairs must be established first, anddeleted last.

Other considerations are reflected in the following sample operational proceduresprovided as a general guide for implementing Power PPRC at your site.

Setting Up a Power PPRC Direct Mode Environment

� Define one Data Bridge device on subsystem A and another on subsystem B.

� Establish a PPRC path from subsystem A to subsystem B using the CESTPATHcommand.

� Establish a Bridge pair between the Data Bridge devices using the CESTPAIRcommand.

� Determine which data storage devices on each subsystem are to be used toestablish PPRC pairs (and remember that data on the Secondary device can beoverwritten when the pair is established!).

� Establish PPRC pairs between the desired devices using the CESTPAIRcommand.

Breaking Down a Power PPRC Direct Mode Environment

� Delete all PPRC pairs between non-Bridge devices using the CDELPAIRcommand.

� Delete the Bridge pair between the Bridge devices using the CDELPAIRcommand.

� Optionally, delete the PPRC path from subsystem A to subsystem B using theCDELPATH command.

Setting Up a Power PPRC WAN Mode Environment

� Define one Data Bridge device on subsystem A and another on subsystem B.

� Define one Status Bridge device on subsystem A and another on subsystem B.

� Establish two PPRC paths from subsystem A to subsystem B using theCESTPATH command. Two paths are required—one for Data Bridge use andthe other for Status Bridge use.

� Establish a Bridge pair between the Data Bridge devices using the CESTPAIRcommand. This also implicitly reverses the direction of one of the PPRC pathsso that now one path is from subsystem A to subsystem B for the Data Bridge,and the other path is from subsystem B to subsystem A for the Status Bridge.The Status Bridge pair is then implicitly established.

� Determine which data storage devices on each subsystem are to be used toestablish PPRC pairs (and remember that data on the Secondary device can beoverwritten when the pair is established!).

� Establish PPRC pairs between the desired devices using the CESTPAIRcommand.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-9

Snap to Primary

Breaking Down a Power PPRC Direct Mode Environment

� Delete all PPRC pairs between non-Bridge devices using the CDELPAIRcommand.

� Delete the Bridge pair between the Bridge devices using the CDELPAIRcommand. This also implicitly deletes the Status Bridge pair and reverses theStatus Bridge path from subsystem B to subsystem A so that it once againappears as it was originally established from subsystem A to subsystem B.

� Optionally, delete the two PPRC paths from subsystem A to subsystem B usingthe CDELPATH command.

Snap to Primary

Before the PPRCSnapShot hardware feature and Snap to Primary becameavailable, data could only be snapped between two non-PPRC (simplex mode)devices or from a PPRC Primary device to a simplex device, but never from asimplex device to a PPRC Primary device.

With the PPRCSnapShot hardware feature but without Snap to Primary, data canbe snapped between two non-PPRC (simplex mode) devices or from one PPRCPrimary device to another PPRC Primary device when both pairs are established tothe same secondary StorageTek V960 or V2X.

When both the PPRCSnapShot hardware feature and Snap to Primary are present,all of the previously mentioned capabilities are supported plus the new capability ofsnapping data from non-PPRC simplex devices to PPRC Primary devices.

Note: The PPRCSnapShot hardware feature is a pre-requisite for Snap to Primary.

Operational ConsiderationsSnap to Primary has only one operational consideration to be aware of. Multiplesuccessive Snap to Primary operations to the same PPRC Primary may experiencefailures when the PPRC Primary is in the Duplex Pending state. This considerationapplies to both data set and volume level Snap to Primary operations to the samePPRC Primary volume.

You can choose to wait until the PPRC pair has returned to the Duplex state beforeattempting the next Snap to Primary or use the following technique:

1. Establish the appropriate PPRC paths as you normally would.

2. Establish the appropriate PPRC pairs and allow them to fully synchronize intothe Duplex state.

3. Suspend the appropriate PPRC pairs.

4. Execute Snap to Primary operations to the suspended PPRC Primaries.

5. Resynchronize (unsuspend) the PPRC pairs using the CESTPAIR commandwith the MODE(RESYNC) parameter and allow them to fully synchronize intothe Duplex state.

6. Re-suspend the appropriate PPRC pairs.

7. Repeat steps 4-6 as needed.

PPRC Remote SnapShot

PPRCfcn

PPRCfcn replaces Standard PPRC and PowerPPRC and is supported only on the| V2Xf/V2X4f. PPRCSnapShot continues to be a separate feature and includes| support for the Snap to Primary and Remote SnapShot functions.

PPRCfcn is neither pure FICON nor pure Fibre Channel. Instead, it is aStorageTek-proprietary, upper-level protocol based on both. As such, PPRCfcnnatively supports longer point-to-point distances than ESCON. PPRCfcn alsoperforms significantly better than ESCON due to less channel overhead and theincreased size of data frames.

PowerPPRC Bridge Devices and SCSI DevicesPowerPPRC Bridge devices and SCSI devices are no longer supported on the V2Xf.If you plan to upgrade an existing V2X or V2X2 subsystem to a V2Xf, you mustperform the following before first starting the hardware upgrade:

1. Delete all non-Bridge PPRC pairs on the affected V2X or V2X2

2. Delete all Bridge PPRC pairs on the affected V2X or V2X2

3. Delete all PPRC paths on the affected V2X or V2X2

4. Delete all Bridge devices

Note: Failure to delete all Bridge devices before the hardware upgrade will resultin the inability to IML the V2Xf. A backout of the hardware upgrade, deletion of allBridge devices, and a repeat of the hardware upgrade is then required to recoverfrom this condition.

System Adapter IDentifier (SAID) Values| The System Adapter IDentifier (SAID) values are specified in the LINKS parameter| of the SVAA PPRCopy ESTPATH command and are different between V2X and| V2Xf models. See Table 8-2 on page 8-120 for the SAID values defined for SVA| devices.

| The SAID values are also used when you are configuring PPRC ICKDSF or TSO| commands.

| World Wide Node Name (WWNN) Values for FICON Cascaded Switch| Support| To provide cascaded switch support in a PPRCfcn (FICON) Storage Area Network,| the PPRC path utilizes a World Wide Node Name (WWNN) for address resolution.| A WWNN value, 16 hexadecimal digits long, is unique to each SVA subsystem and| may be displayed from the Detached Operator Panel (DOP). It is specified in the| SVAA PPRCopy ESTPATH and PPRCopy DELPATH commands for the primary| and secondary subsystems. See Chapter 8, “SVAA Subcommands and| Commands” for the complete command syntax.

PPRC Remote SnapShot

The primary benefit of PPRC Remote SnapShot is that you can now use SnapShotto replicate volumes on a remote SVA subsystem without the need for direct hostconnectivity to the remote subsystem.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-11

PPRC Remote SnapShot

PPRC Remote SnapShot allows a PPRC Secondary volume to be snapped toanother functional volume on the same remote SVA subsystem as the Secondaryvolume. A request for a PPRC Remote SnapShot is sent to a Source (PPRCPrimary) volume on the local subsystem, is transferred to the PPRC Secondaryvolume on the remote subsystem using the PPRC connection, and then theSecondary volume on the remote subsystem is snapped to the designated Targetvolume on the remote subsystem.

Note: A PPRC Remote SnapShot can be performed on a single subsystemassuming the necessary physical "loopback" connection has been made. While asingle subsystem configuration is not recommended for disaster recovery, such aconfiguration may be useful for testing purposes only.

The SVAA SNAP VOLUME subcommand has been enhanced to allow a remotefunctional volume to be specified as the Target volume.

PPRC Remote SnapShot Operational RequirementsPPRC Remote SnapShot has the following requirements:

� PPRC Remote SnapShot is a volume-level operation only; PPRC RemoteSnapShot of data sets is not supported.

� PPRC Remote SnapShot is supported between two V2X subsystems, betweentwo V2X2 subsystems, or between V2X and V2X2 subsystems

� The PPRCSnapShot hardware feature must be installed on the both the localand remote subsystems.

� The microcode support for PPRC Remote SnapShot must be installed on boththe local and remote subsystems.

� The SVAA PTF support (L2P00BI for MVS, L2P00BJ for VM) and SnapShotPTF support (L2P00AF for MVS, L2P00AG for VM) for PPRC RemoteSnapShot must be installed.

General Requirements for Source, Secondary, and TargetVolumes

1. The volumes must be defined as CKD or SCSI volumes

2. The volumes must be enabled - CKDENA(YES) or SCSIENA(YES)

3. The volumes must be write enabled - CKDRW(YES) or SCSIRW(YES)

4. The volumes cannot be PAV Aliases

5. The volumes cannot be PowerPPRC Bridge volumes

Source Volume Requirements

1. A Source volume must be a PPRC Primary volume in the Duplex state. ASource volume cannot be a PPRC Secondary volume, a simplex (non-PPRC)volume, or a PPRC Primary volume in the Suspended or Pending states

2. A Source volume may be online or offline to host systems

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N2-12 SVAA Configuration and Administration

PPRC Remote SnapShot

Secondary Volume Requirements

1. A Secondary volume must be a PPRC Secondary volume in the Duplex state.A Secondary volume cannot be a simplex (non-PPRC) volume or a PPRCPrimary volume

2. A Secondary volume must be offline to all host systems (i.e., no path groupsestablished)

3. A Secondary volume must have the same virtual device type (3380, 3390, orSCSI) as the Source volume

Target Volume Requirements

1. A Target volume must be a simplex (non-PPRC) volume. A Target volumecannot be a PPRC Primary volume or a PPRC Secondary volume

2. A Target volume must be offline to all host systems (i.e., no path groupsestablished)

3. A Target volume must have the same virtual device type (3380, 3390, or SCSI)as the Secondary volume

PPRC Remote SnapShot Operational ConsiderationsUsers of PPRC Remote SnapShot should be aware of the following:

� A PPRC pair cannot be established between volumes with different numbers ofcylinders if the Primary volume has a larger number of cylinders than theSecondary volume.

� A PPRC pair can be established between volumes with different numbers ofcylinders if the Secondary volume has a larger number of cylinders than thePrimary volume, but this is not recommended for the following reasons:

- This prevents the use of P/DAS to swap volumes back to the originalconfiguration since the Secondary volume is now smaller than the Primary;configuration symmetry is recommended for ease of diaster recovery

- Additional user action (ICKDSF REFVTOC) is required on z/OS systems tobe able to use the extra capacity on the Target volume since theVTOC/VTOCIX copied from the Secondary volume does not "know" aboutthis extra space

Performing PPRC Remote SnapShotsUse the following steps as a guide to setting up and performing PPRC RemoteSnapShots:

1. If you already know what volume you want to use as a Source volume on thelocal subsystem, proceed to the next step, otherwise:

a. Define the Source volume on the local subsystem. This will become aPPRC Primary volume once you fully establish the PPRC connection (pathand pair)

b. Initialize the newly-defined Source volume using ICKDSF

c. Vary the newly-defined Source volume online

d. Place your user data on the newly-defined Source volume

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-13

2. If you already know what volume you want to use as a Secondary volume onthe remote subsystem (Warning: any data that exists on this volume will bedestroyed when the PPRC pair is established) proceed to the next step,otherwise:

a. Define the volume on the remote subsystem that will become your PPRCSecondary volume once you fully establish the PPRC connection. Thisvolume must have the same virtual device type (3380, 3390, or SCSI) asthe Source volume

3. If you already know what volume you want to use as a Target volume on theremote subsystem (Warning: any data that exists on this volume will bedestroyed when the PPRC Remote SnapShot is performed) proceed to thenext step, otherwise:

a. Define the Target volume on the remote subsystem. This is the designatedtarget of the SnapShot and must have the same virtual device type (3380,3390, or SCSI) as the Source and Secondary volumes

4. Establish the appropriate PPRC path(s) between the local and remotesubsystems (refer to the PPRC Configuration Guide) using either the TSOCESTPATH command (MVS only) or the ICKDSF PPRCOPY ESTPATHcommand (MVS or VM)

5. Establish the PPRC pair between the Source (Primary) and Secondaryvolumes (refer to the PPRC Configuration Guide) using either the TSOCESTPAIR command (MVS only) or the ICKDSF PPRCOPY ESTPAIRcommand (MVS or VM). On z/OS systems, an IEA494I message should beissued that confirms the pair is in a Pending state. For example:

IEA494I 8�42,SW8�42,PPRC PAIR PENDING,SSID=8���,CCA=42

On z/VM systems, there is no equivalent message.

6. Wait for the PPRC pair to transition from the Pending state to the Duplex state.On z/OS systems, an IEA494I message should be issued that confirms the pairhas transitioned to the Duplex state. For example:

IEA494I 8�42,SW8�42,PPRC PAIR FULL DUPLEX,SSID=8���,CCA=42

On z/VM systems, you should see the following messages:

ICK�22�3I PPRCOPY ESTPAIR FUNCTION COMPLETED SUCCESSFULLYICK�2231I DEVICE IS NOW A PEER TO PEER REMOTE COPY VOLUME

7. Perform the PPRC Remote SnapShot operation by issuing a SVAA SNAPVOLUME subcommand or by using the SVAA ISPF panels to have thesubcommand issued on your behalf. Refer to Chapter 8 of SVAA for OS/390Configuration and Administration or Chapter 9 of SVAA for VM Configurationand Administration for the syntax of the SNAP VOLUME subcommand and anexample of a subcommand used to perform a PPRC Remote SnapShot.

Parallel Access Volume (PAV) Support

The V2Xf supports the definition and use of Parallel Access Volumes (PAV). PAVprovides the ability to assign multiple unit addresses or UCBs to a functional devicethrough the use of Base and Alias devices.

The Base device is the device on which data is stored. The Alias device representsan alternate unit address from which the Base volume can be accessed.

With PAV, instead of using one unit address to access a volume, the host can useseveral unit addresses: the address of the Base device and any Alias device.Multiple users or applications on the same system can perform multiple I/Os to thesame volume. PAV's ability to perform multiple concurrent I/Os to a volume resultsin a significant reduction in IOS queue times and volume contention. Consequently,I/O response times are also reduced and throughput is increased.

PAV has been implemented on OS/390 and z/OS platforms. Although z/VM doesnot exploit PAV, z/VM does support PAV for its OS/390 and z/OS guests.

The SVAA Server will tolerate an SVA with PAV enabled but does not providesupport for PAV device management. Alias devices and PAV attributes cannot bedisplayed or configured through the SVAA Server.

First-Time User Considerations for PAV� A new hardware feature, available only on the V2Xf, must be installed on your

V2Xf subsystem to enable PAV support. Until the hardware feature is installed,you won't be able to define Alias devices.

� There is no operational difference between CKD functional volumes that youdefined before you installed the PAV hardware feature and CKD functionalvolumes that you will define after you install the PAV hardware feature.

� You can confirm that the PAV hardware feature is installed by using SVAA.The feature will appear as "PAV" on the ISPF Subsystem Configuration Panels(SIBCA00 or SIBCR00) and on the Level 3 output of a LISTCFG SUBSYSTEMsubcommand. You may need to reinitialize SVAA for it to recognize that thehardware feature was installed. See Refreshing SVAA Feature or DeviceMapping Status on MVS later in this chapter to learn how to do this.

� If you fully defined your subsystem with 1365 3390-9 volumes or 4096 3390-3volumes (or some maximal combination thereof) before you installed the PAVhardware feature and now want to install the feature, define some Aliasdevices, and start reaping the performance benefits of PAV, you need to makeroom for your Alias devices. The Non-PAV to PAV Migration Process (below)will help you accomplish this and help insure that your SVAA and HCDdefinitions always match. See PAV Configuration Considerations later in thischapter on the importance of keeping your SVAA definitions consistent withyour HCD definitions.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-15

� To disable the PAV hardware feature on a subsystem, you will have to vary allBase devices on the subsystem offline to all host operating systems to "unbind"the Alias devices, then delete all of the Alias devices on the subsystem. Onlythen can the PAV hardware feature be disabled. Because all Base devices onthe subsystem must be varied offline, this process may be disruptive to youroperations, so the decision to disable the PAV hardware feature on asubsystem should not be taken lightly. The disablement process may bedisruptive but is necessary to insure the integrity of your data.

Non-PAV to PAV Migration Process

1. Determine how many Alias devices that you need for each SVA Virtual ControlUnit (a VCU = 256 devices). Remember that Alias devices "belong" only to theVCU they are defined in. For example, VCU 2 might consist of 64 Basedevices and 192 Alias devices. The number of Alias devices that you needreally depends on your current I/O workload and on your own individualperformance needs.

2. Identify which CKD functional volumes that you want to turn into Alias devices.Many users reserve the lower range of devices in a VCU for Base devices andthe upper range for Aliases. For example, in VCU 2, you might reserve FDIDs200-23F for 64 Base devices, and FDIDs 240-2FF for 192 Alias devices.

3. Install the SVAA support PTFs for PAV. (L2P00AJ for MVS, L2P00AK for VM).HIPER PTF L2P00B5 (MVS only) is also strongly recommended.

4. Install the SVA hardware feature for PAV.

5. Move the data from the CKD functional volumes that you want to turn into Aliasdevices to the other CKD functional volumes that will remain Base devices.

6. Vary offline to all host operating systems the CKD functional volumes that youwant to turn into Alias devices.

7. Delete these offline CKD functional volumes using the SVAA ISPF panels orthe DELETE DEVICE subcommand. You won't be able to delete a functionalvolume unless it is varied offline to all host operating systems.

8. Have your systems programmer change the HCD definitions for these deleteddevices from Bases to Aliases, but remember that the device type (3380 or3390) of the Alias must be the same as the device type of the Base. 3380Bases cannot utilize 3390 Aliases; 3390 Bases cannot utilize 3380 Aliases. Forexample, unit address 7240 is currently genned as a 3390B. Use HCD tochange it to a 3390A. Also have your systems programmer review theappropriateness of the HCD WLMPAV parameter setting for the new Aliasdevices at this time.

9. Have your systems programmer activate the new HCD definitions. Device-levelchanges can usually be done dynamically and without a system or applicationoutage. The key HCD requirement is that the device to be changed must beoffline to all host operating systems. If you are following this process, you havealready satisfied that requirement.

10. Reinitialize SVAA for it to recognize that the HCD device definitions havechanged. Take one of the actions listed in Refreshing SVAA Feature orDevice Mapping Status on MVS later in this chapter.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N2-16 SVAA Configuration and Administration

11. Define the new Alias devices using the SVAA ISPF panels or the DEFINEDEVICE subcommand and relate each new Alias device to an existing Basedevice.

12. Use RMF reports or other performance-monitoring software products to confirmthat PAV is in use and to quantify the performance benefit of PAV on youroperations.

For additional information about PAV, consult IBM's TotalStorage Enterprise StorageServer Model 800 documentation.

PAV Configuration Considerations Important!

Always keep your V2Xf Base and Alias device definitions consistent with yourHCD Base and Alias device definitions.

The following sections demonstrate what can happen if definitions are notconsistent. The first scenario describes the situation where HCD has a devicedefined as a Base, but the device has been defined incorrectly as an Alias on theV2Xf. The second considers the reverse scenario where a device is defined as anAlias in HCD and as a Base to V2Xf.

HCD Base but V2Xf AliasIf a device is defined in HCD as a Base but is misdefined to the V2Xf as an Alias,you should correct this problem by deleting the misdefined V2Xf Alias and then, ifappropriate, redefining it as a Base. Do not allow misdefined Aliases to exist asthey can create a potential data integrity exposure, as explained below.

SVAA will attempt to identify misdefined Aliases and can issue SIB2950W andSIB2943E messages to help you correct this problem.

SIB2950W

Misdefined Aliases may be reported during SVAA initialization (or reinitialization ofthe Device Mapping Queue) by SIB2950W messages with Failure reason 5:

SIB295�W Devices not mapped to TSTA, Failure = 5: 7A��-7A5F,7AC�-7ADE.SIB295�W Devices not mapped to TSTA, Failure = 5: 7B�4-7B�6,7B13-7B18.

SIB2943E

If the related Base device of a misdefined Alias is online at the time SVAA isinitialized (or the Device Mapping Queue is reinitialized), the misdefined Alias maybe identified by a SIB2943E message with return code 105 and reason code 2, anda SIB2950W message with Failure reason 1:

SIB2943E Device mapping queue function request 7 failed fordevice 7B�4. Return code= 1�5, reason code= �������2.

SIB2943E Device mapping queue function request 7 failed fordevice 7B�5. Return code= 1�5, reason code= �������2.

SIB295�W Devices not mapped to TSTA, Failure = 1: 7B�4-7B�5.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-17

Important!

Check your V2Xf definitions to confirm that the device is in fact a misdefinedalias before deleting any devices. A return code of 105 in the SIB2943Emessage and a Failure reason code of 1 in the SIB2950W message can occurfor reasons that are unrelated to misdefined Aliases.

Besides the SIB2950W message issued by SVAA, the DEVSERV QPAV commandcan be used to compare the HCD and V2Xf definitions and detect mismatches ofthis kind:

Host Subsystem Configuration Configuration ---------------- ------------------- UNIT UNIT UA

NUM. UA TYPE STATUS SSID ADDR. TYPE---- -- ------ -------- ---- ---- ----------7B12 �� BASE NOT-BASE 7B12 �� ALIAS-�2���� 1 DEVICE(S) MET THE SELECTION CRITERIA

ICKDSF Implications

Because the misdefined Alias is genned as a Base, ICKDSF will not reject theattempt to initialize the device. Worse, because you have related the misdefinedAlias to a correctly defined Base, ICKDSF will initialize the Base and destroy anyuser data that was on the volume.

Example

1. Device 7B02 is genned as a Base and is correctly defined to the V2Xf as aBase.

2. Device 7B12 is genned as a Base and is misdefined to the V2Xf as an Alias.

3. Device 7B02 is initialized, varied online, and user data is written to the volume.

4. An ICKDSF INIT job is run that incorrectly specifies device 7B12 as the deviceto be initialized.

5. The contents of device 7B02 are destroyed because 7B12 was misdefined asan Alias of 7B02.

6. Typically, at this point the misdefined Alias is boxed by the operating system.

Note: Even though the ICKDSF initialization of a misdefined Alias appears tobe successful, you will not be able to vary the device online:

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N2-18 SVAA Configuration and Administration

HCD Alias but V2Xf BaseIf a device is defined in HCD as an Alias but is misdefined to the V2Xf as a Base,you won't be able to initialize the device:

INIT UNIT(7BFF),NOCHECK,NOVAL,NORCLM,DEVTYPE(339�) + VTOC(�,1,14),INDEX(1,�,15),VOLID(XX7BFF),OWNER(XXX) + PURGE,NOVERIFY

ICK31�23I INVALID UNITADDRESS, SYSNAME OR DDNAME SPECIFIED.ICK3���3I FUNCTION TERMINATED. CONDITION CODE IS 12

Furthermore, you won't be able to vary the device online:

V 7BFF,ONLINEIEE313I 7BFF UNIT REF. INVALID

Because the device is genned as an Alias and can't be initialized or varied online,there is no way to write user data to the device.

Even though no data integrity exposure exists for this case, you should still correctthe problem by deleting the misdefined V2Xf Base, and then, if appropriate,redefining the device as an Alias and relating it to a correctly defined Base.

Static and Dynamic PAV Device ManagementTo statically manage a PAV device, specify WLMPAV=NO when a device is definedin HCD. To dynamically manage a PAV device, specify WLMPAV=YES and enabledynamic alias management from the Workload Manager (WLM) ISPF panels. Referto IBM's MVS Planning: Workload Management and HCD Planning for moreinformation.

PAV DifferencesOn the V2Xf, PAV Base devices are exactly the same as the CKD functionalvolumes that you have used on previous SVA hardware. PAV Alias devices arenew and do not actually consume virtual capacity or additional back-end storage.

Other differences in SVAA operation for PAV Alias devices are as follows:

� Alias devices cannot be the source or target of an online or offline volume ordata set snap.

� Dynamic and Interval DDSR do not release space on Alias devices since spacecannot be allocated on Aliases.

� Alias devices are excluded from all SRP data collection, so performance andspace utilization statistics are not reported for Aliases.

� Even though the number of cylinders cannot be specified for an Alias deviceitself, an Alias device can be defined and related to a Base device that is aLarge Volume or a FlexVolume.

� In ISPF panel and SVAA command output, the number of cylinders andfunctional capacity of Alias devices is always reported as zero.

� Alias devices cannot be used as ECAM devices.

� Alias devices or paths to Alias devices cannot be varied online or offline toz/OS or OS/390 operating systems.

� Alias devices cannot be initialized using SVAA. As a rule, you should notattempt to initialize Alias devices using ICKDSF because of the potential data

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-19

integrity exposure when a genned Base is misdefined to the V2Xf as an Alias.See “PAV Configuration Considerations” on page 2-17 for more information.

� Alias devices are not mapped by SVAA Device Mapping. Specification ofAliases in a Device Inclusion or Device Exclusion table is ignored.

� The CACHE, CKDENABLE, CKDREADWRITE, DASDFASTWRITE, NAME,and PRIVILEGEDECAM attributes cannot be changed for Alias devices.

� The QUERY DEVICE subcommand does not display information about PAVAlias devices. Use the DISPLAY DEVICE and LISTCFG DEVICEsubcommands instead.

� You cannot change the PAV Type (Base or Alias) of a device without deletingand redefining the device. If you change the PAV Type of a device, make surethat the change is consistent with your device definitions in HCD.

� The device type (3380 or 3390) of an Alias device must always match that ofits related Base device. This requirement does not prevent an Alias from beingdefined to a Base device with a larger or smaller capacity, including a LargeVolume or a FlexVolume, but it does prevent any attempt to define an Alias ofone device type to a Base of a different device type. For example, a 3380-JAlias cannot be defined and related to a 3390-9 Base, but a 3390-9 Alias canbe defined and related to a 3390-3 Base.

This requirement also does not prevent an Alias from being reassigned to aBase device with a larger or smaller capacity, including a Large Volume or aFlexVolume, but it does prevent any attempt to reassign an Alias of one devicetype to a Base of a different device type. For example, a 3380-J Alias cannotbe reassigned to a 3390-9 Base, but a 3390-9 Alias can be reassigned to a3390-3 Base.

� An Alias device can be reassigned to a different Base device eitherautomatically by the Workload Manager (WLM) component of an OS/390 orz/OS operating system, or manually by using the ALTER DEVICEsubcommand. An Alias must be assigned to a Base device when the Alias isintially defined.

� A Base device is not required to have any related Alias devices; if a Base doeshave Aliases, they must all be defined within the same Virtual Control Unit(VCU); crossing VCU boundaries is not allowed. Since a VCU has a maximumof 256 devices, one Base device can be defined with up to 255 Aliases, or 128Base devices can be defined with 1 Alias each, etc..

� An Alias device can be defined only after its related Base device is defined.You cannot define a Base and its related Aliases in a single define operation.This ensures data integrity and the correct interaction of the V2Xf with hostoperating systems.

� The rules for deleting Base and Alias devices are as follows:

- To delete a CKD or SCSI device (non-PAV, has no Aliases)

1. Vary the device offline to all host operating systems

2. Delete the device

- To delete a PAV Base device that does not have Aliases

1. Vary the Base device offline to all host operating systems

2. Delete the Base device

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N2-20 SVAA Configuration and Administration

- To delete a PAV Base device that has Aliases

1. Vary the Base device offline to all host operating systems

2. Delete each Alias related to the Base; use DISPLAY DEVICE orLISTCFG DEVICE to determine the Aliases to be deleted. You cannotdelete a Base and its related Aliases in a single delete operation.

3. Delete the Base device

- To delete a PAV Alias device that is related to an online Base

1. Vary the Base device offline to all host operating systems

2. Delete the Alias device

- To delete a PAV Alias device that is related to an offline Base

1. Simply delete the Alias device

- To delete a misdefined PAV Alias (genned as Base, defined as Alias)

1. Simply delete the Alias device

Note: In this special case only, it does not matter whether the Baseis online or offline. Since the host operating system did not establisha path group to the Alias when it was misdefined, it can be safelydeleted without requiring that the Base device be varied offline.

Refreshing SVAA Feature or Device Mapping Status on MVS

After the SnapShot, PPRC, PAV, or PPRCSnapShot features have been enabled ordisabled on the SVA hardware, the SVAA software generally does not recognize thata feature change has occurred.

If you configure channels online with the MVS CONFIG command, or attachdevices to a MVS guest system from VM, and these devices were not accessible atthe time the SVAA subsystem was initialized, SVAA has no knowledge of thesedevices and considers them as not defined to the host it is running on.

To make SVAA recognize that the availability of a hardware feature has changed, orrefresh SVAA's knowledge of newly accessible devices that have not yet beenvaried online, take one of the following two actions:

� Partially reinitialize the SVAA subsystem using the SIBMVSS program thatspecifies an ALTER SSNAME command of the following form:

ALTER SSNAME( NAME(ssname) REINIT RIM(DMQ)

For more information about SIBMVSS, refer to the step titled “Initializing theSVAA Subsystem with SIBMVSS” in the SVAA for OS/390 Installation,Customization, and Maintenance guide. If the SVAA address space (theSIBMAIN program) is running, it does not need to be stopped to reinitialize theSVAA subsystem.

� Terminate and initialize the SVAA subsystem using the SIBMVSS program.

Note: If the SVAA address space (the SIBMAIN program) is running, it must bestopped before the SVAA subsystem can be terminated.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Overview 2-21

Note that an IPL of the relevant MVS system and a subsequent initialization of theSVAA subsystem also accomplishes a refresh of feature and device information, butthis action should be taken only as a last resort.

FlexVolumes and Large Volumes

FlexVolume support allows the definition of variable sized 3380 or 3390 functionaldevices. Large Volume support allows the definition of 3390-9 functional deviceswith 32760 cylinders. See Table 1-1 for a summary of the SVA models andmicrocode levels that support Large Volumes and FlexVolumes.

FlexVolume Operational RequirementsFlexVolumes have the following requirements:

� FlexVolumes are supported only on V2X, V2X2, and V2Xf subsystems.

� The microcode support for FlexVolumes must be installed on a V2X/V2X2/V2Xfsubsystem before FlexVolumes can be defined.

� The SVAA PTF support (L2P00BF for MVS, L2P00BG for VM) for FlexVolumesand Large Volumes must be installed before FlexVolumes can be defined usingSVAA.

� The maximum virtual capacity of a V2X, V2X2, or V2Xf subsystem is notincreased by FlexVolume support. You cannot define more than 1365 3390-9or more than 4096 3390-3 functional devices just because some or all devicesare defined as FlexVolumes.

Large Volume Operational RequirementsLarge Volumes have the following requirements:

� Large Volumes are supported only on V2Xf subsystems.

� The microcode support for Large Volumes must be installed on a V2Xfsubsystem before Large Volumes can be defined.

� The SVAA PTF support (L2P00BF for MVS, L2P00BG for VM) for FlexVolumesand Large Volumes must be installed before Large Volumes can be definedusing SVAA.

� The maximum virtual capacity of a V2Xf subsystem is not increased by LargeVolume support. You can define approximately 417 32760 cylinder devices -the equivalent to 1365 3390-9 devices or 4096 3390-3 devices.

� Large Volumes must be defined as 3390-9 CKD devices with 32760 cylinders.

� Large Volumes cannot be defined as SCSI, PPRC Bridge, or PAV Aliasdevices.

SnapShot and PPRC Considerations for FlexVolumes and Large VolumesLarge Volumes and FlexVolumes do not change the current behavior or impose anynew restrictions on SnapShot or PPRC, but users of Large Volumes andFlexVolumes should be aware of the following:

� Volume SnapShot between devices with different numbers of cylinders is notsupported.

� A PPRC pair cannot be established between devices with different numbers ofcylinders if the Primary device has a larger number of cylinders than theSecondary device.

� A PPRC pair can be established between devices with different numbers ofcylinders if the Secondary device has a larger number of cylinders than thePrimary device, but this is not recommended for the following reasons:

- This prevents the use of P/DAS to swap devices back to the originalconfiguration since the Secondary device is now smaller than the Primary;configuration symmetry is recommended for ease of diaster recovery

- Additional user action (ICKDSF REFVTOC) is required on z/OS systems tobe able to use the extra capacity on the Secondary volume since theVTOC/VTOCIX copied from the Primary volume does not "know" about thisextra space

OS/390 Environment

SVAA Input

In the OS/390 environment, there are two basic ways of entering input to SVAA:

� With the SVAA set of ISPF panels, as defined for your installation.

Chapter 7, “Using the SVAA Panels” explains how to use the panels.

� With SVAA subcommands.

Chapter 8, “SVAA Subcommands and Commands” is an alphabetical referenceof the SVAA subcommands and their parameters.

SVAA SubcommandsSVAA includes two utilities through which you enter the SVAA subcommands:

SIBADMIN Under TSO, the SIBADMIN command creates the environment inwhich you can issue SVAA subcommands.

SIBBATCH The SIBBATCH utility enables you to program a sequence of SVAAsubcommands to be run as a batch job.

Note: You cannot issue the SIBADMIN command within aSIBBATCH program.

SVAA subcommands can be issued in several ways:

� From within SVAA initialization routines.

� From TSO:

- at the SIB: prompt (which appears when you enter the SIBADMIN commandby itself).

- within a REXX EXEC

- within a CLIST

� From within a SIBBATCH file.

� On the command line of the SVAA panels (preceded by SIB). See “Using theSVAA Panels” on page 7-2.

SVAA Initialization RoutinesSVAA enables you to specify initialization information that sets or changes theconditions under which the SVAA subcommands are executed.

SIBSTK00

Optionally, you can place initialization information in a parameter library membernamed SIBSTK00 in the data set pointed to by the STKPARMS DD statement in theJCL (both for SIBADMIN and SIBBATCH). If STKPARMS is not defined in theexecuting environment, SVAA looks for SIBSTK00 in SYS1.PARMLIB. SVAAprocesses the commands in SIBSTK00 (or an alternative member) whenever youuse the SIBADMIN or SIBBATCH command.

Note: See “Issuing Subcommands from TSO” on page 3-4 or “SIBBATCH” onpage 3-4 for information about specifying an alternative SYS1.PARMLIB member forinitialization parameters.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N3-2 SVAA Configuration and Administration

OS/390 Environment

The initialization routine should include a SET ECAMDEVICE subcommand to specifythe host address of the device in the SVA subsystem that is to be used for ECAMcommunications. It should also include a SET NONICEBERG subcommand todesignate a 3990 device if you want to collect statistics from a non-SVA subsystem.

PROFSIBA

After processing the commands in SIBSTK00, if you are using SIBADMIN or the SVAApanels, SVAA looks for initialization information in an SVAA macro called PROFSIBA.Information in PROFSIBA overrides parameters specified in the SIBSTK00 member ofparmlib, except that SET ECAMDEVICE subcommands are cumulative (that is,subcommands in both sources are used).

When you are running SVAA under ISPF, you can specify the profile and parmlibnames by using the Session Administration option of the SVAA panels (the valuesyou specify for the Profile and Parmlib options do not take effect until the next timeSVAA is initialized).

Figure 3-1 is an example of REXX statements used to customize PROFSIBA. Youcan find this example in the PROFSIBA member of SIBSAMP. You may include asmany statements as you want in the profile. See Chapter 8, “SVAA Subcommandsand Commands” for information about SET subcommands.

/� REXX profile macro for SIBADMIN �/address SIB"set case(mixed)""set ecamdev(1��)"exit

Figure 3-1. Sample REXX profile macro for SIBADMIN

Figure 3-2 is an example of a CLIST for customizing PROFSIBA. You can find thisexample in the PROFSIBC member of SIBSAMP. You may include as manystatements as you want in the CLIST; see Chapter 8, “SVAA Subcommands andCommands” for information about SET subcommands.

Note: When you copy PROFSIBC from SIBSAMP, rename it PROFSIBA before youuse it.

OS/390 Environment

Issuing Subcommands from TSOTo issue SVAA subcommands from TSO, use the SIBADMIN command. The generalform of the command is:

��──SIBADMIN─ ──┬ ┬───────────────────── ─subcommand─ ──┬ ┬─────────────────────────── ────��└ ┘──=PARMLIB=membername │ │┌ ┐─ ───────────────

└ ┘─(─ ───� ┴parameter(values) ─)─

Use the optional =PARMLIB= parameter to override SIBSTK00, the default parmlibmember that is used in SIBADMIN processing.

A subcommand of SIBADMIN can be:

� Any of the SVAA subcommands described in Chapter 8, “SVAA Subcommandsand Commands.”

� Any of the SVAA subcommands described in the SVAA for OS/390 Reportingmanual.

� A TSO command.

Note: The maximum allowable length of a SIBADMIN command, including itssubcommands and parameters, is 950 characters, including blanks.

To process the subcommands, a REXX addressing environment called SIB isestablished. When running, SVAA displays the SIB: prompt, at which you can enterSIBADMIN subcommands. Type end to leave SVAA.

Issuing Subcommands in SVAA Batch Jobs or MacrosIssuing SVAA subcommands in a batch program or a macro is especially effective ifyou want to issue the same set of subcommands at regular intervals, such as dailyor weekly. You can issue the same subcommands in batch jobs or macros that youcan issue in SIBADMIN.

In processing subcommands in SIBBATCH or macros, any error that exceeds thevalue set by the SET MAXRC subcommand causes the program to terminate with anappropriate error message and return code.

SIBBATCH

To run SVAA in batch mode, run the SIBBATCH JCL (shown in Figure 3-3 onpage 3-5) and include appropriate SYSIN statements containing subcommands ofSIBBATCH. The general form of these statements is:

��─ ─subcommand─ ──┬ ┬─────────────────────────── ───────────────────────────────────────�� │ │┌ ┐─ ─────────────── └ ┘─(─ ───� ┴parameter(values) ─)─

A subcommand of SIBBATCH can be:

� Any of the SVAA subcommands described in Chapter 8, “SVAA Subcommandsand Commands.”

� Any of the SVAA subcommands described in the SVAA for OS/390 Reportingmanual.

It is not necessary to provide DCB parameters for the SYSTERM and SYSPRINT datasets. However, if you wish to do so, use:

RECFM=VBA,LRECL=137,BLKSIZE=23476

The SVAA parameter library contains a member called SIBSTK00, which can specifycommon startup options, such as SET ECAMDEVICE. Startup commands can alsoappear in the SYSIN data set. If there is no STKPARMS DD statement, but SIBSTK00appears in SYS1.PARMLIB, SVAA uses the version in SYS1.PARMLIB.

Note: To specify an alternative parmlib member for initialization, use the followingEXEC statement in the above JCL:

//STEP1 EXEC PGM=SIBBATCH,PARM='=PARMLIB=membername'

Here, membername, which can be up to eight characters, overrides SIBSTK00, thedefault SYS1.PARMLIB member used in SIBBATCH processing.

It is recommended to use either the SIBCTRAN or CTRANS DD statement to ensure theuse of the correct SAS/C macros contained in the SVAA SACLINK dataset. For anexample of the use of SIBCTRAN, see the SIBCTUM member of the SIBSAMP library.

Command Output

The output from the utility commands from a TSO user or batch program(informational messages, error messages, and report output) is handled by defaultas follows:

� In foreground TSO, SVAA sends the command’s message output to theterminal.

� In background TSO, SVAA sends the reports and error messages to the dataset named in the SYSTSPRT DD statement.

� In batch, SVAA sends reports and error messages to the data set named in theSYSPRINT DD statement.

� SAS/C writes program output to the data set named in the SYSPRINT DDstatement. The statement is optional, but recommended.

OS/390 Environment

� SAS/C writes program error output to the data set named in the SYSTERM DDstatement. The statement is optional, but recommended.

� When you start SVAA from the ISPF panels, SVAA sends reports and messagesto REXX variables.

You can change the destinations for messages and reports with the OUTMSG (formessages) and OUTFILE (for reports) parameters of the SET DESTINATIONsubcommand. However, you cannot change the default destination in ISPF.

If you specify a data set (that is, a file specification) as the destination for messagesor reports, SVAA handles the specification as follows:

� If the data set does not exist, SVAA creates it.

� If the data set exists but has not previously been used in this run of SIBADMINor SIBBATCH, SVAA replaces the previous content of the data set.

� If the data set exists and has been used previously by an SVAA subcommandin this run of SIBADMIN or SIBBATCH, SVAA appends the new output to theexisting content.

You can also redirect the message and report output of a particular subcommand ofSIBADMIN. See “Redirecting Subcommand Output” on page 8-10 for moreinformation.

DDSR

Deleted Data Space Release (DDSR)

The SVA's disk array space is a limited resource that must be effectively managed.Reclaiming deleted data space is a critical part of space management. When theoperating system deletes a data set, the VTOC is updated and the space becomesa free extent on the volume. In the SVA, as well as in traditional DASD, this deleteddata still occupies the physical tracks. For traditional DASD, physical tracks resideon a physical volume and cannot be used by any other volume. In the SVAsubsystem, physical tracks (disk array space) are a shared resource and can beused by all functional devices.

To reclaim the tracks in a deleted extent, SVAA provides the Deleted Data SpaceRelease (DDSR) facility. DDSR executes on the OS/390 host and identifieshost-deleted tracks for future free space collection by the SVA Disk Array Controller.After free space collection, the space is available to the entire subsystem.

SVAA provides two methods for reclaiming the deleted tracks:

� Dynamic DDSR, which identifies tracks to release using the OS/390 DADSMexit, and

� Interval DDSR, which identifies tracks to release by scanning the VTOC.

The two functions differ in the way they operate and the way they are invoked onthe OS/390 host.

Dynamic DDSR can be activated without an SVAA address space. It is initializedduring SVAA subsystem initialization—either with the OS/390 Subsystem NameTable (SSN) entry for SVAA or with the SIBMVSS program.

It is invoked during OS/390 DADSM scratch and partial release processing, andcreates SVA subsystem commands that identify the host-deleted functional trackswhose physical space can be reclaimed.

Interval DDSR runs as a subtask of the SVAA address space. It is invoked atuser-specified time intervals to release space for specified subsystems and/orvolumes.

When activated, Interval DDSR scans the VTOCs of the requested SVA volumes thatare online, making note of the free space on each volume. It then creates SVAsubsystem commands that identify the unused functional tracks whose physicalspace can be reclaimed.

Notes:

1. Dynamic and Interval DDSR only identify host tracks whose back-end storage isno longer needed. The task of reclaiming (collecting) the space isaccomplished asynchronously in the Disk Array Controller by the Free SpaceCollection (FSC) function. The timing of the (FSC) task depends on theworkload in the SVA subsystem.

2. Dynamic and Interval DDSR do not release space on Power PPRC Bridgedevices. You should not initialize Bridge devices with ICKDSF or other utilities,vary them online to any host operating system, or place any data on them sinceall user and system data (e.g., VTOCs) can be destroyed during theestablishment of a Power PPRC Bridge pair.

Since the only way to release back-end space on a Bridge device is to deletethe device, move any user data from the Bridge device before deleting thedevice.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N4-2 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Dynamic DDSR

3. Dynamic and Interval DDSR do not release space on PAV Alias devicesbecause space cannot be allocated on these devices. Alias devices consumeno physical space.

Dynamic DDSR

The Dynamic DDSR intercept is normally installed in the OS/390 operating systemduring SVAA subsystem initialization. The OS/390 Subsystem Name Table (SSN)entry for SVAA is used to control whether the intercept is installed and whether it isactive or inactive at the time of system IPL. Dynamic DDSR status can also be setwhen the SVAA subsystem is initialized with the SIBMVSS program. (The SVAA forOS/390 Installation, Customization, and Maintenance manual discusses customizingthe SSN and initializing with SIBMVSS.)

Dynamic DDSR obtains control in the OS/390 DADSM (Direct Access Device StorageManagement) scratch and partial release functions, and issues subsystemcommands to reclaim the physical space for the extents that are being freed.

Note: When Dynamic DDSR is used, it should be active on every OS/390 systemthat has access to SVA volumes. Otherwise, deletions can go unnoticed by the SVAsubsystem.

The RELEASE DYNAMICDATA subcommand (see page 8-139) provides DynamicDDSR control and diagnostic facilities.

Dynamic DDSR Control Parameters

With parameters of the RELEASE DYNAMICDATA subcommand (see page 8-139),you control the status of Dynamic DDSR and specify the devices to be processedfor space release.

� Dynamic DDSR status. The STATUS parameter sets or queries the status ofDynamic DDSR. The status can be set to ACTIVE, INACTIVE, or SIMULATE (see“DDSR SIMULATE Processing” on page 4-13).

� Device selection. The VOLUME, EXCLUDEVOLUME, SUBSYSTEM andEXCLUDESUBSYSTEM parameters let you select or exclude specific devices forprocessing by Dynamic DDSR. The default is to include all functional devicesfor all installed subsystems. See “DDSR Device Selection Rules” onpage 4-10 for an explanation of the effects of inclusion and exclusionparameters on device selection.

Dynamic DDSR Diagnostic Facilities

Dynamic DDSR provides diagnostic facilities in the form of debugging messagesand GTF trace records. You enable the messages and trace records—to obtaindocumentation for problem resolution—by means of two additional parameters ofthe RELEASE DYNAMICDATA subcommand:

� Diagnostic messages. The DEBUG parameter enables or disables DynamicDDSR diagnostic messages.

� Trace records. The TRACE parameter enables or disables the generation ofDynamic DDSR GTF trace records.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Deleted Data Space Release 4-3

SVAA Address Space

DDSR and the SVAA Address Space

Two types of DDSR tasks run in the SVAA address space:

� The DDSR Main Task� One or more DDSR interval tasks

The DDSR Main Task performs global DDSR initialization for DDSR interval tasks.It can also initialize the Dynamic DDSR function. The Main Task also processesexternal DDSR subcommands (issued by an OS/390 console operator, a TSO user,or a batch job), and provides communications services between DDSR tasks in theaddress space.

You can start the DDSR Main Task by means of a parmlib member when the SVAAaddress space is started, and stop the Main Task by terminating the SVAA addressspace.

When the SVAA address space is running, the following system operator commands(documented in Chapter 8, “SVAA Subcommands and Commands”) are used tostart and stop the DDSR Main Task.

� START DSR � STOP DSR

A DDSR interval task is established for each RELEASE INTERVALDATAsubcommand processed by the DDSR Main Task. You can place RELEASEINTERVALDATA subcommands in the DDSR parmlib member (SIBDSRxx), or issuethem from an OS/390 console, a TSO session, or a batch job. Each DDSR intervaltask is identified by a unique user-supplied task identifier.

Each interval task controls a specified set of subsystems and/or volumes. At auser-specified time interval, the task performs space release processing on all ofthe specified volumes that are online to the OS/390 host on which Interval DDSR isrunning. The interval task determines which extents on a volume were unallocatedsince the last interval, and issues subsystem commands to reclaim the disk arrayspace for the extents.

You can start, suspend, resume, or stop an interval task with the START RELEASE,SUSPEND RELEASE, RESUME RELEASE, and STOP RELEASE subcommands. Youcan even change the operating parameters of an interval task while the task isrunning (see the REPLACE parameter of the RELEASE INTERVALDATAsubcommand).

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N4-4 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Interval DDSR

Interval DDSR

Interval DDSR runs as a subtask in the SVAA address space at user-specified timeintervals. The interval subtask should be run once a day on volumes that cannotbe processed by DADSM.

Interval DDSR is initialized by the SVAA RELEASE INTERVALDATA subcommand, withwhich you specify the time intervals at which it will be invoked and the subsystemsand/or volumes for which it will release space.

Notes:

1. Of the volumes specified, Interval DDSR processes only those volumes that areonline to the OS/390 host on which Interval DDSR is running.

2. During the initial synchronization of a PPRC pair, the PPRC Primary volume isin a PENDING state. Interval DDSR cannot process PPRC Primary volumes inthis state. To avoid this situation and also reduce the time it takes to initiallyestablish a PPRC pair, it is recommended that you run Interval DDSR against avolume before it is initially established as a PPRC Primary volume so thatdeleted tracks are not sent to the PPRC Secondary volume. Once the PPRCpair is synchronized and is in the DUPLEX state, Interval DDSR can be run onthe PPRC Primary volume at any time.

3. The time to complete Interval DDSR on a given volume is a function of thenumber of extents that need to be released on the volume; the fact that avolume is a Large Volume does not necessarily mean that Interval DDSR willtake longer to complete on that volume; the fact that a volume is a FlexVolumedoes not necessarily mean that Interval DDSR will take less time to complete onthat volume.

The following SVAA subcommands are used to manage Interval DDSR:

� RELEASE INTERVALDATA � START RELEASE � DISPLAY RELEASE � SUSPEND RELEASE � RESUME RELEASE � STOP RELEASE

All of these subcommands can be issued by a TSO user, an OS/390 consoleoperator, or a batch job.

Interval DDSR Control Parameters

You control the following aspects of DDSR interval tasks with parameters of theRELEASE INTERVALDATA subcommand (see page 8-143):

� Device selection. The VOLUME, EXCLUDEVOLUME, SUBSYSTEM andEXCLUDESUBSYSTEM parameters let you select or exclude specific devices forprocessing by the interval task. The default is to exclude all functional devicesfor all installed subsystems. See “DDSR Device Selection Rules” onpage 4-10 for an explanation of the effects of inclusion and exclusionparameters on device selection.

� Deferred processing. The DEFER parameter gives you the option of deferringspace release processing until after the first time interval has expired. Youmay want to select deferred processing for RELEASE INTERVALDATAsubcommands that are executed during OS/390 initialization, so that the space

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Deleted Data Space Release 4-5

Interval DDSR

release function does not immediately begin issuing RESERVEs on volumeswhen critical systems are starting.

� Space release interval. The INTERVAL parameter specifies the time intervalthat is to lapse between space release actions. You specify the releaseinterval as a number of whole minutes with a minimum setting of 0 (zero)minutes. An interval of zero minutes causes the DDSR task to executeimmediately and then terminate (a “one-time” space release).

� Device reserve limit. The RESERVELIMIT parameter sets a limit on the lengthof time that a DDSR task can reserve the VTOC of a volume.

Free Space Release Prioritization Enhancement

Prior to SVAA PTF L2P00BW, Interval DDSR might not finish processingon a volume before the RESERVELIMIT time limit is reached. This mightbe because the maximum value for RESERVELIMIT is in effect, or it mightbe because the value for RESERVELIMIT is set below the maximum butcannot be increased because of performance impacts on the rest of thesystem.

Prior to SVAA PTF L2P00BW, and for heavily fragmented volumes, thenumber of free space extents might be so large as to prevent IntervalDDSR from processing each extent before the RESERVELIMIT time limit isreached.

Prior to SVAA PTF L2P00BW, Interval DDSR did not prioritize spacerelease by free space extent size, consequently the possibility existed forfree space to remain unreleased from the physical back-end storagedevices despite repeated Interval DDSR runs. The problem could beaggravated by the ability to define Large Volumes, but Large Volumes bythemselves do not cause this problem.

With PTF L2P00BW, Interval DDSR now partially prioritizes space releaseby free space extent size. Because any method of prioritization addsoverhead to Interval DDSR processing, and because the number of freespace extents might be very large, free space is not always released in theexact order of descending size, however, the largest single free spaceextent on each volume should always be released first.

� Extent map retention. The EXTENTMAP parameter specifies whether theinterval task is to retain the map of free extents on each volume from oneinterval to the next. If the extent map is retained, it is compared to the freeextents on the volume during the next interval process. This optimizes theperformance of DDSR, although using the extent map can cause DDSR to missthe extents for a data set that is allocated, written, and deleted betweenintervals.

Note: Large Volumes and FlexVolumes do not increase the above-the-linevirtual storage required to retain the map of free extents since support forLarge Volumes and FlexVolumes does not increase the maximum virtualcapacity of the subsystem.

� Parameter replacement. The REPLACE parameter specifies whetherparameter values (volumes and subsystems controlled, processing interval,etc.) entered in the current subcommand are to replace the correspondingparameter values of a running space release task—if a release task with thesame name is already running.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N4-6 SVAA Configuration and Administration

DDSR Implementation

Interval DDSR Messages

Because messages can be issued from any DDSR task running in the SVAAaddress space, a task identifier is included in each message. For interval tasks, thetask identifier is the release identifier specified in the RELEASE INTERVALDATAsubcommand that initiated the task. For the Main Task, the task identifier is“DDSR__MAIN”.

Each Interval DDSR message also includes a time stamp indicating when themessage was issued. This enables you to determine more easily the sequence ofevents in DDSR processing.

Note: Messages issued from the DISPLAY RELEASE subcommand do not contain atime stamp or task identifier. Including this information on the output of theDISPLAY RELEASE subcommand would detract from the relevant information in thedisplay and make the subcommand output more difficult to read.

Interval DDSR Diagnostic Facilities

Interval DDSR provides diagnostic facilities in the form of debugging messages.You enable the messages—to obtain documentation for problem resolution—bymeans of an additional parameter on the RELEASE INTERVALDATA subcommand:

� Diagnostic messages. The DEBUG parameter enables or disables IntervalDDSR diagnostic messages. A SIB4195I message is issued once per volume.SIB4196I and SIB4197I messages are issued multiple times per volume.DEBUG(ON) should be used only at the specific direction of STK Supportpersonnel since a significant number of messages can result.

DDSR Implementation

Figure 4-1 illustrates the implementation of Interval and Dynamic DDSR in OS/390.The SVAA address space runs as a started task in OS/390. The DDSR Main Taskand interval tasks execute as subtasks of the address space. Dynamic DDSRexecutes as an extension to OS/390 DADSM for all jobs running on the system.

In general, you should activate Dynamic DDSR for all SVA volumes in yourinstallation. This means activating Dynamic DDSR on all OS/390 systems that haveaccess to one or more SVA volumes. The syntax for such a subcommand is:

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Deleted Data Space Release 4-7

DDSR Implementation

RELEASE DYNAMICDATA(STATUS(ACTIVE) SUBSYSTEM(�) VOLUME(�))

Once Dynamic DDSR is running to routinely process SVA volume deletions, set upInterval DDSR to process each SVA volume once a day at a time when reserveactivity on volumes is least disruptive. Running Interval DDSR during periods ofheavy activity is undesirable because it places a RESERVE on each volume beingprocessed.

Note: It is not necessary to inactivate Dynamic DDSR to run Interval DDSR. Thetwo DDSR functions can run simultaneously.

If one OS/390 system has access to all SVA volumes, you can start a single IntervalDDSR task running on that one system to process all of the SVA volumes. Anexample of the subcommand syntax (with a release task ID of “INTDDSR”) is:

RELEASE INTERVALDATA(RELID(INTDDSR) INTERVAL(24H) SUBSYSTEM(�) VOLUME(�))

If SVA volumes are not shared among multiple OS/390 systems, set up separateInterval DDSR tasks to ensure that every SVA volume is processed by one of thesetasks.

Since it's possible that Dynamic DDSR may not have been active on all hosts duringthe day, running Interval DDSR on all SVA volumes ensures that any missedhost-deleted space is properly identified and processed.

Running Interval DDSR every day may not always be necessary. If you determinethat running it less often is appropriate, you can submit a “one-time release” with aSIBBATCH job whenever it's needed (once a week, for example). Note that theINTERVAL parameter is set to 0. The syntax for processing all volumes on all SVAsubsystems would be:

RELEASE INTERVALDATA(RELID(INTDDSR) INTERVAL(�) SUBSYSTEM(�) VOLUME(�))

The Space Utilization Summary Report provides a practical way to see if you needto run Interval DDSR. The ALLOC functional capacity is obtained from the VTOCwhile the STORED capacity reflects the functional track directory (FTD). If the datain the “STORED” column exceeds that in the “ALLOC” column, it's time to run IntervalDDSR.

It is also recommended that Interval DDSR be run immediately after reinitializing anSVA volume, after restoring a new SVA volume, and after running a utility such asIBM's DFDSS DEFRAG on a volume.

Notes:

1. When configuring DDSR: If a volume is controlled by Dynamic DDSR, theDynamic DDSR intercept should be activated on all hosts that have access tothat volume, and the volume selection lists for DDSR should include that volumeon all hosts.

2. However, note that: If a volume is controlled by Dynamic DDSR and theDynamic DDSR intercept is inactive on one or more hosts for any period of time,it may be necessary to execute Interval DDSR to reclaim space that may havebeen freed during that period.

Both Dynamic and Interval DDSR should be run to manage space release mosteffectively for SVA subsystems.

The example below assumes the following configuration:

� There are two OS/390 hosts: HOST1 and HOST2.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N4-8 SVAA Configuration and Administration

DDSR Implementation

� There are two SVA subsystems: SUBSYSA and SUBSYSB.

� HOST1 and HOST2 both have access to devices 00 to 4095 on SUBSYSA anddevices 00 to 4095 on SUBSYSB.

Note: For simplicity, the example refers to the device configuration in terms ofdevice numbers. Device selection for Dynamic and Interval DDSR is actuallyspecified in terms of subsystem name and/or volume serial number.

In Figure 4-2, both Dynamic and Interval DDSR are used to control space release:

� Interval Task 1 on HOST1 controls the volumes on devices 00 to 4095 onSUBSYSA.

� Interval Task 2 on HOST2 controls the volumes on devices 00 to 4095 onSUBSYSB.

� The Dynamic DDSR volume selection specification on HOST1 includes thevolumes on devices 00 to 4095 on SUBSYSA and devices 00 to 4095 onSUBSYSB.

� The Dynamic DDSR volume selection specification on HOST2 includes thevolumes on devices 00 to 4095 on SUBSYSA and devices 00 to 4095 onSUBSYSB.

Device Selection Rules

DDSR Device Selection Rules

When you use the VOLUME, EXCLUDEVOLUME, SUBSYSTEM, andEXCLUDESUBSYSTEM parameters with either the RELEASE INTERVALDATAsubcommand or the RELEASE DYNAMICDATA subcommand, SVAA uses thefollowing rules to select the devices to be processed:

1. If there are no inclusion or exclusion parameters:

� For Interval DDSR, no functional devices are selected.� For Dynamic DDSR, all functional devices on all installed subsystems are

selected.

2. If there are any SUBSYSTEM parameters, all devices in subsystems notspecified are excluded from selection, even if the devices are specified inVOLUME parameters.

3. If there are any EXSUBSYSTEM parameters, the devices they specify areexcluded from selection.

4. If there are any VOLUME parameters, any devices not specified are excludedfrom selection.

5. If there are any EXCLUDEVOLUME parameters, the devices they specify areexcluded from selection.

Note: Wildcards and ranges are allowed in inclusion and exclusion parameters.

All of the following examples apply to this sample configuration of three SVAsubsystems, each with five volumes defined:

DDSR SIMULATE Processing

DDSR SIMULATE Processing

DDSR can operate in simulate mode. In this mode all DDSR functions areperformed, including SMF processing, but no disk array space is released. You caninitiate simulated space release in three different ways:

� You can initialize Dynamic DDSR in simulate mode at system IPL time byspecifying the DYNDDSR parameter in the subsystem name table (the IEFSSNxxmember of the SYS1.PARMLIB data set). For example:

SVAA,SIBSSIPL,'KEY(4),DYNDDSR(S)'

(The IEFSSNxx member is discussed in detail in the SVAA for OS/390Installation, Customization, and Maintenance manual.)

� You can place Dynamic DDSR in simulate mode with the RELEASEDYNAMICDATA subcommand. For example:

RELEASE DYNAMICDATA(STATUS(SIMULATE))

� You can place the DDSR Main Task in simulate mode with the SETCHECK(SIMULATE) subcommand. (Either include this subcommand in theDDSR initialization parmlib member, or direct it to the Main Task with the SENDDSR subcommand from a batch job, TSO session, or OS/390 operator console.)

When the Main Task is in simulate mode, any DDSR function that is started orresumed will reactivate in simulate mode. For example, the following commandsequence will suspend all DDSR functions (including Dynamic DDSR and allInterval DDSR tasks), place the Main Task in simulate mode, and thenreactivate all space release functions.

SnapShot

Traditionally, the task of duplicating data in the computer room has consisted ofcopying the data from one place to another, as in copying the data from one diskdevice to the same or to another disk device. StorageTek's duplication method,SnapShot, duplicates data sets or whole volumes without physically moving anydata, thus dramatically reducing the time required for duplication.

Methods of Duplicating Data

This section compares the SnapShot feature with conventional DASD copyprocessing.

Conventional DASD DuplicationHistorically, conventional methods of duplicating DASD data consist of making aphysical copy of the data, either on disk or on tape. These methods require thatany applications updating the data be quiesced for the duration of the copyoperation so that the data being copied is not corrupted. These copies may beaccomplished using any of a variety of programs, such as the IBM DFSMSdss orother utilities.

The Concurrent Copy function is an improvement over the conventional methods inthat it allows data to be copied while applications accessing the data remain active.The data being copied is saved in cache (or elsewhere) until the copy function hasfinished processing; the updates can then be applied to the source data set.

Dual Copy is another improved copy method; it allows a user to copy a volume ontotwo different physical disks. Once the dual copy pair has been established, the3990 controller copies the data from one volume to the other to synchronize thedata. In all future operations, the controller writes updates simultaneously to eachdisk in the dual copy pair. Then, one of the volumes can be used to copy the datato tape while the other volume continues in use for updates.

All of these copying methods enable the user to copy data from one place toanother with some degree of disruption to the applications using the data. Thesemethods require involvement of the host processor, the channel, and the DASDcontroller, and sometimes real and expanded storage.

Duplication Using SnapShotThe StorageTek SnapShot feature dramatically reduces the time required for dataduplication when compared to traditional copying, thus minimizing the downtime forapplications using the data. Furthermore, no additional physical disk or cachespace is used in making the duplicate.

SnapShot accomplishes this duplication quickly because:

� No data is moved� Only new pointers to the original volume or data set are created

The two independent sets of pointers treat the data as if it were two physicallyseparate images. Updates can occur simultaneously to the original data and to theduplicate, without compromising the data in either.

Note: StorageTek uses the term “snap” for the duplication function provided bySnapShot. We also use this term for the result of a snap operation. The data setor volume being duplicated is called the “source” and the object of the duplication iscalled the “target.” That is, with SnapShot, we snap the source onto the target.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N5-2 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Snapping Volumes

These terms suggest that this new form of data duplication is quick, economical ofresources, and easy to use.

Snaps of a data set or volume require a minimum of host resources. The actualsnapping is performed within the disk subsystem. The only physical back-endstorage allocated by the subsystem is for:

� The original data set (shared between the source and target).� Any changes made to the source data set.� Any changes made to the target data set.

You can use a snapped data set as the source of a transfer to tape whileapplications continue to use the original data set or volume.

Invoking SnapShot

SVAA Version 3.1 is a prerequisite for SnapShot.

With SnapShot you can snap volumes or data sets. Use a SNAP DATASET or SNAPVOLUME subcommand of SIBADMIN or SIBBATCH to perform a snap:

� In a batch job� In a REXX EXEC or in a CLIST� Using the TSO command line interface

You can also issue SNAP DATASET or SNAP VOLUME subcommands from ISPFpanels.

The following sections describe how SnapShot snaps volumes and data sets.

Snapping Functional Volumes

You use the SNAP VOLUME subcommand to snap a disk volume on an SVAsubsystem. For data integrity reasons, target volumes shared in a multi-hostenvironment should be offline to all hosts except the host executing the snapoperation. Furthermore, the target volume must be of the same device type andmodel (geometry) as the source volume. FlexVolumes and Large Volumes do notchange this requirement.

Notes:

1. You can snap an offline SCSI volume to an OS/390 3390 volume if SNAPVOLUME's OFFLINE parameter is used. Or you can snap an online SCSIvolume to an OS/390 3390 volume if the SCSI volume has been initialized with adevice number or volser. (This is done with the INIT parameter of the DEFINEDEVICE subcommand or with the INITIALIZE DEVICE subcommand.) However,you cannot snap an OS/390 volume to a SCSI volume.

2. PAV Alias devices cannot be the source or target of a volume snap.

3. The PPRC Remote SnapShot feature allows a PPRC secondary device to besnapped to another functional device on the same remote SVA subsystem asthe secondary device. The PPRCSnapShot hardware feature is a prerequisitefor both the local and remote subsystems.

When the snap is finished, the target volume is an exact duplicate of the sourcevolume. If you specify the COPYVOLID(YES) parameter, the label is retained fromthe source volume and SnapShot varies the target volume offline. If you specify

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SnapShot 5-3

Snapping Data Sets

COPYVOLID(NO), the label of the target is restored and SnapShot varies the targetvolume online.

If the target of a SNAP VOLUME subcommand is not in the same SVA subsystemand partition as the source volume, SnapShot can call a data mover (the DFSMSdssutility) to physically copy the volume.

Note: The fact that you can specify the functional volumes to be used as targetsimplies that there are extra defined volumes available for this use.

Parameters of the SNAP VOLUME subcommand enable you to specify:

� The source volume to be snapped, identified by volser, device number, or DDname (SOURCE, VOLUME, UNIT, and INDDNAME parameters).

� An existing target volume, identified by volser, device number, or DD name(TARGET, VOLUME, UNIT, and OUTDDNAME parameters).

� A data mover to be used in case the specified snap cannot be performed(DATAMOVERNAME parameter).

� Whether the source volume is to overwrite data on the target volume (REPLACEparameter).

� Whether the source volser is to be copied to the target (COPYVOLID parameter,described above).

� Whether, when using the COPYVOLID(N) parameter, the target volume is to beconditioned completely or only its label (CONDITIONVOLUME parameter).

� Whether to enable a volume to be snapped when exclusive serialization controlcannot be obtained (TOLERATEENQFAILURE parameter).

� Whether to log diagnostic messages (DEBUG parameter).

� Whether to generate GTF trace records (TRACE parameter).

� Whether the source or target volume can be offline (OFFLINE parameter).

� A remote target functional device when using the RemoteFunctionalDeviceIDand SerialNumber subparameters of the TaRGet parameter.

A complete description of the SNAP VOLUME subcommand and its parametersbegins on page 8-185.

You can specify the same parameters and submit the subcommand with theSPECIFY SNAP VOLUME SUBCOMMAND panel. The panel description begins onpage 7-101.

Snapping Data Sets

You use the SNAP DATASET subcommand to snap the following types of data sets:

� Physical Sequential (PS) data sets� Partitioned (PO) data sets (except TYPE=HFS)� Direct access (DA) data sets� Extended partitioned data sets (PDSE)� Extended format sequential data sets� Striped sequential data sets� Multivolume data sets� The following types of VSAM data sets:

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N5-4 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Snapping Data Sets

- Alternate Index (AI) - ESDS - KSDS - Linear - RRDS - VRRDS - Extended Format

SnapShot does not snap the following types of data sets:

� Catalog data sets� Undefined data sets� ISAM data sets

� VTOCs � Indexed VTOCs� VSAM Volume Data Sets (VVDS)� Individual members of partitioned data sets� GDG base names� Page data sets� Concatenated data sets� Open Edition HFS data sets� Key range data sets� VSAM data sets with IMBED or REPLICATE� Non-VSAM multivolume extended format data sets

Notes:

1. The data set being snapped cannot have zero extents.

2. PAV Alias devices cannot be the source or target of a data set snap.

When you use the SNAP DATASET subcommand, you specify the source data seteither by the data set name or indirectly by referring to a preallocated DD name forthe data set. Similarly you specify the target data set either by its data set name orindirectly by a preallocated DD name. If the target data set does not exist,SnapShot assumes DISP=NEW and creates the data set. If the target does exist,SnapShot uses DISP=OLD or DISP=SHR, depending on whether you specifyEXCLUSIVE or SHARED on the HOSTCOPYMODE parameter and depending on theuse of the TOLERATEENQFAILURE parameter. When you snap to previouslyallocated data sets, all extents for the target data set must reside on a volume thatis currently online and accessible to the host requesting the snap.

SnapShot always attempts to perform a snap, but if a snap is not feasible,SnapShot can call a data mover (the DFSMSdss utility) to duplicate the data set.This is not a snap, but a conventional copy, which takes much longer than a snap.(A snap is not feasible if the target data set is not within the same SVA subsystemand partition as the source data set.)

Note: If the source and target data sets exist on device types other than 3380 or3390, the subcommand fails and the data mover is not invoked.

SnapShot duplicates disk tracks, whether the duplication is a snap or a copy. Tobe usable, the logical components of a defined target must agree with those of thesource. Therefore, a target allocation must have DCB attributes including the dataset organization (DSORG) identical to those of the source. If DCB attributes otherthan the DSORG are not identical, SnapShot uses those of the source, warns theuser that it is doing so, and continues processing. If the DSORG does not match,the snap will fail.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SnapShot 5-5

Snapping Data Sets

Normally, the size of a single extent is not important to the operation of snapping adata set. However, the Partitioned Dataset Access Method requires that themember directory reside within the first extent. For performance reasons, SnapShotdoes not check the size of the member directory, but issues a warning message ifthe first extent of the target is smaller than the first source extent.

SnapShot works with SMS as follows:

� If you specify storage, data, and management classes on the SNAP DATASETsubcommand, SnapShot supplies the classes to DYNALLOC.

� SnapShot does not modify SMS ACS rules in order to accomplish a snapoperation.

� SnapShot uses its “volume preferencing” facility to filter out SMS assignmentsthat are not to the same subsystem as the source. (See “Using VolumePreferencing” on page 5-9 for more information.)

� Prior to allocating a new target data set, SnapShot calls the ACS routines andpasses the following values from the SNAP DATASET subcommand: data setname and volume list, as well as storage class, management class, and dataclass, if specified. No other values are passed to the ACS routines during thisfirst call.

From the first call to the ACS routines, SnapShot obtains the validated SMSclasses. These SMS classes are used by SnapShot to allocate a target VSAMdata set. Thus, when allocating VSAM data sets, SnapShot supports only thefollowing ACS values: data set name, volume list, storage class, managementclass, and data class.

� Allocation of non-VSAM data sets is handled differently. Non-VSAM data setsare allocated using DYNALLOC. SnapShot ignores the SMS classes returned bythe first call of the ACS routines and allows DYNALLOC to handle the SMSprocessing. Thus, for the allocation of non-VSAM data sets, SnapShot supportsall ACS filter variables supported by DYNALLOC.

Parameters of the SNAP DATASET subcommand enable you to specify:

� A data set to be snapped, identified by data set name, style:filename, or DDstatement (SOURCE or INDDNAME parameters).

� A new or existing target data set, identified by data set name, an appropriatestyle and filename, or DD statement (TARGET or OUTDDNAME parameters).

� The volumes to which a data set is to be snapped (ESOTERIC or VOLUMEparameters).

� The SMS storage attributes and management class desired for the new targetdata set (DATACLASS, STORAGECLASS, and MANAGEMENTCLASS parameters).

� Whether a data mover is to be used when the SnapShot criteria for the sourceand target are not met (DATAMOVERNAME parameter).

� Error disposition—whether the target data set is to be kept or deleted when anerror occurs (ERRDISP parameter).

� Whether the target data set is to be cataloged (CATALOG parameter).

� That data sets are to be snapped when a requested level of serializationcontrol cannot be obtained (TOLERATEENQFAILURE parameter).

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N5-6 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Terminology

� That a supported non-VSAM data set be truncated if the target data set issmaller than the source (TOLERATETRUNCATION parameter).

� The maximum number of volumes on which the target data set will be allocated(VOLUMECOUNT parameter).

� The level of serialization control to be obtained for the source and target datasets (HOSTCOPYMODE parameter).

� The name of the base cluster to which the target alternate index is to berelated (RELATE parameter).

� Whether the source data set is to overwrite data on an existing target data set(REPLACE parameter).

� Whether absolute track and unmovable data sets are to be snapped (FORCEparameter).

� Whether to log diagnostic messages (DEBUG parameter).

� Whether to generate GTF trace records (TRACE parameter).

A complete description of the SNAP DATASET subcommand and its parametersbegins on page 8-172.

You can specify the same parameters and submit the subcommand with theSPECIFY SNAP DATASET SUBCOMMAND panel. The panel description begins onpage 7-97.

Considerations for Multivolume Data Sets

SnapShot allows snapping of a single volume source data set to a multivolumetarget data set and vice versa. SnapShot handles multivolume data sets that spanSVAs as a datamover operation.

For multivolume target data sets, not managed by DFSMS, a volume list must bespecified.

Note: When you are using a multivolume data set as the source of a SnapShotoperation, OS/390 allows only 65535 tracks per data set per DASD volume. Youmust ensure that you have enough volumes and tracks available to hold your targetdata set. If they are not available, an error occurs and the snap fails.

Considerations for Source Data Sets

Data sets supplied using the SOURCE parameter must be cataloged. Uncatalogedsource data sets must use the INDD parameter. The source data set must alsohave a unique name, different from the TARGET, if it is supplied.

Snapping to Data Sets of the Same Name

If the source and target data sets of a snap have the same name, and they arenon-SMS, you must use the INDD and OUTDD parameters.

Terminology

This manual may indicate that an action you request is either not allowed or notsupported by SnapShot:

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SnapShot 5-7

VSAM Considerations

� A request is not allowed when the request cannot be fulfilled by SnapShot. Inthe case of a failure or processing stop, SnapShot issues a message.

� A request is not supported if it cannot be evaluated by SnapShot. SnapShotissues no error message in this case and the results may be unpredictable.

New targets for VSAM SnapShot are allocated differently depending on whetherthey are SMS managed. Non-SMS targets have their first volume's total allocationamount requested on the first target volume. Additional space is obtained viaextend processing, as with non-VSAM.

When allocating SMS-managed VSAM data sets, SnapShot supports only thefollowing ACS values: data set name, volume list, storage class, managementclass, and data class. SMS-managed VSAM targets that are single volume areallocated with their original primary and secondary amounts. Extend processingobtains additional space if required. Multivolume targets have their entire allocationquantity requested over the target volumes (supplied by VOLUME, VOLUMECOUNT,number of source volumes) with SMS allocating the extents as required.

A VSAM data set snapped to a multivolume target may have its data componentplaced on a different volume from its index component. If you need to have boththe data component and the index component on the same volume, use theVOLUME parameter of the SNAP DATASET subcommand to specify a target volume.

If the target space cannot be obtained, the SnapShot operation terminates.

Snapping to Existing VSAM Target Data SetsThe VSAM type (that is, KSDS, linear, etc.) for both the source and target data setsmust match or the snap will fail. SnapShot will extend an existing target data set tomatch the size of the source data set. If required, the target attributes will bealtered to match the source attributes, other than VSAM type.

Snapping VSAM Alternate Index Data Sets

An alternate index is a key-sequenced data set containing index entries organizedby the alternate keys of its associated base data cluster records. An alternateindex provides another way of locating records in the data component of a cluster.

SnapShot can be used to snap individual alternate indexes by name. It cannotsnap a Sphere (a related collection of base clusters and alternate indexes) or aPath (a unique catalog entry that provides a named relationship between a basecluster and an alternate index). After snapping an alternate index and a basecluster, it may be necessary to use the IDCAMS DEFINE PATH function to create aPath through which the alternate index can be used to access the base cluster.

Because SnapShot cannot snap a base cluster and all of its related alternateindexes at the same time, care must be taken to ensure the integrity of therelationship between the base cluster and the alternate index. If an alternate indexand its related base cluster are to be snapped together, update activity to the basecluster and alternate index should be quiesced while the snaps are taking place.

Use the RELATE parameter of the SNAP DATASET subcommand when snapping analternate index to specify the base cluster to which the TARGET alternate index will

Volume Preferencing

be related. If the TARGET alternate index has been preallocated, the RELATEparameter is ignored, and the TARGET alternate index will be related to the existingbase cluster name. If the TARGET alternate index is created by SnapShot, and theRELATE parameter is not specified, the TARGET alternate index will be related tothe same base cluster as the SOURCE alternate index.

If the TARGET is created by SnapShot, the UPGRADE attribute of the TARGETalternate index will match the UPGRADE attribute of the SOURCE alternate index. Ifthe TARGET is preallocated, the UPGRADE attribute of the TARGET will not beaffected by the snap.

An SMS-managed alternate index has the same management class and storageclass as its base cluster. The DATACLASS parameter can be used to assign anSMS data class to the TARGET alternate index that is different from the data class ofthe SOURCE.

If the base cluster specified in the RELATE parameter is an extended format dataset, the TARGET alternate index must also be extended format.

Net Capacity Load Considerations

When you are using SnapShot functions with an SVA subsystem, you shouldconsider the effect of the snapped volumes or data sets on the net capacity load(NCL) of the subsystem. When a source is first snapped, the snap consumes noback-end storage because the source and target share the same tracks. No extraspace is needed to accommodate the new volume or data set at this point.

As updates are made, however, new tracks are written to the disk arrays. Themore updates that occur to each of the snaps the more tracks are written on behalfof each. These new tracks occupy more back-end storage as the source and targetdiverge. It is possible that either the source or target are completely rewritten. Thepotential effect on NCL must be considered in this case.

If NCL becomes a concern, you may need to consider how long you keep snappedvolumes or data sets on the SVA subsystem. The length of time you keep thesnaps and the rate at which they become unique because of updates shoulddetermine when the snaps can be deleted to make room for other snaps, or tolower the overall subsystem NCL.

Using Volume Preferencing

Volume preferencing is a facility that enables SnapShot to filter the choice of anSMS target volume for newly allocated data sets. You initialize volume preferencingin one of two ways:

� During SVAA installation, by customizing the IEFSSNxx member ofSYS1.PARMLIB. Volume preferencing can be installed initially as active orinactive, for each OS/390 subsystem.

� During SVAA subsystem initialization or reinitialization, with the SIBMVSScommand. The initial active or inactive state of volume preferencing can bemodified at this time.

See the SVA SnapShot for OS/390 Installation, Customization, andMaintenance manual for more information.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SnapShot 5-9

Volume Preferencing

With volume preferencing initialized as inactive for each OS/390 subsystem, you canuse the SET VOLUMEPREFERENCING subcommand to make the facility active. (Youcan also make the facility inactive again later.)

The QUERY VOLUMEPREFERENCING subcommand enables you to determine thestatus of volume preferencing (active or inactive) for each OS/390 subsystem.

Considerations for Data Sets Spanning SVAs

For data sets with more than one component such as VSAM data sets, differentcomponents may reside on different SVAs. In this case, volume preferencingdictates that one component will be snapped, usually the largest, and the others willbe copied via a data mover. If the target data set is to be dynamically allocated,the allocation will be based on the snapped component.

Similarly, a data set may contain extents that reside on different SVAs. The extentson the volume-preferenced SVA will be snapped; the extents on other SVAs will becopied via a data mover.

Note: NCL will increase only for that portion of the data set that is copied via adata mover.

Security Considerations

SnapShot provides two levels of security: data set or volume-level security andSnapShot command-level security.

� To implement SNAP DATASET, no change is required to your existing securityprocess. The SNAP DATASET subcommand opens the source for input andopens the target for output to verify that the user has proper access to performthe snap.

� Similarly, to implement SNAP VOLUME, no change is required to your existingsecurity process. The SNAP VOLUME subcommand calls SAF with DASDVOLrequests to verify device level access.

� SnapShot implements command-level security by introducing a new resourcerule that can be defined to further enhance your security. Command levelsecurity is definable down to the device or data set level.

� SnapShot supplies user exits to enable you to customize security of commandprocessing to meet your needs.

See the SVA SnapShot for OS/390 Installation, Customization, and Maintenancemanual for more information about security procedures.

SnapShot Volume Selection and PPRC

Unless the Snap to Primary feature is present, a Peer-to-Peer Remote Copy (PPRC)volume is not allowed as a target of a SnapShot but is allowed as a source.Because only a subset of I/O operations is allowed, a PPRC secondary volume isnot allowed as either a source or a target of a SnapShot. If a PPRC secondaryvolume is used as a target or a source of a SnapShot, an error message is issued.However, if Snap to Primary is enabled, a PPRC volume can be the target of aSnapShot. See “Snap to Primary” on page 2-10 for more information.

SnapShot and DFSMSdss

DFSMSdss uses an API, SVAA's Low Level API (LLAPI), to invoke SnapShot. Thissection provides some helpful tips on diagnosing problems with the interactionbetween DFSMSdss, the API, and SnapShot.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SnapShot 5-13

SnapShot and DFSMSdss

SymptomsA problem detected by DFSMSdss typically results in an error message like the onebelow:

ADR735W (��2)-mmmmm(yy), date time USE OF CONCURRENT COPY FAILEDFOR DATA SET dsname ON VOLUME volser, �14.SERIALIZATION WILL BE HELD AND CONCURRENT COPY WILL NOT BE USED.

DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION: ����1791-���5���F

IBM documents this message and its reason code in the MVS System Messagesmanuals. However, the following information may help you to diagnose theproblem:

� The 014 return code indicates that there was an error invoking concurrent copyor SnapShot.

� The system data mover return code and reason code are 00001791-0005000F.These codes are also documented in IBM's MVS System Messages manuals.

- The system data mover return code 00001791 (decimal 6033) indicatesthat the SnapShot operation failed.

- The 0005 portion of the 0005000F system data mover reason codeindicates that an SnapShot-related error has occurred.

- The 000F portion of the 0005000F system data mover reason codeindicates that the SnapShot target is a member of a PPRC pair. Thisreason code is documented in Appendix G's SIBLLRB section of theShared Virtual Array Administrator for OS/390 and VM Messages andCodes manual. This particular error occurs if you attempt to snap to aPPRC primary and you do not have the PPRCSnapShot feature installedalong with Snap to Primary support.

DFSMSdss Restriction for SnapShot on V2X, V2X2, and V2XfAn IBM restriction currently limits DFSMSdss-invoked SnapShots to a subset of2045 out of the 4096 possible online devices that can exist on a V2X, V2X2, orV2Xf. Because the IBM ANTRQST macro is limited to a 32K storage area forholding the results of queries (QRYSIZE parameter is only a halfword), only alimited number of devices (2045) can be returned to DFSMSdss.

Note: The source and target devices must both be present in the list of devicesreturned to DFSMSdss if SnapShot is to be used instead of a physical copy.

"Native" SnapShots (i.e., SnapShots invoked directly through SIBBATCH, the SVAAISPF panels, and the SVAA command-line interface) are not affected by thisrestriction. No similar restrictions are known to exist with any other softwareproduct's use of SnapShot.

Symptoms

Customers encountering this restriction in DFSMSdss batch jobs may receive thefollowing DFSMSdss error message and a return code of 4:

ADR934W (��1)-ALLOC(�1), THE ANTRQST MACRO FAILED DURING ANSQRYDVCS REQUEST WHILE PROCESSING DATA SET dsname.

DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION: ����1CA4-��������

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N5-14 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SnapShot and DFSMSdss

The copy operation is still performed, but DFSMSdss makes a physical copy of thedata rather than use SnapShot. As a consequence, jobs will take longer tocomplete and they will consume additional disk array space.

Using Mixed Device Types and LimitingOnline Devices as a Mitigation Technique

On the V960 and earlier virtual subsystems, both the source and target functionaldevices are always guaranteed to be included in the list of SnapShot-eligibledevices that is returned to DFSMSdss, since less than 2045 online devices can existon these subsystems.

The general requirement for DFSMSdss SnapShot eligibility is that the devices mustbe online and have a 3380 or 3390 device type (if the PowerPPRC and/orPPRCSnapShot hardware features are installed, note that PPRC Secondarydevices are never eligible).

Note: Although offline devices are now supported by native SnapShot, thesedevices are not returned to DFSMSdss and do not count against the 2045 limit. Asnoted before, the 2045 restriction does not apply to native SnapShots.

Because DFSMSdss cannot handle more than 2045 online devices, you may beforced to manipulate two key factors to influence the composition of this list in yourfavor:

� Geometry — Volume SnapShot requires both source and target functionaldevices to have the same device type (3380/3390) and capacity (modelnumber, such as a 3390-3). Defining 2045 3380 functional devices (of thesame capacity) and 2045 3390 functional devices (of the same capacity),therefore avoids the IBM restriction. In this case, it's not where the devices aredefined that is important, it's how many devices are defined that is important.

Data set SnapShot requires both source and target functional devices to havethe same device type (3380/3390). Capacity (model number) is irrelevant, sosimply defining 2045 3380 functional devices (of any capacity) and 2045 3390functional devices (of any capacity) avoids the IBM restriction for data sets.

� Online / Offline status — DFSMSdss-invoked SnapShot requires both sourceand target functional devices to be online, so limiting the number of onlinedevices can avoid the IBM restriction. Again, although offline devices aresupported by native SnapShot, these devices are not returned to DFSMSdssand do not count against the 2045 limit.

Summary of Mitigation Techniques

1. Use native SnapShot instead of DFSMSdss. Other than the normal SnapShotrestrictions, there are no other limitations on the eligibility of source and targetfunctional devices

2. Limit the size of the SnapShot-eligible device list through one or more of thefollowing means:

� Define all functional devices as 3390-9 devices. Since the V2X, V2X2,and V2Xf disk arrays support a maximum of 1365 3390-9 devices (thesame virtual capacity as 4096 3390-3 devices), the restriction can beavoided with no sacrifice in virtual capacity

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SnapShot 5-15

SnapShot and DFSMSdss

� Define 2045 functional devices as 3380s and 2045 functional devices as3390s

� Limit the number of online functional devices to 2045 or less for eachoperating system

� Define a combination of 3390-9 and 3390-3 functional devices below the2045 limit

3. Define two SMS storage groups, one for each half of the V2X, V2X2 or V2Xf,and modify your ACS routines to direct dynamically-created new targetallocations to the same half as the source device

Altering Subsystem Global Characteristics

The name of an SVA subsystem and a subsystem identifier (SSID) for at least onelogical 3990 controller emulated within the subsystem must be defined at the LOPor the DOP. With SVAA (using either a subcommand or ISPF panels) you can:

� Change the subsystem name

� Change SSIDs

� Change the site name (optional)

� On the 9393 or 9500 SVA: Change the default array size (5+2 or 13+2). Theonly array size available on the V2X or V960 SVA is 13+2.

Configuring Functional Devices

The configuration of a functional device may consist of one or more of the followingactivities:

� Defining a device

� Altering the characteristics of a device

� Changing the partition of a device

� Changing the device type of a device

� Deleting a device

� Disabling host access to a CKD or SCSI device

Defining a Functional DeviceTo define the characteristics of a functional device:

1. Define the device to all host operating systems using the I/O configurationprogram (IOCP) or hardware configuration definition (HCD).

If you add devices using OS/390 HCD after the SVA subsystem is initialized, youmust run SIBMVSS using the command

ALTER SSNAME (NAME (ssname) REINIT RIM(DMQ) )

before devices can be accessed by SVAA.

2. Define the device to the subsystem using the SVAA subcommand or panelsnamed in the following table. A PAV Base device must be defined before anyof its related Alias devices can be defined.

3. Initialize the device with ICKDSF or other appropriate utility.

Note: If defining a PAV Alias or Power PPRC Bridge device, do not performthis step. Do not initialize PAV Alias or Power PPRC Bridge devices.

4. Vary the device online.

Note: If defining a PAV Alias or Power PPRC Bridge device, do not performthis step. Do not vary PAV Alias or Power PPRC Bridge devices online to anyz/OS or OS/390 operating system.

Note: Each SVA subsystem has a minimum missing-interrupt handler (MIH) timeoutvalue which must be set for all devices defined to the subsystem. For informationabout setting the MIH timeout value, see the steps for customizing the IECIOSxx andIEFSSNxx members of SYS1.PARMLIB in the SVAA for OS/390 Installation,Customization, and Maintenance manual.

1. Vary the device offline to all host operating systems.

2. Vary all paths to the device offline from all hosts and LPARs.

3. Use the SVAA subcommand or panels named in the following table to deletethe functional device.

4. Optionally, remove all host operating system definitions for the device (usingIOCP or HCD).

The rules for deleting Base and Alias devices are as follows:

� To delete a CKD or SCSI device (non-PAV, has no Aliases)

1. Vary the device offline to all host operating systems

2. Delete the device using the SVAA subcommand or panels

3. Optionally, remove all host operating system definitions for the device

� To delete a PAV Base device that does not have Aliases using the SVAAsubcommands or panels:

1. Vary the Base device offline to all host operating systems

2. Delete the Base device

� To delete a PAV Base device that has Aliases

1. Vary the Base device offline to all host operating systems

2. Delete each Alias related to the Base; use DISPLAY DEVICE or LISTCFGDEVICE to determine the Aliases to be deleted. You cannot delete a Baseand its related aliases in a single delete operation.

3. Delete the Base device using the SVAA subcommand or panels

4. Optionally, remove all host operating system definitions for the device

� To delete a PAV Alias device that is related to an online Base

Defining Additional Privileged ECAM Devices

Note: You cannot define PAV Alias or Power PPRC Bridge devices as ECAMdevices.

To define a device as a privileged ECAM device:

1. Designate the device to be an ECAM device; that is, eligible to communicaterequests to the SVA subsystem.

2. Define the device as privileged; that is, eligible to communicateCategory 1-restricted messages (which alter the subsystem configuration).

The following table identifies the topics and pages in this manual that describe thetasks involved in defining privileged ECAM devices.

Note: It is recommended that you verify that the device is assigned privilegedECAM status. To do this, use the DISPLAY DEVICE subcommand (page 8-55) or theFUNCTIONAL DEVICE SELECTION panel (page 7-36).

Reconfiguring Subsystem Disk Array Capacity

Reconfiguring a subsystem's disk array capacity can involve one or more of thefollowing activities:

� Allocating spares

� Establishing the Test partition's disk array capacity

� Forming additional disk arrays

� Moving disk array capacity from the Test partition to the Production partition

� Removing the Test partition's disk array capacity

� Reconfiguring an existing array

Allocating SparesAllocating spares is the process of re-assigning drive modules from the MATpartition to the Spares partition. To be eligible for allocation as a spare, a drivemodule must be in the MAT partition and have a status of M.A (MAT partition,active).

To allocate one or more spares, use SVAA subcommands or panels to perform thetasks in the following table.

Subcommand Panel

Check for drivemodules with astatus of M.A

LISTCFG DRIVEMODULE (page8-75)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Configuration Tasks 6-11

Configuration Tasks

Establishing the Test Partition's Disk Array CapacityTo establish the Test partition's initial array capacity requires forming one or morearrays for that partition. The procedure is the same as that described in FormingAdditional Disk Arrays (see below).

Note: You cannot form Test arrays on the V2X, V960, or 9500 SVA—only onsubsystems running earlier microcode. See “Functional Differences betweenSubsystems” on page 1-2 for more information.

Forming Additional Disk ArraysTo form additional arrays in either the Production or the Test partition:

1. Decide upon the size of the arrays that you want to form (5+2 or 13+2), andset the Array Size value, if necessary.

Note: You can form a 5+2 array only on the 9393 or 9500 SVA—not on theV2X or V960 SVA.

2. Determine the number of spare drives necessary to form the arrays: multiplythe array size (7 or 15) by the number of arrays to be formed, and add 1 (theminimum number of reserved spares required).

3. Ensure that there are enough drive modules in the Spares partition to form thearrays. Allocate additional spare drive modules if necessary.

4. Form the additional production or test arrays.

5. Verify the increased disk array capacity.

The disk array capacity field or parameter should show an increase, while the% Net Capacity Load shows a decrease.

Moving Disk Array Capacity from Test Partition to ProductionAll drive modules associated with the Test partition can be moved to the Productionpartition. In this process, all Test partition functional device definitions andassociated data are carried forward to the Production partition.

Note: You cannot perform the Move Test Partition operation on the V2X, V960, or9500 SVA—only on subsystems running earlier microcode. See “FunctionalDifferences between Subsystems” on page 1-2 for more information.

To move disk array capacity, use SVAA subcommands or panels to perform thetasks in the following table.

Subcommand Panel

Move all Testpartition drives toProduction partition

MOVE TESTPARTITION (page8-116)

MOVE TEST INTO PRODUCTION (page7-83)

| Configuring V2Xf PPRC with Cascaded FICON Switches in a WWNN| Domain

| To configure the V2Xf PPRC environment with cascaded FICON switches (i.e.,| greater than one switch in series), you need to establish PPRC paths using the| SVAA PPRC ESTPATH command with World Wide Node Name syntax. Once you| have established the PPRC paths, you create PPRC volume pairs using TSO or| ICKDSF. This section provides the necessary steps to configure PPRC for this| environment.

| PPRC configuration in a WWNN domain consists of the following activities:

| � Ensure SVAA PTF L2P00CX and SVA microcode G02.03.xx.00 is installed.

| � Identify the PPRC path configuration information (World Wide Node Name,| SSID, and VCU values) for the primary and secondary storage subsystems.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Configuration Tasks 6-15

Configuration Tasks

| � Identify the PPRC pairs, which will be primary and secondary volumes within| those subsystems with the same device geometry.

| � Connect the FICON interface cables from the primary storage subsystem to the| secondary storage subsystem(s) to be used for PPRC communications. Make| note of the SAID values to be input for the ESTPATH command. These values| are found in Table 8-2 on page 8-120 under the SVAA ESTPATH command.

| � Define the PPRC devices using the SVAA DEFINE DEVICE command if they| do not exist.

| � Establish paths between the primary and up to four secondary storage| subsystems for each pair of VCUs included in the configuration using the SVAA| PPRC ESTPATH command.

| � Establish the volume pairs (primary and secondary) that are to be included in| the PPRC configuration using the ICKDSF PPRCOPY ESTPAIR or TSO| CESTPAIR command.

| � Query the configuration using the SVAA PPRC Query command and verify the| appropriate paths and pairs have been established.

| � Remove established paths by using the SVAA PPRC DELPATH command.

| To establish PPRC paths and pairs:

| � Issue the SVAA PPRC ESTPATH command using SIBADMIN or SIBBATCH| with the following parameters:

| - UNIT| - World Wide Node Name (primary and secondary)| - SSID (primary and secondary)| - VCU (primary and secondary)| - SAID values

| � Establish the PPRC pair(s) using ICKDSF or TSO commands. Refer to the| associated IBM documentation for the syntax and parameters.

| � Issue the SVAA PPRC QUERY and QUERY PATHS commands using| SIBADMIN or SIBBATCH and verify the results.

SVAA Panels

This chapter describes how to use SVAA panels to:

� Set session profile options� Update one or more subsystem configurations� Browse through the current configuration data� Run the drive module utilities on one or more subsystems� Display the status of a drain� Perform Snap Dataset and Snap Volume operations—if you have SnapShot

installed.

You can also accomplish these tasks with interactive subcommands or withsubcommands issued in batch programs, as explained in Chapter 8, “SVAASubcommands and Commands.”

Using the SVAA Panels

This section describes how to use the SVAA panels: how to move through a panel,make field entries, and use the SVAA panel commands.

Using the Command or Option FieldIn the command or option field, you can type:

� An SVAA panel command, such as submit (see “Using the Panel Commandsand Function Keys” on page 7-3)

� An option number on a menu.� A TSO command.� An SVAA subcommand (see below)� An ISPF command. Some useful examples are:

keys Enables you to set your own function key definitions.

panelid Causes the panel ID to appear in the upper-left corner of eachpanel during the current session.

pfshow Displays your current function key definitions at the bottom of thepanel. pfshow off turns off function key display. pfshow tailorlets you specify the number and arrangement of key definitionsdisplayed.

See the ISPF documentation for the complete list of these commands and theirexplanations.

Entering SVAA Subcommands in the Command or Option FieldYou can execute SVAA subcommands from any panel by issuing the SIBCMDcommand. You do this by typing SIBCMD (or simply SIB—the short form) in thecommand (or option) field, followed by an SVAA subcommand, and pressing Enter.Refer to Chapter 8, “SVAA Subcommands and Commands” for detaileddescriptions of the SVAA subcommands.

Note: If you type only SIB and press Enter, SVAA displays another panel thatprovides more space for entering one or more subcommands.

Examples:

SIB LISTCFG SUBSYS(SUBSYS(SVASYS) LEVEL(1))

requests a report on functional device configuration.

SIB SET CASE(UPPER)

causes all lowercase characters you enter during the session to be translated touppercase.

Entering Values on the PanelsFields with an arrow (===>) after the field name are data-entry fields. Fields with acolon (:) after the field name are display-only; you cannot enter data in these fields.

You can enter values in uppercase, lowercase, or mixed case.

You use two keys to move around the panels to make selections or to enter data:

Tab Moves the cursor to the next field in which you can enter data.

Enter Verifies that the values you have entered on the current panel are valid.Where appropriate, SVAA then displays the next panel.

MessagesSVAA displays brief messages in the upper-right corner of the panel. Thesemessages might inform you of:

� The successful completion of a task, or � Error conditions.

Issue the HELP command to display an expanded explanation.

Note: When displaying an error message, SVAA places the cursor under the fieldin which it finds the error.

Using the Panel Commands and Function KeysThe standard ISPF commands are available on the SVAA panels as well. Thecommands that are specifically defined for SVAA are listed and described inTable 7-1 on page 7-4, together with their default key assignments.

Not all SVAA panel commands work on all panels. For a list of the commands thatyou can use with the current panel, enter ? in the command field.

Note: Values you enter on this panel override the corresponding values in yourSIBADMIN profile or in the SIBSTK00 member of parmlib (see “SVAA InitializationRoutines” on page 3-2).

Column Headings

Option The name of the option to be set.

Permanent Value The option value that applies to all sessions. This column isinitially blank, although the default values are in effect for alloptions. Any allowable value you type in this columnautomatically appears in the Session Value column as well.This value applies for the rest of the current session and forall future sessions—until you enter a new value.

Session Value The option value that applies to the current session. To set adifferent value for the current session, type a new value inthis column. (After you do so and press Enter, the value inthe Source column changes to session.) The new sessionvalue does not affect the permanent value.

Source The source of the current value:

default The value is the SVAA default value (which wasset during SVAA initialization).

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SVAA Panels 7-7

Session Administration

session The value was typed in the Session Valuecolumn or entered via the appropriate SETSUBCOMMAND during the current session.

perm The value was typed in the Permanent Valuecolumn during this session or a previous session.

profile The value was set in the profile macro that wasexecuted when you used SIBADMIN.

parmlib The value was set via the parmlib member.

Job Card The job card that is used when SVAA submits a job toOS/390.

Procedure

1. Tab to and update the following optional fields as needed:

Case Specifies whether SVAA translates values that you enter forsubcommand parameters to uppercase or leaves them inmixed case.

Enter mixed (or m) to have the case of characters interpretedexactly as you type them, or upper (or u) to have allcharacters you type interpreted as uppercase.

Pagesize Sets the number of lines per page for SVAA reports. You canenter a number from 40 to 99.

Profile Specifies the SVAA profile to be executed whenever youenter the SVAA panels in future sessions. (You cannotchange the session value for the profile.)

Parmlib Specifies the parmlib member to be used during initializationof the next SVAA session. (You cannot change the sessionvalue for the parmlib.)

SSName Specifies the OS/390 subsystem name associated with theSVAA address space. Normally, you use this option onlywhen running a test version of SVAA.

job card line Replace the default job card with your own job cardinformation. (The job name is generated by adding a $ toyour TSO userid.)

2. Issue the end command to accept the new values and return to the SVAASESSION ADMINISTRATION menu.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N7-18 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SSID Definition

Notes:

1. Each VCU (logical 3990) in your entire installation must have a unique SSID.

2. Once you define an SSID as non-zeroes, you cannot redefine it as zeroes.

3. You cannot redefine an SSID on a subsystem on which PPRC is enabled. Youmust first have your hardware support representative disable PPRC capabilityfor the subsystem. Then, after you have redefined the SSID, PPRC can bere-enabled for the subsystem.

You can define SSIDs in two different ways—by using the SSIDBASE field, or byspecifying SSIDs for each VCU individually.

Procedure for the SSIDBASE field

1. Tab to the SSIDBASE field and enter a “base” SSID (a 4-digit hexadecimal value)for VCU 0. SVAA assigns SSIDs to all other VCUs in ascending hexadecimalsequence, beginning with the base SSID.

Note: The SSID value you specify must not allow the last SSID to exceedFFFF. For example, on a subsystem that supports 16 SSIDs, FFF0 is thehighest valid entry for SSIDBASE.

2. Issue the submit command to update the configuration. The panel displays thenew SSID values. For example, entering an SSIDBASE value of �7�� results inthis display:

Channel Interface Configuration

Channel Interface Configuration

SVAA enables you to alter interface characteristics for parallel, ESCON, FICON,fibre, and SCSI channels:

� For a parallel (bus and tag cables) channel, you can change the name of thechannel interface, the channel speed, the base address and range ofaddresses trapped by the channel interface, and the base functional device ID.

� For an ESCON, FICON, SCSI, or fibre channel, you can change only the nameof the channel interface.

Note: You cannot alter the characteristics of a channel interface that is used by aPPRC pair.

Functional Device Configuration

The functional device configuration panels enable you to define additional functionaldevices (including privileged ECAM devices), update the definition and/or status offunctional devices, and delete functional devices.

You can define a maximum of 4096 functional devices on each V2X SVAsubsystem. The number is less than 4096 if you define any 3390-9 devices. If youdefine all devices as 3390-9s, the maximum number is only 1365 devices persubsystem.

Note: For the maximum number of FDIDs on subsystems earlier than the V2X, see“Functional Differences between Subsystems” on page 1-2.

The configuration process begins with the FUNCTIONAL DEVICE SELECTION panel.The entries you make on this panel lead to either an Insert, Replicate, Initialize,Update, or Delete panel.

Functional Device Configuration

Using Line Commands

On some SVAA panels that display tables, you can enter commands called linecommands to the left of any line (row) of data. On the FUNCTIONAL DEVICESELECTION panel you can use the following line commands:

Innn Insert (add) one or more functional device definitionsRnnn Replicate the characteristics of a functional deviceNnnn Select one or more SCSI devices to be initialized with a volser and host

device numberSnnn Select one or more functional device definitions to be updatedDnnn Delete one or more functional device definitions

nnn, which is optional, ranges from 1 to 999 and indicates the number ofconsecutive definitions to be inserted, replicated, initialized, updated, or deleted(default is 1). The total number of device definitions cannot exceed 4096 (1024 onsubsystems earlier than the V2X). This number is lower if any 3390-9 devices aredefined.

Using the Sort Command

You can control the order in which functional devices appear on this panel byentering a sort command in the command field. You can sort the functional devicesin either ascending order (the sorta command) or descending order (the sortdcommand) by any one of the following parameters (column headings):

fdid, volser, unit, ba, pt, ssid, devtype, cyls, bytes

You can use either uppercase or lowercase.

Examples:

Type sorta fdid and press Enter to display the functional devices in ascendingorder by FDID.

Type SORTD UNIT and press Enter to display the functional devices indescending order by host device number.

Using Fast Path Replicate

Fast Path Replicate enables you to generate additional functional device definitionsbased upon an existing definition.

To add device definitions with Fast Path Replicate:

1. Type YES in the Fast Path Replicate field (near the top of the panel).

2. Tab to a functional device definition line to be replicated and enter Rnnn at theleft end of the line. nnn (optional) represents the number of times to replicatethe definition (maximum of 999). The default value for nnn is 1.

The total number of device definitions cannot exceed 4096 (1024 onsubsystems earlier than V2X). (Fewer devices can be defined if any 3390-9devices are included.) If you specify an nnn value that is greater than thenumber of undefined devices, SVAA generates as many definitions as possible.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N7-38 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Functional Device Configuration

For example, to define three functional devices with the characteristics ofENGV12:

� �Device -------Host--------- CKD SCSI SVAA --Functional--

FDID P/T -Type- SSID Volser Unit -Status- R/W R/W Comm -Cyls CapacityR3__ 1A P 339�1 C��1 ENGV12 C��� MOUNTED Y N N 1113 946.�

� �

Note: You can enter Rnnn on additional lines for more replications beforeproceeding to Step 3.

If you replicate a PAV Alias device, the PAVBASE value (the Base device towhich the Alias is related) is also replicated. This is a convenient way ofdefining multiple additional PAV Aliases to an existing Base device.

3. Issue the submit command.

The panel displays the added (replicated) functional device definition lines.The added lines are identical except for the unit numbers; SVAA assigns thenext-available unit numbers automatically.

� �Device -------Host--------- CKD SCSI SVAA --Functional--

FDID P/T -Type- SSID Volser Unit -Status- R/W R/W Comm -Cyls Capacity____ 1A P 339�1 C��1 ENGV12 C��� MOUNTED Y N N 1113 946.�____ 1B P 339�1 C��1 C��1 MOUNTED Y N N 1113 946.�____ 1C P 339�1 C��1 C��2 MOUNTED Y N N 1113 946.�____ 1D P 339�1 C��1 C��3 MOUNTED Y N N 1113 946.�

� �

To replicate another functional device, repeat steps 1 to 3.

To change the characteristics of the added functional devices, tab to the first newdevice definition and, in the space at the left, type Snnn (where nnn is the number ofconsecutive definitions you want to update). When you press Enter, the UPDATEFUNCTIONAL DEVICE panel appears with the device characteristics of the first lineyou selected (see page 7-57).

Technique for Quick PAV Setup of a VCU

To quickly setup an entire VCU of Base and Alias devices, you might want to usethe following technique, which assumes that the VCU does not contain anypreviously defined devices:

1. Define one Base device using the lowest FDID in the VCU (e.g., 000 100,200...)

2. Fast Path Replicate the Base device to create as many Base devices as areneeded

3. Define one Alias device using the lowest unused FDID in the VCU and relate itto any Base device in the VCU

4. Fast Path Replicate the Alias device to fill out the remainder of the VCU withAlias devices

5. In a Static PAV environment, use the ISPF panels or the ALTER DEVICEcommand to reassign the Alias to Base relationships as desired

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SVAA Panels 7-39

Insert Functional Device

This technique is especially useful in a Dynamic PAV environment since theWorkLoad Manager (WLM) will adjust these initial PAV relationships as needed; thelast step is therefore not required in a Dynamic PAV environment.

Example:

VCU 4 is completely undefined. You want to setup the VCU with 64 Basedevices and 192 Aliases. You first define FDID 400 as a Base, then use FastPath Replicate and a value of R63 on the line command to create the other 63Base devices. You next define FDID 440 as an Alias device that is related toFDID 400, then use Fast Path Replicate and a value of R191 on the linecommand to create the other 191 Alias devices. If a Static PAV environment isin effect, you reassign the Alias to Base relationships as desired using the ISPFpanels or the ALTER DEVICE command, or just let WLM reassign Aliases asneeded if a Dynamic PAV environment is in effect.

Procedure for Functional Device Selection

Figure 7-38. Delete Functional Device panel for Alias on V2Xf subsystems (SIBCA25)

Notes:

1. Deleting a functional device makes all data on the device inaccessible.Therefore, you should back up any critical data before deleting the device.

2. Before performing the deletion, you must vary the device offline to all hosts.Note that PAV Base devices must be varied offline before any related Aliasdevice can be deleted, and that Alias devices cannot be varied online or offline.

3. If OS/390 is running under VM, access to a device may be affected by a VMdevice status of BOXED. To remove the BOXED status in VM: (1) vary thedevice offline to ensure its status is OFFLINE, (2) vary the device online toreestablish a path, and then (3) vary it offline again.

4. You cannot delete a functional device that is part of a PPRC pair. You mustfirst delete the pair and then you may delete the device.

5. The FORCE parameter is no longer required when deleting an Alias that isrelated to an offline Base device that contains user data.

Procedure

1. Check the Online field to verify that the device is not online.

(This field should say NO.)

2. Check the Phys. Used(MB), Total field.

If this field shows a value greater than zero, back-end storage (user data)exists on the device.

3. Issue the submit command.

SVAA verifies the device is offline and then issues the message:

Are you sure you want to delete this device?Reply Yes or No.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N7-64 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Delete Functional Device

4. Type Y and press Enter.

Subsystem Checks Performed

The subsystem checks the following conditions:

� Device online � PAV Status � Back-end storage � Busy state

Device online

This check prevents you from deleting a functional device that is currently beingaccessed by another host system.

If the device is not offline to all hosts, the following message appears:

device online to another system.Reply Retry or Cancel.

Enter either R or C.

R Reissues the delete request.

But first, you should ensure that the functional device is offline to all hosts.

C Cancels the delete request.

PAV Status

This check prevents you from deleting a Base device (online or offline) that still hasAlias devices related to it and from deleting Alias devices from an online Basedevice. No operator prompt is issued. However, if the PAV status is not correct,the delete will fail, and an error message is issued.

Back-end storage

The subsystem also checks for back-end storage.

Note: PAV Alias devices do not actually consume additional back-end storage.

If the device is defined to the host:

The VTOC is scanned for user data. If user data is found, the following messageappears:

user data exists for this device.Reply FORCE or Cancel.

Enter either FORCE or C.

FORCE Deletes the back-end storage associated with the device. (Any tracksthat are associated with the device and are currently in cache are alsodeleted.)

Note: To force a delete when the device is defined to the host, youmust have RACF DASDVOL class ALTER authority for the volser. If theDASDVOL class is not active on this host, before you attempt to deletethe device you must either: 1) disable the device (use the ALTERDEVICE command and the CKDENA(NO) parameter), 2) vary all pathsoffline to the device on this host operating system, or 3) implement theSIBIOATX user exit, otherwise the delete will fail with a SIB1164E

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N SVAA Panels 7-65

Delete Functional Device

message indicating that you have insufficient authority to access thesubsystem.

C Cancels the delete request.

If the device is not defined to the host:

The subsystem checks the device for back-end storage. If user data is found, thefollowing message appears:

back-end storage exists for this device.Reply FORCE or Cancel.

Enter either FORCE or C.

FORCE Deletes the back-end storage associated with the device. (Any tracksthat are associated with the device and are currently in cache are alsodeleted.)

Note: To force a delete when the device is not defined to the host, youmust have RACF FACILITY class ALTER authority for the generalizedresource IXFP.FORCE.DELETE.FUNC.DEV. Since Alias devices arealways considered to not be defined to the host, the deletion of Aliaseswill always use the RACF FACILITY class and the generalized resourceIXFP.FORCE.DELETE.FUNC.DEV profile for security checking.

C Cancels the delete request.

Busy state

The subsystem determines whether activity is occurring on the device. If the deviceis busy, the following message appears:

device is busy. Reply Retry or Cancel.

Enter either R or C.

R Reissues the delete request.

The subsystem repeats all checks—to verify that this functional device isoffline, contains no back-end storage, and is not busy.

C Cancels the delete request.

The panel for the next functional device you selected appears. If there isnone, the UPDATE FUNCTIONAL DEVICE panel appears.

Result

With the satisfactory completion of all checks, the subsystem sends a state-changeinterrupt to all channels and deletes the device.

The subsystem issues a message that the delete is complete.

Figure 7-47. Drain Drive Module(s) panel (SIBCU25)

This panel enables you to initiate a drain of specific drive modules. When driveshave been successfully drained, they are placed in the MAT partition for removal orreallocation. You can select drive modules to be drained in one of four ways:

� individually (by unit, tray, slot) � by array � by tray� by DAU (disk array unit)

Notes:

1. You cannot drain the last drive module, last array, last tray, or last DAU.

2. You cannot drain a DAU or a tray if a Test partition is defined.

3. You cannot terminate a drain once it has started.

Before the SVA subsystem starts a drain, it ensures that there is sufficientsubsystem capacity to hold the data to be drained. If available capacity isinsufficient, the drain request fails.

Procedure

1. (Optional) The Completion Notification fields display the default values. Tochange the destinations for notification, tab to and update the following fields:

Host Node ID The host Node ID to which notice of drain completionshould be sent.

Default: Node ID from which you initiate the drain.

User ID The user ID of the individual to be notified.

Default: Current user ID

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N7-86 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Drain Drive Modules

2. To select components to be drained, type S to the left of:

� Ary — the array to be drained, or� DAU — the disk array unit to be drained, or� Tray — the tray to be drained, or� one or more U.T.S designations — the drive module(s) to be drained.

In a single drive module drain, all the data in the drive is moved to a sparedrive module. Thus, for each Production or Test partition drive module to bedrained, a spare drive module must be available. (No spare drive is required todrain a spare, however.) If the necessary spare drive modules are notavailable when a drain is requested, the drain request is rejected.

In an array drain, all the data in the array is moved to other existing arrays inthe same partition.

Note: While a drive is being drained, the configuration can display a total thatis too large (followed by a ?), for example: Ary1 P 13+2=16?. (When the drainis complete, the displayed total will be correct.)

The method used to drain a DAU or a tray depends upon the number of sparesavailable in addition to the number of spares reserved for existing arrays.

� If, for each drive module in the DAU or tray to be drained, a spare drive isavailable outside that DAU or tray, each drive module is drained into one ofthe spares.

� If the number of available spares is inadequate, the process involvesdraining arrays. In this case, drain activity may be observed in“associated” drive modules—modules that are part of an array beingdrained but are outside the “target” DAU or tray.

3. Issue the submit command.

A confirm message appears:

Once initiated, this drain cannot be terminated.Are you sure you wish to continue? (Reply YES or NO)

4. Type YES to continue and press Enter.

Result: An SVAA message appears in the upper right corner of the panel.Issue the help command to get information about the message. If the drain issuccessfully initiated, a process identifier number for the drain is assigned.

Specifying SnapShot Subcommands

Target The data set name of the target data set: 1 to 44alphanumeric or national ($ @ #) characters, and 2special (- {) characters, in “nodes” of one to eightcharacters separated by periods. Do not use a numeric(0-9) or special character (- or {) as the first character ofany node.

Both the source and target data sets must resolve tocompatible devices in the same SVA subsystem andpartition. All extents for the target data set must resideon devices that are currently online and accessible. PAVAlias devices cannot be used as the target of a snapoperation.

In the TSO environment, OS/390 will prefix your user ID toyour data set name. Enclose the data set name inquotes to prevent prefixing.

Volume The target volume to which the data set is to besnapped. This is a volume serial number of a devicethat is online to the host attempting the snap.

Enter either the Volume parameter or the Esotericparameter—not both.

Note: When the source data set and the target volumedo not reside on the same SVA subsystem and partition,you must specify a valid data mover to perform the copyoperation.

Esoteric The generic locally defined device group name of theDASD devices onto which the source data set is to besnapped.

Enter either the Volume parameter or the Esotericparameter—not both.

Volume Count The maximum number of volumes on which a new targetdata set can be allocated: a decimal number from 1 to255 without quotes.

Storage Class An SMS storage class (the locally defined list of storageattributes) required for a newly allocated target data set.

Mgmt Class A locally defined SMS management class to be assignedto the target data set (used when SnapShot dynamicallyallocates the data set).

Data Class A locally defined SMS data class to be assigned to thetarget data set.

Relate The name of the base cluster to which the targetalternate index is to be related: 1 to 44 alphanumeric ornational ($ @ #) characters, and two special (- {)characters, in “nodes” of one to eight charactersseparated by periods. Do not use a numeric (0-9) orspecial character (- or {) as the first character of anynode.

Specifying SnapShot Subcommands

In the TSO environment, OS/390 will prefix your user ID toyour base cluster name. Enclose the name in quotes toprevent prefixing.

Replace Specifies whether the source data set is to overwrite anydata in an existing target data set. If the target data setis allocated OLD or SHR, and you do not specify Y for thisparameter, the snap operation terminates.

Y Overwrite the existing target data set.N Do not overwrite the existing target data set.

Host Copy Mode The level of serialization control to be obtained for thesource and target data sets.

EXC Use dynamic allocations with disposition of OLD.Exclusive control offers better protection of dataintegrity than shared control. Enter this option ifyou want exclusive control over the source or targetduring a snap operation.

SHR Use dynamic allocations with a disposition of SHR.Enter this option if you want to modify the source ortarget during a snap operation.

Tolerate Enqueue FailureEnables you to snap data sets when exclusiveserialization control over them cannot be obtained.Integrity of the data set cannot be assured. If you alsospecify EXC for Host Copy Mode, you must use thisparameter to snap a data set that is unavailable at theexclusive serialization level.

Y Snap a data set that is unavailable at the exclusiveserialization level.

N Do not snap a data set if it is unavailable at theexclusive serialization level.

Tolerate Truncation Allows a data set to be truncated and a warningmessage to be issued if the target extent size is smallerthan the source. Otherwise, if the target cannot beextended, the snap fails. SnapShot truncates the dataset only if it cannot allocate more space. Truncation maycause loss of data.

Y Truncate a data set that is snapped to a smallerdata set.

N Do not truncate a data set if target is smaller thansource data set. The snap fails.

Datamover Name When the source and target data sets do not reside onthe same SVA subsystem and partition, you can specifya data mover program to physically copy the data setwithout SnapShot.

If you do not specify a data mover and one is needed, orif SnapShot is unable to access the data mover, theoperation is cancelled.

NONE Do not use a data mover.ADRDSSU Use ADRDSSU (IBM DFSMSdss utility).DFDSS Use DFDSS (IBM DFSMSdss utility).

Specifying SnapShot Subcommands

DSS Use DSS (IBM DFSMSdss utility).

Catalog When SnapShot dynamically allocates the target dataset, this parameter specifies whether a new target dataset is to be cataloged when it is created by the SNAPDATASET subcommand. SnapShot supports ICF catalogentries only.

Y Catalog the the allocated target data set.N Do not catalog the the allocated target data set.

This option is supported only for target data setsthat must be created and are not SMS managed.

Error Disposition When SnapShot dynamically allocates the target dataset, this parameter specifies whether that data set will bekept or deleted when an error occurs.

KEEP Keep the target data set if an error occurs.DELETE Delete the target data set if an error occurs.

Force Allows you to snap a data set that was created asabsolute track (ABSTR) or as unmovable (PSU, POU orDAU). SnapShot makes no attempt to ensure that thetarget data set will be accessible. SnapShot does notallocate absolute track locations.

Unless Force is enabled, the target for an unmovable orabsolute track data set must reside or be allocated on adifferent device from that of the source and at the samephysical track location as the source.

Y Snap an unmovable or absolute track data set to adifferent physical track location on the same oranother device.

N Do not snap an unmovable or absolute track dataset unless the target location is identical to thesource.

Debug Enables or disables the logging of diagnostic messages.Use this parameter only at the request of your servicerepresentative.

OFF Disable the generation of diagnostic messages.ON Enable the generation of diagnostic messages.

Trace Specifies whether GTF trace records are to be generatedby the subcommand. GTF records can be used tofacilitate troubleshooting of SNAP DATASET subcommandprocessing. Use this parameter only at the request ofyour service representative.

For Trace to be effective, you must start an active tracewith GTF TYPE=USR before executing the SNAP DATASETsubcommand.

OFF Disable trace record generation.ON Enable trace record generation.

2. Issue the submit command to execute the SNAP DATASET subcommand.

Subcommands

The SVAA subcommands can be issued in a variety of ways. Those referred to as“subcommands of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN” can be executed both interactively andthrough batch processing. The “System Operator commands” are available to theoperator at the OS/390 system console. Many commands and subcommands fallinto both categories.

Subcommands of SIBBATCH and SIBADMIN

You can issue SVAA subcommands through both SIBADMIN and SIBBATCH. Thisenables you to configure the SVA subsystem from TSO or from an OS/390 batch job.

The general form of SVAA subcommands is shown in the following diagram (theconventions used in the syntax diagrams in this book are explained on page xiv):

��──subcommand──(──parameter──(──values──)──)──destination───────────────────────────��

where:

subcommand is a subcommand described in this chapter.

parameter is the name of a parameter described in this chapter. (More thanone parameter, together with its values, can be included in thesubcommand.)

values is one or more of the acceptable values for the specifiedparameter.

destination is a destination for the output of this particular subcommand tooverride the destination currently in effect for all SVAAsubcommands. For more information, see “RedirectingSubcommand Output” on page 8-10.

Note: You can include a destination for output at the end of anySVAA subcommand. However, because you would generally notuse it, the destination option is not shown in the subcommandsyntax diagrams in this chapter.

Note: You can use the PARM='=PARMLIB=membername' parameter on theSIBADMIN or SIBBATCH command to specify the name of the member to besearched for initialization parameters.

Executing Commands from SIBADMINIn the TSO environment, you can:

� Enter SIBADMIN followed by any SVAA subcommand (press Enter).

� Enter only SIBADMIN and press Enter. This establishes the “SIB” environment;SVAA returns the SIB: prompt, at which you can:

- Enter an SVAA subcommand. SVAA executes the subcommand and againdisplays the SIB: prompt. Enter another subcommand, or

- Enter end to return to the TSO environment.

See “Issuing Subcommands from TSO” on page 3-4 for more detail.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-5

Operator Commands

Executing Commands from SIBBATCHWith SIBBATCH, you can code a set of commands and SVAA subcommands in asequential data set, use a SYSIN DD statement in the appropriate JCL to point to thedata set containing the commands, and then execute the JCL. Alternatively, youcan code the commands in a SYSIN DD * statement and execute the JCL.

You can include comments in sequential data sets following these rules:

1. Enclose comments between matching pairs of /* and */ characters.

2. Comments cannot be nested.

3. Comments can be used only between subcommand keywords and parameters(that is, only where blanks appear in the syntax diagrams in this chapter).

See also “Subcommand Continuation” on page 8-10.

Executing Macros from SIBADMINIn SIBADMIN, you can invoke an SVAA macro to execute a frequently used series ofcommands, which may include SVAA subcommands. Creating a macro eliminatesthe task of entering the commands individually. To execute a macro, either:

� Enter MACRO macroname, where macroname is the name of the file that containsthe macro (see “MACRO Subcommand” on page 8-115)

� If IMPEX is set on, simply enter the name of the macro in the appropriateenvironment

Include comments in an SVAA macro following the rules of the environment.

System Operator Commands

Some of the SVAA subcommands are also available to the OS/390 system operator,enabling the operator to interact with the SVA subsystem from a host console.These “subcommands” are marked “System Operator command” at the beginning oftheir descriptions in this chapter. They fall into two functional groups:

� Commands that display or alter the status of channels and functional devices:

ATTN DEVICE DISPLAY CHANNEL DISPLAY DEVICE DISPLAY NCL VARY CHANNEL VARY DEVICE

The ATTN and VARY subcommands provide the functions performed by thephysical channel and device switches that exist on earlier model direct accessstorage device (DASD) controllers.

� Commands that control SVAA tasks:

SEND DSR SEND SFC SEND SIM SEND SRP SEND VOP START DSR START SFC START SIM

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-6 SVAA Configuration and Administration

Rules

START SRP START VOP STOP DSR STOP SFC STOP SIM STOP SRP STOP VOP

Specific subcommands control DDSR tasks:

DISPLAY RELEASE RELEASE DYNAMICDATA RELEASE INTERVALDATA RESUME RELEASE START RELEASE STOP RELEASE SUSPEND RELEASE

Note: Eight of the above commands—START DSR, START SIM, START SRP, STARTVOP, STOP DSR, STOP SIM, STOP SRP, and STOP VOP—can be issued only fromthe OS/390 system console; not as subcommands of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN.

Additional operator subcommands control the Reporter data collection tasks. Seethe SVAA for OS/390 Reporting manual.

You use a modify (F) command to enter SVAA system operator commands. Thesyntax is:

��──F─ ──taskname,command ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────��

where taskname is the name of an SVAA started task, and command is one of thesubcommands or commands that are described in this chapter.

Rules for Entering Subcommands and Parameters

Follow these rules when entering SVAA subcommands and their parameters:

� Enter each parameter name only once—SVAA does not allow duplicateparameters.

� Follow each parameter name by the values for that parameter and enclose theset of values in a single pair of parentheses. You must enter a value betweenthe parentheses—for example, DEVPERF() and DEVPERF( ) are not allowed.

� Enter each parameter value only once where multiple values areallowed—SVAA ignores duplicate values.

� Arrange the whole set of parameters in any order.

� Enclose the whole set of parameters within parentheses.

� The SEND subcommands require that the subcommand you are sending (withinthe parentheses) be enclosed in quotes. If the enclosed subcommand alsocontains quotation marks (that is, nested quotation marks), the outer set ofquotes must be different from the inner set. For example: SEND DSR("STOPREL('task123')")

� Optionally, for ease of reading, start each new parameter on a new line (youcan add additional spaces or use new lines anywhere you want).

Rules

CaseYou can enter subcommands and parameters in either uppercase or lowercase, butSVAA treats both as uppercase. The values you enter for certain parametervariables, however, are case sensitive; e.g., “a” and “A” are interpreted as differentcharacters.

Whether uppercase and lowercase characters are actually interpreted differently forcase-sensitive values is determined by the current setting of the SET CASEsubcommand (see “SET CASE” on page 8-160). If you have issued the SETCASE(MIXED) subcommand, case is preserved; that is, uppercase and lowercasecharacters are interpreted differently. However, if SET CASE(UPPER), the default, isin effect, SVAA interprets all lowercase input as uppercase.

The values you assign to SVA subsystem names, site names, channel names,device names, release identifiers, and collection identifiers are all case sensitive. Areminder of this fact appears below the “Values:” line wherever one of theseparameters is described in this chapter.

To ensure that SVAA correctly interprets the lowercase characters you use for acase-sensitive name, regardless of the current setting of the SET CASEsubcommand, enclose the name in matching quotation marks, either single quotesor double quotes. For example: 'subsysA' and "Task123". However, in a SENDsubcommand, which may involve nested sets of quotation marks, use doublequotes for one set and single quotes for the other.

All other parameter values—i.e., those without a note regarding case—are not casesensitive. Such parameters include device addresses and volsers. For example,3A� and 3a� are the same unit address.

Wildcard CharactersWildcard characters (* and ?) provide a way for you to specify multiple values for aparameter without typing all of the values individually. You use wildcard charactersto indicate positions within a parameter value at which legitimate alphanumericcharacters can be substituted according to the following rules:

� The asterisk (*) is the generic wildcard character; it can be replaced by anynumber of alphanumeric characters or special characters that are acceptablefor the specific variable.

You can separate multiple generic wildcard characters by any number ofalphanumeric characters. For example:

VOLUME(�ROLL�)

Any volser containing the character sequence ROLL is included. Examples are:PYROLL and ROLLFW

� The question mark (?) is the specific wildcard character; it can be replaced byexactly one alphanumeric character. For example:

VOLUME(PR?D�) Includes all volumes that start with PR and have a D inthe fourth position.

VOLUME(PR??D�) Includes all volumes that start with PR and have a D inthe fifth position.

Leading zeros are not significant in matching wildcard specification of deviceaddresses. For example, if you specify 3�, in a device address, devices 3��� to

3FFF, 3�� to 3FF, 3� to 3F, and 3 match that specification. However, if you specify�3� in a device address, only devices 3�� to 3FF, 3� to 3F, and 3 match thatspecification.

RangesA range is a set of sequential values that is defined by the first and last values inthe set. Range specifications must adhere to these rules:

� The two values must be of the same data type but have different values.

� The two values must be separated by a colon.

� Except in ranges of units, the two values must contain the same number ofcharacters. Use leading zeroes if necessary.

� Except in unit ranges, both values must contain at least one numeric (decimal)character and the numerics must be in the same position in each value.(Numerics are not required in unit ranges, so AAA:FFF is a valid range of units.)

� The values can be times, single unit addresses, volume serial numbers, orsubsystem names. However, it is not necessary for all the values to representaddresses, volsers, or units, or names that exist.

For example, you can enter a pair of volume serial numbers (volsers), eachconsisting of 1 to 6 alphanumeric characters, such as:

P��1:P��9

� Except in time ranges, the first value must be less than the second.

� Elements in a range cannot contain wildcard characters.

� Multiple ranges within the same parameter must be separated by spaces.

� In time and date ranges, multiple ranges cannot overlap.

� Between two values, only the right-most numeric sequences can differ. Allother characters must match.

Note: In ranges of volsers or device names, hexadecimal “digits” are notconsidered to be numeric. For example, SYS���:SYS�FF is not a valid range. Also,SYS��9:SYS�15 is a valid range, but does not include SYS��A through SYS��F.

Examples of valid ranges:

Range Volsers DefinedA��B�:A��B8 A��B�, A��B1, ... , A��B8A3B2C5:A3B2C7 A3B2C5, A3B2C6, A3B2C72VM31C:2VM49C 2VM31C, 2VM32C, 2VM33C, ... 2VM49C��5:��9 ��5 to ��9�5:12 �5 to 12

Examples of invalid ranges:

Range Reason InvalidA2�B3�:A29B3� The varying sequence (20 ... 29) is not the right-most

numeric sequence.A2�B1:A2�B99 The elements have differing numbers of digits.SYS1A:SYSA2 The numerics are not in the same position and the

non-numeric portions do not match.

Redirecting Output

ListsA list consists of two or more parameter values or ranges separated by spaces.The entire list must be enclosed in parentheses. For example:

SUBSYS(SUBSYS1 SUBSYS3:SUBSYS6 SUBSYS9)

You can use wildcard characters (* and ?) within lists—if the parameter is one forwhich wildcard characters are allowed. For example:

EXCLUDEVOLUME(ABC��� ABC� TST??s TST5�)

Subcommand ContinuationBecause many of the SVAA subcommands are longer than the typical line or record,you may need to continue a subcommand across several records. The method ofcontinuation depends on the facilities of the execution environment:

� Under REXX in TSO, use the REXX method of continuation.

� Within a REXX EXEC, there is a limitation of 512 characters for a statement.You can overcome the limitation by building your command in a series ofconcatenated clauses.

� In a TSO CLIST, use the CLIST method of continuation.

� In a command at a TSO command prompt, use the TSO continuation.

� The SIBBATCH program uses the same method of continuation as the IDCAMSutility. Except for the last record, each record must have a hyphen or a plussign as the last non-blank character before the right margin to indicatecontinuation of the subcommand. You can place the hyphen or plus sign afterany character (even in the middle of a value) and continue the subcommand onthe next line.

� In TSO sessions, SVAA allows a maximum of 32,763 characters in a commandor subcommand. SVAA truncates longer commands to this limit and issues themessage:

SIB�714S Unexpected system failure of SUBCOMM processing.

The examples in this chapter use hyphens to show continuation.

Redirecting Subcommand Output

SVAA sends the output of SVAA subcommands to the destination specified in themost recent SET DESTINATION subcommand. For any specific subcommand, youcan override this destination by specifying a destination at the end of thesubcommand (as shown on page 8-5).

The syntax for the destination is:

��─ ──┬ ┬────────────────── ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────�� ├ ┤──OUTMsg(options) ─ └ ┘──OUTFile(options)

where options are any of the subparameters allowed for the OUTFILE or OUTMSGparameters of the SET DESTINATION subcommand (that is, any of filespec,

Subcommand Descriptions

DEFAULT, OFF, TERMINAL, or VARIABLE). See “SET DESTINATION” onpage 8-162 for explanations of these subparameters.

Note: In the TSO environment, follow standard data set naming conventions; thatis, enclose a data set name in quotes if it is fully qualified.

Subcommand Descriptions

The SVAA subcommands are presented in alphabetical order beginning on page8-12. At the beginning of each subcommand description, the subcommand isidentified as a “Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN” or as a “SystemOperator command”—or both.

The description of each subcommand consists of:

� An explanation of the command's purpose� A syntax diagram� Descriptions of all parameters� Examples using the subcommand

Parameter DescriptionsImmediately under each parameter name, the parameter is identified as either“Required”, “Optional”, or “Conditional”. The term Conditional means that theparameter is neither required nor completely optional but that its use is related toother parameters. A parenthetical note explains the conditions for its use.

After a brief description of the parameter's purpose, some or all of the followingtypes of information may appear:

Abbreviation: The uppercase portion of the parameter name as shown in thesyntax box.

Values: A description of valid input, with any restrictions.

Default form: The default form for numeric input—either hexadecimal or decimal.To use the form that is not the default you must include the X or Dprefix. (Sometimes the default form is the only form allowed.)

Default value: The default value, if one exists, or “None,” if there is no default.

Examples: Some valid examples of parameter entries.

ALTER CHANNEL Subcommand

* Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN

The ALTER CHANNEL subcommand alters the characteristics of a channel interface.The characteristics the subcommand can alter depend on the channel type:

� For a parallel (bus and tag cables) channel, you can alter one or more of sixcharacteristics.

� For an ESCON or FICON channel, you can change only the channel interfacename. To alter any other characteristics of an ESCON or FICON channel, youmust use the LOP or the DOP. (Disabling the channel does not apply—ESCONand FICON channels cannot be enabled or disabled.)

� For a SCSI or fibre channel I/O interface, you can change only the interfacename.

Note: You cannot alter the characteristics of a channel interface that is used by aPPRC pair.

└ ┘─4.5─

Note: Before issuing this subcommand for a parallel channel, you must vary thechannel offline to all hosts.

The channel interface must be disabled before you can alter channel interfacecharacteristics. You can use the subcommand's ENABLE | DISABLE parameter toensure that this is handled properly. Whether the ENABLE | DISABLE parameter isprocessed first or last depends upon the existing status of the channel interface.To illustrate, here are two ways to use the parameter:

� Issue the subcommand, including the parameters to be changed, together withthe DISABLE parameter.

SVAA first processes the DISABLE parameter and then alters the channelinterface characteristics as specified.

� If you believe the channel is already disabled (by the operator or a previoussubcommand), issue the subcommand with the parameters to be changed, theENABLE parameter, and VERIFY(DISABLE).

SVAA first processes the VERIFY(DISABLE) parameter. If it verifies that thechannel interface is disabled, SVAA alters the channel interface characteristicsas specified and then processes the ENABLE parameter.

See Examples 1 and 2 on page 8-19 for examples of parallel channelsubcommand syntax.

For an ESCON, FICON, SCSI, or fibre channel: This parameter is not allowed.(These channel types cannot be enabled or disabled.)

This parameter enables or disables the channel interface. The channel interfacemust be disabled before you can alter channel characteristics (see the discussion atthe beginning of the ALTER CHANNEL description).

Abbreviation: ENA or DIS

Default value: None

NAME (chname)For a parallel channel: This is one of a group of six parameters of which youmust enter at least one: ADDRR, BADDR, BFDID, ENA | DIS, NM, and SPEED.

For an ESCON, FICON, SCSI, or fibre channel: You must enter this parameter;the channel (or I/O) interface name is the only characteristic you can alter for thesechannel types.

This parameter specifies the names to be assigned to the channel or I/O interfaces.

Abbreviation: NM

Values: chname is a name for a channel or I/O interface. You can enter 1to 8 characters or a null string. The following characters areaccepted, even as the first character: a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9, $,@, #, -, _, +, &, ., / A null string, entered as NAME('') orNAME(""), sets the name to all blanks.

Note: If SET CASE(UPPER) is in effect, and you use lowercasecharacters in a channel name and don't want them converted touppercase, you must enclose the name in matching quotes.

You can use ranges and lists, but not wildcard characters.

Notes:

1. When specifying a range, both names must contain at leastone numeric (decimal) character, which must be in theright-most position in each name (as in the third examplebelow).

2. In a range specification, hexadecimal “alphabetic digits” (A-F)are not recognized as numeric. See the rules and examplesfor specifying ranges (beginning on page 8-9).

For an ESCON, FICON, SCSI, or fibre channel: This parameter is not allowed.(The speed for these channel types cannot be altered.)

This parameter sets the channel's data transfer speed in megabytes/second.

Note: A speed must be set before a parallel channel interface can be enabled.

Values: 3.� or 4.5

Default value: None

VERIFY (subparameters)(Optional)

This parameter provides a way for you to insure that you are modifying the correctchannel/interface and characteristics. Enter one or more of the followingsubparameters, together with what you expect its current value to be.

ADDRR (addrrange) (not allowed for a SCSI or fibre interface)BADDR (baseaddr) (not allowed for a SCSI or fibre interface)BFDID (basefdid) (not allowed for a SCSI or fibre interface)ENA | DIS

NM (chname)SPEED (3.0 | 4.5) (not allowed for a SCSI or fibre interface)

The VERIFY parameter compares the value you specify to the actual currentchannel or I/O interface value. If all subparameter values you enter match thecurrent channel or I/O interface values, the ALTER continues. However, if theVERIFY fails, the ALTER CHANNEL subcommand is rejected.

Abbreviation: VER

Default value: None

Examples of ALTER CHANNEL Example 1. Parallel channel

ALTER CHANNEL (- SUBSYS(SVASUB�1)- IFID(�.A:�.H)- NM(CHAN�1:CHAN�8)- DIS- SPEED(4.5)- ADDRR(256)- BADDR(��)- BFDID(��)-

VER(NM(CH1:CH8) SPEED(3.�)) )

On SVA subsystem SVASUB�1, this subcommand selects channel interfaces A to Hon cluster � to be altered. With the VERIFY parameter present, it verifies that thecurrent channel names for the specified IFIDs are CH1 through CH8 and that the datatransfer speed for all eight channels is currently set to 3.�. If the VERIFY issuccessful, the DIS parameter disables the channel interfaces. It then renames thechannels CHAN�1 through CHAN�8. For all eight channels, it sets the data transferspeed to 4.5, sets the address range to 256, and sets the base address and baseFDID to ��.

Example 2. Parallel channel

ALT CHAN (- SUBSYS('sub�2')- IFID(1.A)- ENA- SPEED(3.�)- ADDRR(64)- BADDR(4�)- BFDID(4�)- VER(DIS) )

On SVA subsystem sub�2, this subcommand selects channel interface A on cluster1. It verifies that the channel interface is disabled and, if so, sets the data transferspeed to 3.�, sets the address range to 64, and sets the base address and baseFDID to 4�. Finally, it enables the channel interface.

Example 3. ESCON channel

ALTER CHANNEL (- SUBSYS(SVASYS�1)- IFID(�.I:�.L)- NM(ESCON�1:ESCON�4) )

On SVA subsystem SVASYS�1, this subcommand selects channel interfaces Ithrough L on cluster � and changes the names of those channels to ESCON�1through ESCON�4.

Example 4. FICON channel

ALTER CHANNEL (- SUBSYS(SVASYS�4)- IFID(�.I:�.L)- NM(FICON�1:FICON�4) )

On SVA subsystem SVASYS�4, this subcommand selects channel interfaces Ithrough L on cluster � and changes the names of those channels to FICON�1through FICON�4.

ALTER DEVICE Subcommand

* Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN

The ALTER DEVICE subcommand changes the definition of one or more SVAfunctional devices. It has no defaults. Any parameter not specified retains itscurrent setting.

Notes:

1. You cannot alter a device's FDID, device type, PAV type (Base/Alias), orpartition. Instead, you must delete the device and then redefine it with the newcharacteristics. First, however, you must back up the data stored on thedevice—if you want to retain that data. Once you have redefined the device,you can restore the data. One exception: you can change the partition for alldrive modules in the Test partition with the MOVE TESTPARTITIONsubcommand.

If changing the device type or PAV type of a device, make sure that the changeis consistent with the device definitions in HCD.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-20 SVAA Configuration and Administration

ALTER DEVICE

2. You cannot alter the characteristics of a device that is part of a PPRC pair.

3. You cannot alter the PRIVILEGEDECAM, SCSIENABLE, or SCSIREADWRITEvalues for Power PPRC Bridge devices. Also, you cannot specify a value forthe SCSIADDRESS parameter for Power PPRC Bridge devices.

4. You cannot alter the CACHE, CKDENABLE, CKDREADWRITE, DASDFASTWRITE,NAME, or PRIVILEGEDECAM values for PAV Alias devices.

5. If an Alias device is reassigned to a different Base device, both must be definedwithin the same Virtual Control Unit (VCU); crossing VCU boundaries is notallowed.

6. The device type (3380 or 3390) of an Alias device must always match that of itsrelated Base device. This requirement does not prevent an Alias from beingreassigned to a Base device with a larger or smaller capacity, but it doesprevent any attempt to reassign an Alias of one device type to a Base of adifferent device type. For example, a 3380-J Alias cannot be reassigned to a3390-9 Base, but a 3390-9 Alias can be reassigned to a 3390-3 Base.

7. You should not use the ALTER DEVICE subcommand or the ISPF panels tomanually reassign PAV Base and Alias relationships for dynamically managedPAV devices (WLMPAV=YES in the HCD definition) since WLM will probablyoverride your reassignment with its own. If you want to manually manage yourPAV Base and Alias relationships, you will need to change your HCD definitionsto redefine your PAV devices as statically managed (WLMPAV=NO in the HCDdefinition). Refer to IBM's MVS Planning: Workload Management and HCDPlanning for more information.

arrays instead of being held in cache. In a read operation, a track is staged tocache and then queued for deallocation from cache as soon as the read iscomplete. You cannot alter this value for PAV Alias devices.

Values: ENA or DIS

Default value: None

Example: CACHE(DIS)

CKDENABLE (YES | NO)Conditional (This is one of a group of nine parameters of which you must enter atleast one: CACHE, CKDENA, CKDRW, DFW, NM, PRIVLG, SCSIADDR, SCSIEN, andSCSIRW.)

This parameter enables or disables host access to the CKD functional device.

This parameter only provides 3990 compatibility; its setting has no effect on SVAoperations or performance. You cannot alter this value for PAV Alias devices. IfDASDFASTWRITE is specified for a V2Xf subsystem, a warning message is issuedas a reminder, but the subcommand is not rejected.

Abbreviation: DFW

Values: ENA or DIS

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-24 SVAA Configuration and Administration

ALTER DEVICE

Default value: None

Example: DFW(DIS)

NAME (dvcname)Conditional (This is one of a group of nine parameters of which you must enter atleast one: CACHE, CKDENA, CKDRW, DFW, NM, PRIVLG, SCSIADDR, SCSIEN, andSCSIRW.)

This parameter specifies the names to be assigned to the devices identified by theFDID or UNIT parameter. You cannot alter this value for PAV Alias devices.

Values: dvcname is a name for a functional device. You can enter 1 to 8characters or a null string. The following characters are accepted,even as the first character: a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9, $, @, #, -,_, +, &, ., / A null string, entered as NAME('') or NAME(""), setsthe name to all blanks.

Note: If SET CASE(UPPER) is in effect, and you use lowercasecharacters in a channel name and don't want them converted touppercase, you must enclose the name in matching quotes.

You can use ranges and lists, but not wildcard characters.

Notes:

1. When specifying a range, both names must contain at leastone numeric (decimal) character, which must be in theright-most position in each name (as in the third examplebelow).

2. In a range specification, hexadecimal “alphabetic digits” (A-F)are not recognized as numeric. See the rules and examplesfor specifying ranges (beginning on page 8-9).

Default value: None

Examples: NAME(PAYROLL)NM('financ��')NM(EMPLFIL1:EMPLFIL4)NM(PROJ71 PROJ112 PROJ149)NM("")

PAVBASE (base_fdid)Optional for Alias devices; invalid for Base devices

This parameter specifies the Base device to which this Alias is to be re-assigned.PAVBASE cannot specify an Alias device.

An Alias device can be reassigned to a different Base device either automatically bythe Workload Manager (WLM) component of an OS/390 or z/OS operating system,or manually by using the ALTER DEVICE subcommand. An Alias must be assignedto a Base device when the Alias is intially defined.

To reassign an Alias device to a different Base device using the ALTER DEVICEsubcommand, specify the FDID of the new Base (which must previously exist andcan be online or offline) in the PAVBASE parameter of the subcommand. To verifythe current PAV relationship before reassigning the Alias, add the VERIFYparameter and specify the FDID of the old Base in the PAVBASE sub-parameter.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-25

ALTER DEVICE

You should not use the ALTER DEVICE subcommand or the ISPF panels tomanually reassign PAV Base and Alias relationships for dynamically managed PAVdevices (WLMPAV=YES in the HCD definition) since WLM will probably overrideyour reassignment with its own. If you want to manually manage your PAV Baseand Alias relationships, you will need to change your HCD definitions to redefineyour PAV devices as statically managed (WLMPAV=NO in the HCD definition).Refer to IBM's MVS Planning: Workload Management and HCD Planning for moreinformation.

Abbreviation: PAVB

Values: base_fdid is the same as a functional device identifier: 1 to 3hexadecimal digits (0 to FFF).

Ranges, lists, and wildcard characters cannot be used

Default value: None

Example: PAVB(411)

PRIVILEGEDECAM (YES | NO)Conditional (This is one of a group of nine parameters of which you must enter atleast one: CACHE, CKDENA, CKDRW, DFW, NM, PRIVLG, SCSIADDR, SCSIEN, andSCSIRW.)

This parameter specifies whether the functional device is eligible for use as thetransmission path for Category 1-restricted SVAA Extended Control and Monitoring(ECAM) messages to the SVA subsystem.

Note: For PRIVLG(YES) to take effect, the device must also be designated anECAM device with the SET ECAMDEVICE subcommand (see page 8-164 for details).

You can specify NO for most devices—to limit the number of privileged ECAMdevices—but you must specify PRIVLG(YES) for at least one device.

Note: You cannot specify PRIVLG(YES) for Power PPRC Bridge devices. Youcannot alter this value for PAV Alias devices

Abbreviation: PRIVLG

Values: YES or NO

Default value: None

Example: PRIVLG(YES)

SCSIADDRESS (domain.target.lun | DISable)Conditional (This is one of a group of nine parameters of which you must enter atleast one: CACHE, CKDENA, CKDRW, DFW, NM, PRIVLG, SCSIADDR, SCSIEN, andSCSIRW.)

This parameter either assigns or removes the SCSI address identifier for afunctional device. Entering a SCSI address (in the form of domain.target.lun)assigns it to the device. Entering DISable removes the current SCSI addressassignment from the device.

Note: You cannot specify a SCSIADDRESS for Power PPRC Bridge devices.

Abbreviation: SCSIADDR

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-26 SVAA Configuration and Administration

ALTER DEVICE

Values: domain.target.lun or DISable

domain.target.lun (3 decimal numbers separated by periods)specifies a SCSI address, where:

domain is the logical domain address (1 to 2 decimal digits)target is the SCSI target identifier (1 to 2 decimal digits)lun is the logical unit number (LUN) for the SCSI physical

device (1 to 3 decimal digits)

Default value: None

Examples: SCSIADDRESS(�.8.15)SCSIADDR(1.�3.�3 �.�7.12)SCSIADDR(DIS)

SCSIENABLE (YES | NO)Conditional (This is one of a group of nine parameters of which you must enter atleast one: CACHE, CKDENA, CKDRW, DFW, NM, PRIVLG, SCSIADDR, SCSIEN, andSCSIRW.)

This parameter enables or disables host access to the SCSI functional device.

Note: You cannot specify SCSIENABLE(YES) for Power PPRC Bridge devices.

Abbreviation: SCSIENA

Values: YES or NO

Default value: None

Example: SCSIENA(NO)

SCSIREADWRITE (YES | NO)Conditional (This is one of a group of nine parameters of which you must enter atleast one: CACHE, CKDENA, CKDRW, DFW, NM, PRIVLG, SCSIADDR, SCSIEN, andSCSIRW.)

This parameter specifies whether write access to the SCSI functional device is to beallowed. YES allows writes; NO allows no writes.

Note: You cannot specify SCSIREADWRITE(YES) for Power PPRC Bridge devices.

Abbreviation: SCSIRW

Values: YES or NO

Default value: None

Example: SCSIRW(YES)

VERIFY (subparameters)Optional

This parameter provides a way for you to insure that you are modifying the correctdevices and values. Enter one or more of the following subparameters, togetherwith what you expect its current value to be.

FDID (fdid) DEVTYP (dvctype)

CACHE (ENA | DIS)CKDENA (YES | NO)CKDRW (YES | NO)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-27

ALTER DEVICE

DFW (ENA | DIS) NM (dvcname)

PART (PROD | TEST) PAVB (base_fdid)

PRIVLG (YES | NO)SCSIADDR (domain.target.lun | DIS)SCSIEN (YES | NO)SCSIRW (YES | NO)

Notes:

1. To use VERIFY FDID you must specify the devices in the subcommand with theUNIT parameter (see example below).

2. You can verify the current DEVICETYPE and PARTITION for the devices,although you cannot alter these values with the ALTER DEVICE subcommand.

The VERIFY parameter compares the values you specify to the actual currentvalues for the device. If all subparameter values you enter match the currentvalues, the ALTER continues. However, if the VERIFY fails, the ALTER DEVICEsubcommand is rejected.

Abbreviation: VER

Default value: None

Examples of ALTER DEVICE Example 1.

ALTER DEVICE (- SUBSYS(SVASYS�2)- FDID(D'128':D'137' D'139')- CKDRW(YES) )

This subcommand allows write access to CKD functional devices 128 through 137and also 139 in SVA subsystem SVASYS�2.

Example 2.

ALT DEV (- SUBSYS('svasub1')- UNIT(22B)- PRIVLG(YES)-

VER(FDID(2B) PRIVLG(NO)) )

This subcommand first verifies that functional device 2B in SVA subsystem svasub1is defined to the host system as unit �22B and is not currently defined as aprivileged ECAM device. If the VERIFY succeeds, the subcommand redefinesfunctional device 2B as a privileged ECAM device.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-28 SVAA Configuration and Administration

ALTER SUBSYSTEM

Example 3.

ALT DEV (- SUBSYS(SVASUBA)- UNIT(22A:22F)- NM(SPECS�1:SPECS�6)- VER(FDID(2A:2F)) )

This subcommand first verifies that functional devices 2A through 2F in subsystemSVASUBA are defined to the host system as units �22A through �22F. If the VERIFYsucceeds, the subcommand names the devices SPECS�1 through SPECS�6.

Example 4.

ALT DEV (- SUBSYS(SVASUB3)- FDID(7FF)- PAVB(7�1)- VER(PAVB(7��)) )

On SVA subsystem SVASUB3 this subcommand verifies that functional device 7FF asan Alias device that is currently related to functional device 7��, a Base device. Ifverification is successful, Alias 7FF is reassigned to functional device 7�1, apreviously-existing Base device.

ALTER SUBSYSTEM Subcommand

* Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN

The ALTER SUBSYSTEM subcommand enables you to:

� Change (only on the 9393 or 9500 SVA) the array-size setting for thesubsystem: 5+2 or 13+2. The only array size available on the V2Xf, V2X orV960 SVA is 13+2.

� Change an existing SVA subsystem name� Change your site name� Enable service information messages (SIMs) for SCSI devices� Assign subsystem IDs (SSIDs) for emulated 3990 controllers� Designate the total number of concurrent PPRC pair synchronizations

Notes:

1. Two individual parameters (SSIDBASE and VCUSSID) and a group of parameters(SSID0 through SSID3) are available for assigning SSIDs. These parameters aremutually exclusive; you can use only one method—either SSIDBASE, VCUSSID,or the SSID0 through SSID3 group.

2. You cannot redefine an SSID on a subsystem on which PPRC is enabled. Youmust first have your hardware support representative disable PPRC capabilityfor the subsystem. After you have redefined the SSID, PPRC can be re-enabledfor the subsystem.

Abbreviation: SUBSYS

Values: subsys is the SVA subsystem name.

Note: If the subsystem name contains lowercase characters andSET CASE(UPPER) is in effect, you must enclose the name inmatching quotes.

Default value: None

Examples: SUBSYS(ICESYS2)SUBSYS('icesuba1')

ARRAYSIZE (5+2 | 13+2)Optional

This parameter specifies the number of drive modules to be used in forming a newarray (user data drives + redundancy data drives). This does not affect existingarrays.

Abbreviation: ARYSI

Values: 5+2 or 13+2

New arrays will have a drive module capacity equivalent to the firstvalue plus the second value—for example, 5+2 indicates acapacity equivalent to 5 user data drives and 2 redundancy drives.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-30 SVAA Configuration and Administration

ALTER SUBSYSTEM

Note: You can form a 5+2 array only on the 9393 or 9500SVA—not on earlier subsystems or on the V2X or V960 SVA.

Default value: None

Example: ARYSI(13+2)

COPYLIM (limit)Optional

This parameter specifies the total number of concurrent PPRC pair synchronzationsper SVA subsystem. The total includes the number of pairs being established withMODE(COPY) as well as the number of formerly suspended pairs beingre-established with MODE(RESYNC).

Abbreviation: COPYL

Values: limit is the total number of concurrent PPRC pair synchronzationsper SVA subsystem: 1 to 2 decimal digits from 0 to 32.

A value of 0 allows the SVA subsystem to limit synchronization toup to four PPRC pairs established between a primary andsecondary subsystem.

A non-zero value specifies the number of background copysessions allowed to execute concurrently while synchronizingprimary and secondary device pairs.

You cannot use ranges, lists, or wildcard characters.

Note: Changes to COPYLIM do not necessarily take effectimmediately. If the value of COPYLIM is increased, newsynchronizations are immediately added up to the new value.However, if the value is decreased, current synchronizations arenot immediately removed. As pairs complete synchronization, thetotal number of synchronizations is gradually reduced down to thenew value.

Default value: 0

Examples: COPYLIM(4)COPYL(4)

NEWNAME (newsubsys)Optional

This parameter specifies the new name to be assigned to the SVA subsystem.

Note: Within your site, each SVA subsystem name must be unique.

Abbreviation: NEWNM

Values: newsubsys is a new subsystem name, 1 to 8 characters long. Thefollowing characters are accepted, even as the first character: a toz, A to Z, 0 to 9, $, @, #, -, _, +, &, ., /

Note: If SET CASE(UPPER) is in effect, and you use lowercasecharacters in the name and don't want them converted touppercase, you must enclose the name in matching quotes.

Default value: None

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-31

ALTER SUBSYSTEM

Examples: NEWNAME(1SUBSYS)NEWNM(SUBSYS_2)NEWNM('subsys1')

SCSISIM (ENAble | DISable)Optional

Default value: None

Example: SCSISIM(ENA)

SITE (sitename)Optional

You can use this parameter to identify your company, organization, or location.Use this name when you call StorageTek Software Support

Values: sitename is a name of your choosing. You can enter 1 to 8characters or a null string. The following characters are accepted,even as the first character: a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9, $, @, #, -,_, +, &, ., / A null string, entered as SITE('') or SITE(""), setsthe name to all blanks.

Note: If SET CASE(UPPER) is in effect, and you use lowercasecharacters in the site name and don't want them converted touppercase, you must enclose the name in matching quotes.

Default value: None

Examples: SITE(“AcmeBank”)SITE(REMOTE1)

SSIDBASE (ssid)Optional If you enter this parameter, you cannot use the VCUSSID parameter orthe SSID0 through SSID3 parameters.

This parameter enables you to assign SSIDs to all virtual control units (VCUs) in thesubsystem by entering one SSID—for VCU 0 (the “base” SSID). Consecutivehexadecimal SSIDs are assigned to all VCUs in ascending order, beginning with thebase SSID.

Notes:

1. This parameter changes any existing SSIDs that are different from the sequenceof SSIDs defined by the SSIDBASE value.

2. You must assign a unique SSID to each VCU in your installation.

3. The actual number of SSIDs is governed by the maximum number of virtualcontrol units supported by the subsystem (see “Functional Differences betweenSubsystems” on page 1-2).

4. You cannot redefine an SSID on a subsystem on which PPRC is enabled. Youmust first have your hardware support representative disable PPRC capabilityfor the subsystem. Then, after you have redefined the SSID, PPRC can bere-enabled for the subsystem.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-32 SVAA Configuration and Administration

ALTER SUBSYSTEM

Values: 4 hexadecimal digits ranging from 0001 to FFFC.

You cannot use ranges or wildcard characters.

Note: The SSID value specified must not allow the last SSID toexceed FFFF. For example, on a subsystem that supports 16SSIDs, FFF0 is the highest valid entry for SSIDBASE.

Default form: Hexadecimal

Default value: None

Example: SSIDBASE(��F�)

VCUSSID (vcu.ssid ... )Optional If you enter this parameter, you cannot use the SSIDBASE parameter orthe SSID0 through SSID3 parameters.

Each SSID (subsystem identifier) is used to identify a different VCU (a 3990controller emulated by the SVA subsystem). This parameter enables you to assignSSIDs to one or more VCUs individually.

Notes:

1. You must assign a unique SSID to each VCU in your installation.

2. The actual number of SSIDs is governed by the maximum number of virtualcontrol units supported by the subsystem (see “Functional Differences betweenSubsystems” on page 1-2).

3. You cannot redefine an SSID on a subsystem on which PPRC is enabled. Youmust first have your hardware support representative disable PPRC capabilityfor the subsystem. Then, after you have redefined the SSID, PPRC can bere-enabled for the subsystem.

Values: Each vcu.ssid entry assigns an SSID to a VCU, where:

vcu is a 1- or 2-digit (decimal) virtual control unit number.ssid is a unique 4-digit (hexadecimal) subsystem identifier

ranging from 0001 to FFFF.

You cannot use ranges or wildcard characters.

Default value: None

Examples: VCUSSID(�.��1�)VCUSSID(13.��F1 14.��F2 5.��E5)

SSID0 through SSID3 (ssid0 through ssid3)Optional If you enter any of these four parameters, you cannot use the SSIDBASEor VCUSSID parameter.

Note: The VCUSSID and SSIDBASE parameters are replacements for the SSID0,SSID1, SSID2 and SSID3 parameters. Therefore, SSID0, SSID1, SSID2 and SSID3 willbe removed from this document with the next release of SVAA.

Each SSID (subsystem identifier) is used to identify a different VCU (a 3990controller emulated by the SVA subsystem).

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-33

ALTER SUBSYSTEM

Notes:

1. You must assign a unique SSID to each VCU in your installation.

2. You cannot redefine an SSID on a subsystem on which PPRC is enabled. Youmust first have your hardware support representative disable PPRC capabilityfor the subsystem. Then, after you have redefined the SSID, PPRC can bere-enabled for the subsystem.

Values: ssid� through ssid3 are unique, four-digit (hexadecimal)subsystem identifiers ranging from 0001 to FFFF.

Default form: Hexadecimal

Default value: None

Examples: SSID�(��F�)SSID1(X'��F1')

VERIFY (subparameters)Optional

This parameter provides a way for you to insure that you are modifying the correctsubsystem value. The VERIFY parameter compares the values you specify to theactual current values for the SVA subsystem. If all subparameter values you entermatch the current values, the ALTER continues. However, if the VERIFY fails, theALTER SUBSYSTEM subcommand is rejected.

Enter one or more of the following subparameters (exceptions: see Notes below),together with what you expect its current value to be.

VCUSSID (vcu.ssid ... ) SSID0 (ssid0) SSID1 (ssid1) SSID2 (ssid2) SSID3 (ssid3)

Notes:

1. The three forms of specifying SSIDs are mutually exclusive. You can entereither SSIDBASE or VCUSSID, or one or more of SSID0 through SSID3.

2. There must be match between the SSID-related subparameters (SSIDBASE,VCUSSID, SSID0, SSID1, SSID2, or SSID3) you specify in the VERIFY parameter,and the SSID-related parameters you specify in the non-VERIFY portion of theALTER SUBSYSTEM subcommand.

To illustrate, here are some correct and incorrect examples.

Correct examples:

Examples of ALTER SUBSYSTEM Example 1.

ALTER SUBSYSTEM (- SUBSYSTEM(IBSUB�1)- ARRAYSIZE(13+2)- SSIDBASE(�4��) )

For SVA subsystem IBSUB�1, this subcommand sets the array size for thesubsystem to 13+2 (newly formed arrays will have a capacity equivalent to 13 userdata drives and 2 redundancy data drives). SSIDs are assigned to all VCUs(emulated 3990 controllers) in the subsystem beginning with �4�� for VCU 0.

Example 2.

ALT SUBSYS (-VER(SITE('MainHQ') ARYSI(13+2) )-

SUBSYS(SUBSYSA1)- ARYSI(5+2)- NEWNM(ICESUBA1) )

This subcommand first verifies that, for SVA subsystem SUBSYSA1, the site name isdefined as MainHQ and that the current ARRAYSIZE setting for the subsystem is13+2. If the VERIFY succeeds, the subcommand renames the subsystem ICESUBA1and sets the array size for the subsystem to 5+2.

ATTN DEVICE

ATTN DEVICE Subcommand

* Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN* System Operator command

The ATTN DEVICE subcommand initiates a state-change interrupt for specificfunctional devices. State-change interrupts are sent to the interface in each pathgroup and all interfaces without path groups formed which are associated with adevice. If the host operating system misses a “device end” from the SVAsubsystem and experiences a hang condition, you can issue this subcommand inan attempt to free the condition.

ATTN DEVICE

UNIT (device)Conditional (To identify the device, you must enter either this parameter or theFDID parameter—not both. However, if the device is not defined to the hostoperating system in which SVAA is running, you must use FDID.)

This parameter specifies devices as they are defined to the host in which SVAA isrunning.

Values: device is a host device number: 1 to 4 hexadecimal digits.

Decimal representation (D prefix) is not accepted.

You can use ranges and lists, but not wildcard characters.

Default form: Hexadecimal

Examples: UNIT(234)UNIT(X'�234')UNIT(222:233)UNIT(2�� 3��)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-37

DEFINE DEVICE

DEFINE DEVICE Subcommand

* Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN

The DEFINE DEVICE subcommand defines the characteristics of a functional device.You can define up to 4096 devices in a V2X SVA, but only 1024 in earlier SVAsubsystems. (These numbers are lower if any 3390-9 devices are defined.)

Notes:

1. In VM, a newly defined device may have an operating system status of BOXED.To gain access to a boxed device, you may have to vary it offline and thenonline again. (The VM BOXED status can also affect OS/390 operations whenOS/390 is running under VM.)

2. Once you have defined a device, you cannot alter its device type, FDID, PAVtype (Base/Alias), or partition. Instead, you must delete the device and thenredefine it with the new characteristics. If changing the device type or PAVtype, make sure that the change is consistent with the device definitions inHCD.

Important!

Always keep your V2Xf Base and Alias device definitions consistent withyour HCD.

It is extremely important to always keep your V2Xf Base and Alias devicedefinitions your HCD definitions. See “PAV Configuration Considerations” onpage 2-17 for more information.

3. A PAV Base device must be defined before any of its related Alias devices canbe defined. You cannot define a Base and its related Alias devices in a singledefine operation.

4. A Base device is not required to have any related Alias devices. However, ifthe Base device does have aliases, all Alias devices must be defined within thesame Virtual Control Unit (VCU); crossing VCU boundaries is not allowed.Since a VCU has a maximum of 256 devices, a single Base device can bedefined with up to 255 Aliases, or 128 Base devices can be defined with oneAlias each, etc.

5. Initialization of an Alias device during the device definition process is notallowed.

6. When defining an Alias device, any specified values for the CACHE,CKDENABLE, CKDREADWRITE, DASDFASTWRITE, and PRIVILEGEDECAMparameters are ignored. The values of the related Base device are insteadimplicitly assigned to the Alias.

7. The NAME parameter cannot be specified when defining an Alias device.

Parameters

SUBSYSTEM (subsys)Required

This parameter specifies the name of the SVA subsystem for the devices to bedefined.

Abbreviation: SUBSYS

Values: subsys is the SVA subsystem name.

Note: If the subsystem name contains lowercase characters andSET CASE(UPPER) is in effect, you must enclose the name inmatching quotes.

Default value: None

Examples: SUBSYSTEM(SUB1)SUBSYS(SUBSYS1)SUBSYS('icebox1')

FUNCTIONALDEVICEID (fdid)Required

This parameter specifies the functional device identifiers (FDIDs) of the devices tobe defined.

Abbreviation: FDID

Values: fdid is a functional device identifier: 1 to 3 hexadecimal digits or 1to 4 decimal digits. See the table on page 1-2 for ranges of FDIDvalues by subsystem type.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-39

DEFINE DEVICE

FDID can be a range or list of Base devices, a range or list of Aliasdevices, but cannot be a range or list of Base and Alias devicesintermixed together in a single DEFINE DEVICE subcommand.

Default form: Hexadecimal (decimal values require the D prefix)

Examples: FDID(4�) (decimal 64)FDID(X'4�') (decimal 64)FDID(D'64') (decimal 64)

DEVICETYPE (dvctype)Required

This parameter specifies the type of functional device to be emulated.

Note: The device type (3380 or 3390) of an Alias device must always match thatof its related Base device. This requirement does not prevent an Alias from beingdefined to a Base device with a larger or smaller capacity, but it does prevent anyattempt to define an Alias of one device type to a Base of a different device type.For example, a 3380-J Alias cannot be defined and related to a 3390-9 Base, but a3390-9 Alias can be defined and related to a 3390-3 Base.

Abbreviation: DEVTYP

Values: dvctype identifies the device type and model descriptor andconsists of 5 to 6 alphanumeric characters.

Valid entries are: 338�J, 338�K, 338�KE, 339�1, 339�2, 339�3,339�9, SCSIA (3390-3 with SCSI format), and SCSIB (3390-9 withSCSI format).

Default value: None

Examples: DEVICETYPE(338�J)DEVTYP(339�1)DEVTYP(SCSIA)

CACHE (ENA | DIS)Optional

This parameter specifies whether caching for the functional device is to be enabledor disabled. This parameter setting has no effect on V2Xf operations orperformance. If CACHE is specified, a warning message is issued as a reminder,but the subcommand is not rejected.

When cache is disabled, caching is still turned on, but the caching algorithm ischanged. In a write operation, tracks are queued for immediate destaging to thearrays, instead of being held in cache. In a read operation, a track is staged tocache and then queued for deallocation from cache when the read is complete.

Values: ENA or DIS

Default value: ENA

Example: CACHE(DIS)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-40 SVAA Configuration and Administration

DEFINE DEVICE

CKDENABLE (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter enables or disables host access to the CKD functional device.

Abbreviation: CKDENA

Values: YES or NO

Default value: YES

Example: CKDENA(NO)

CKDREADWRITE (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter specifies whether to allow write access to the CKD functional device.YES allows writes; NO allows no writes.

Abbreviation: CKDRW

Values: YES or NO

Default value: YES

Example: CKDRW(NO)

DASDFASTWRITE (ENA | DIS)Optional

This parameter only provides 3990 compatibility; its setting has no effect on SVAoperations or performance. This parameter setting has no effect on V2Xfoperations or performance. If DASDFASTWRITE is specified, a warning messageis issued as a reminder, but the subcommand is not rejected.

Abbreviation: DFW

Values: ENA or DIS

Default value: ENA

Example: DFW(DIS)

DATABRIDGE (NO | YES)Optional

This parameter specifies whether the CKD functional device is to be defined as aPower PPRC Data Bridge. NO does not define the device as a Power PPRC DataBridge. YES does define the device as a Power PPRC Data Bridge, and the devicetype must be specified as 33909 in this case.

Abbreviation: DATA

Values: NO or YES

Default value: NO

Example: DATA(YES)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-41

DEFINE DEVICE

DEVCYLS (cylinders)Optional

This parameter specifies the number of cylinders to use when defining a CKDfunctional device as a FlexVolume or as a Large Volume. Use of the DEVCYLSparameter is subject to the following requirements:

� DEVCYLS is supported only on V2X, V2X2, and V2Xf subsystems.

� DEVCYLS cannot be specified with the DATABRIDGE or STATUSBRIDGE,parameters since Large Volumes and FlexVolumes cannot be defined asPPRC Bridge devices.

� DEVCYLS cannot be specified with the PAVBASE parameter. The PAVBASEparameter is used to define Alias devices. Large Volumes and FlexVolumescannot be defined as Alias devices. Even though DEVCYLS cannot bespecified for an Alias device itself, an Alias device can be defined and relatedto a Base device that is a Large Volume or a FlexVolume.

For example, FDID 400 defined as a 3390-9 Large Volume with 32760cylinders and its UCB is genned as a 3390B. FDID 4FF is currently not definedand its UCB is genned as a 3390A. You can define FDID 4FF as a 3390-9Alias device and relate it to FDID 400 as long as you don't specify theDEVCYLS parameter on the DEFINE DEVICE subcommand for FDID 4FF orchange the "Cyls" value on the SIBCA25 ISPF panel, if using ISPF to definethe Alias device.

� DEVCYLS cannot be specified when the DEVICETYPE parameter specifies aSCSI device type (SCSIA or SCSIB) since Large Volumes and FlexVolumescannot be defined as SCSI devices.

� Since SCSI devices are not supported on V2Xf subsystems, DEVCYLS cannotbe specified with the SCSIADDRESS, SCSIBLOCKSIZE, SCSIENABLE, orSCSIREADWRITE parameters on a V2Xf subsystem.

� Large Volumes can only be defined as 3390-9 CKD devices with 32760cylinders, so DEVICETYPE(33909) and DEVCYLS(32760) must be specifiedwhen defining a Large Volume.

� FlexVolumes can be defined as 3380 or 3390 CKD devices subject to thefollowing further requirements:

- DEVICETYPE(33901) or DEVICETYPE(33902) cannot be specified whendefining a FlexVolume in order to maintain compatibility with the IBM 2105ESS

- If DEVICETYPE(3380J) is specified, DEVCYLS must be a value from1-885 cylinders

- If DEVICETYPE(3380KE) is specified, DEVCYLS must be a value from886-1770 cylinders

- If DEVICETYPE(3380K) is specified, DEVCYLS must be a value from1771-2655 cylinders

- If DEVICETYPE(33903) is specified, DEVCYLS must be a value from1-3339 cylinders

- If DEVICETYPE(33909) is specified, DEVCYLS must be a value from3340-10017 cylinders if Large Volume microcode support is not installed orthe subsystem is a V2X or V2X2.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-42 SVAA Configuration and Administration

DEFINE DEVICE

- If DEVICETYPE(33909) is specified, DEVCYLS must be a value from3340-32760 cylinders if Large Volume microcode support is installed andthe subsystem is a V2Xf or V2X4f.

Note: A 3390-9 device defined with 32759 cylinders is technically aFlexVolume; a 3390-9 device defined with 32760 cylinders is technically aLarge Volume.

Abbreviation: DCYLS

Values: cylinders specifies the number of cylinders and must be a decimalvalue within the above limits. The absence of the DEVCYLSparameter on a DEFINE DEVICE subcommand implies that thedevice will be defined with the normal (default) number of cylindersfor that device type.

Default value: NO

Example: DCYLS(42)

INITIALIZE (UNIT (device) VOLUME (volser) )Optional

Use this parameter only if you are specifying a DEVICETYPE of SCSIA or SCSIB.

Note: If you are running as an MVS guest under VM, you cannot use thisparameter; there is no path. To initialize the device, you must first define thedevice (with this subcommand), then attach the device to the MVS system underVM, and finally initialize the device with the INITIALIZE DEVICE subcommand.

To initialize SCSI-format devices, this parameter specifies device numbers andvolume serial numbers (volsers) for each SCSIA or SCSIB device you are defining. Ifyou use this parameter, you must supply at least as many device numbers (units)and volsers as the number of FDIDs you are defining in this subcommand.

Abbreviation: INIT

The UNIT and VOLume subparameters are both required.

Values: UNIT(device) specifies one or more host device numbers (eachdevice is 1 to 4 hexadecimal digits).

VOL(volser) specifies one or more volume serial numbers (eachvolser is 6 alphanumeric characters).

You can enter lists and ranges of device numbers and volsers, butcannot use wildcard characters.

Default values: None

Examples: INIT( UNIT(22�) VOL(DATA12) )INIT( UNIT(2D4 2D6 2D7) VOLUME(PROD�2:PROD�4) )INIT( UNIT(3A�:3AD) VOL(FILE�1 FILE�2 FILE�5:FILE16) )

Notes:

1. The values for FDID, UNIT, and VOLUME can be specified in any order. Theorder of the values for one subparameter can be different from the order for theothers.

2. The values for FDID, UNIT, and VOLUME are associated by their relative positionwithin the expanded list of single values, lists of values, and ranges of values.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-43

DEFINE DEVICE

3. If you specify more device numbers (units) and volsers than FDIDs (specifiedwith the FDID parameter), the excess unit and volser numbers are ignored.

NAME (dvcname)Optional

This parameter specifies the names to be assigned to the functional devicesidentified by the FDID parameter.

Abbreviation: NM

Values: dvcname is a name for a functional device. You can enter 1 to 8characters or a null string. The following characters are accepted,even as the first character: a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9, $, @, #, -,_, +, &, ., / A null string, entered as NAME('') or NAME(""), setsthe name to all blanks.

Note: If SET CASE(UPPER) is in effect, and you use lowercasecharacters in a channel name and don't want them converted touppercase, you must enclose the name in matching quotes.

You can use ranges and lists, but not wildcard characters.

Notes:

1. When specifying a range, both names must contain at leastone numeric (decimal) character, which must be in theright-most position in each name (as in the third examplebelow).

2. In a range specification, hexadecimal “alphabetic digits” (A-F)are not recognized as numeric. See the rules and examplesfor specifying ranges (beginning on page 8-9).

Default value: None

Examples: NAME(PAYROLL)NM(PROJ71 PROJ112 PROJ149)NM(FILE��1:FILE��4)NM('myfile')

PARTITION (PRODUCTION | TEST)Optional

This parameter specifies the partition with which the device is to be associated.

Note: You cannot assign a device to the Test partition on the V2X, V960, or9500 SVA—only on subsystems running earlier microcode. See “FunctionalDifferences between Subsystems” on page 1-2 for more information.

Abbreviation: PART

Values: PROD or TEST

Default value: PROD

Example: PART(PROD)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-44 SVAA Configuration and Administration

DEFINE DEVICE

PAVBASE (base_fdid)Optional for Base devices; Required for Alias devices

This parameter specifies the Base device to which this Alias is related. PAVBASEcannot specify an Alias device.

To define a Base device, the PAVBASE parameter must not be specified on thedefine request, and the device must not already exist.

To define an Alias device, the PAVBASE parameter must be specified on thedefine request. The related Base device must already exist (it can be online oroffline), and the value of the PAVBASE parameter must specify the FDID of therelated Base.

Note: An Alias device can be reassigned to a different Base device in three ways:

1. automatically by the Workload Manager (WLM) component of a OS/390 orz/OS operating system

2. manually by using the SVAA ALTER DEVICE subcommand

3. manually by using the SVAA DEFINE DEVICE subcommand

Abbreviation: PAVB

Values: base_fdid is the same as a functional device identifier: 1 to 3hexadecimal digits (0 to FFF).

Ranges, lists, and wildcard characters cannot be used.

Default value: None

Example: PAVB(411)

PRIVILEGEDECAM (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter specifies whether the device is eligible for use as the transmissionpath for Category 1-restricted SVAA Extended Control and Monitoring (ECAM)messages to the SVA subsystem.

Note: For PRIVLG(YES) to take effect, the device must also be designated anECAM device with the SET ECAMDEVICE subcommand (see page 8-164 for details).

You can specify NO for most devices—to limit the number of privileged ECAMdevices—but you must specify PRIVLG(YES) for at least one device.

Abbreviation: PRIVLG

Values: YES or NO

Default value: NO

Example: PRIVLG(NO)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-45

DEFINE DEVICE

STATUSBRIDGE (NO | YES)Optional

This parameter specifies whether the CKD functional device is to be defined as aPower PPRC Status Bridge. NO does not define the device as a Power PPRCStatus Bridge. YES does define the device as a Power PPRC Status Bridge, andthe device type must be specified as 33903 in this case.

Abbreviation: STATUS

Values: NO or YES

Default value: NO

Example: STATUS(YES)

Examples of DEFINE DEVICE Example 1.

DEFINE DEVICE (- SUBSYS(IBSUB�1)- FDID(D'1':D'255')- DEVTYP(338�K)- NM(ICE��1:ICE255)- CACHE(ENA)- CKDENA- PART(PROD)- PRIVLG(NO) )

On SVA subsystem IBSUB�1, this subcommand defines the devices with FDIDsranging from 1 through 255 (decimal) as 338�K-type devices. It assigns namesranging from ICE��1 to ICE255, and assigns them to the Production partition. Itenables the CKD devices, enables caching for all of the devices, and specifies thatnone of the devices are to be privileged ECAM devices.

Example 2.

DEF DEV (- SUBSYS('subsysa')- FDID(8�)- DEVTYP(338�J)- NM(COMM�2)- CACHE(ENA)- CKDENA- CKDRW(NO) PRIVLG(YES) )

On SVA subsystem subsysa, this subcommand defines functional device 8� as a338�J-type device. It assigns the name COMM�2 to the device, enables it as a CKDdevice, disables write access, enables caching, and designates the device to be aprivileged ECAM device.

Example 3.

DEF DEV (- SUBSYS('subsysa')- FDID(7FF)- DEVTYP(339�3)- PAVB(7��) )

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-47

DEFINE DEVICE

On SVA subsystem subsysa, this subcommand defines functional device 7FF as anAlias with a device type of 339�-3. The Alias device is to be related to functionaldevice 7��, a previously-existing Base device.

Example 4.

DEF DEV (- SUBSYS(TEST)- FDID(�55)- DEVTYP(339�3)- DEVCYLS(42) )

On SVA subsystem TEST, this subcommand defines functional device �55 as aFlexVolume that is 42 cylinders in size.

Example 5.

DEF DEV (- SUBSYS(TEST)- FDID(FFF)- DEVTYP(339�9)- DEVCYLS(3276�) )

On SVA subsystem TEST, this subcommand defines functional device FFF as aLarge Volume. The device type must be 339�9 for a Large Volume.

DELETE DEVICE

DELETE DEVICE Subcommand

* Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN

The DELETE DEVICE subcommand deletes the definition of one or more SVAfunctional devices.

Notes:

1. All data on the device is effectively erased by this subcommand. Therefore,before you delete the device, you must back up any data that you want topreserve or move it to another functional device.

2. You must vary the devices (to be deleted) offline to all hosts before you issuethis subcommand.

Note: PAV Base devices must be varied offline before any related Aliasdevices can be deleted. Also, PAV Alias devices cannot be varied online oroffline.

3. In VM, if the device has an operating system status of BOXED, you may have to(1) vary the device offline to ensure status is OFFLINE, (2) vary it online toreestablish a path, and then (3) vary it offline again. (The VM BOXED statuscan also affect OS/390 operations when OS/390 is running under VM.)

4. You cannot delete a device that is part of a PPRC pair. You must first deletethe pair and then you may delete the device.

5. All PAV Alias devices (for a given Base device) must be deleted before thegiven Base device can be deleted. You cannot delete a Base and all of itsrelated Aliases in a single operation.

6. Although PAV Alias devices can be defined only if the PAV feature is installed,the feature is not required in order to delete PAV Base and Alias devices.

7. Alias devices cannot be deleted from an online Base except for the specialcase when they have been genned as Bases in HCD and misdefined asAliases to the V2Xf. In this special case only, it does not matter whether theBase is online or offline. Since the host operating system did not establish apath group to the Alias when it was misdefined, it can be safely deleted withoutrequiring that the Base device be varied offline.

8. The FORCE parameter is no longer required when deleting an Alias that isrelated to an offline Base device that contains user data.

DELETE DEVICE

FORCEOptional

This parameter indicates that a specified functional device is to be deleted eventhough it contains user data.

Notes:

1. You can use the FORCE parameter only for batch processing—not whenentering the subcommand interactively. Furthermore, you should use thisparameter in a batch file only after careful consideration (you cannot recoverthe data from a deleted device).

2. If user data exists on the device to be deleted, a message informs you of thefact and prompts you to enter FORCE if you still want to delete the device. Thismessage and prompt is no longer issued when deleting an Alias that is relatedto an offline Base device that contains user data.

You must have authorization to use the FORCE parameter. The kind ofauthorization depends upon whether the functional device is defined to the host(GENed); that is, whether the device is part of the host's current I/O configurationand is accessible to I/O requests.

Notes:

1. A device might be part of the a host's current I/O configuration, yet not mappedin SVAA's device mapping tables. This condition occurs when devices aremade available (but not varied online) to the MVS system that is running SVAA,after SVAA has been initialized.

For example, if you configure channels online with the MVS CONFIGcommand, or attach devices to a MVS guest system from VM, and thesedevices were not accessible at the time the SVAA subsystem was initialized,SVAA has no knowledge of these devices and considers them as not defined tothe host it is running on. If you attempt to delete one of these devices, thedelete may fail with a SIB1164E message indicating that you have insufficientauthority to access the subsystem.

In that case, you will need to either establish the proper security definitions(listed below and in SVAA for OS/390 Installation, Customization, andMaintenance) or refresh SVAA's knowledge of such devices (see RefreshingSVAA Feature or Device Mapping Status on MVS in Chapter 2).

2. If the device is defined to the host and the volser and VTOC can be accessed,you need RACF DASDVOL class ALTER authority for the device's volser.

3. If the DASDVOL class is not active on this host operating system, before youattempt to delete the device you must either: 1) disable the device (use theALTER DEVICE command and the CKDENA(NO) parameter), 2) vary all pathsoffline to the device on this host operating system, or 3) implement theSIBIOATX user exit, otherwise the delete will fail with a SIB1164E messageindicating that you have insufficient authority to access the subsystem.

4. If the device is not defined to the host, or is disabled, or the volser cannot beobtained, the VTOC cannot be checked for data sets and a more general classof authorization is required; you must have RACF FACILITY class ALTERauthority for the generalized resource IXFP.FORCE.DELETE.FUNC.DEV.Since Alias devices are always considered to not be defined to the host, thedeletion of Aliases will always use the RACF FACILITY class and the

DELETE DEVICE

generalized resource IXFP.FORCE.DELETE.FUNC.DEV profile for securitychecking.

5. See the SVAA for OS/390 Installation, Customization, and Maintenance manualfor information about defining security resources.

VERIFY (subparameters)Optional

This parameter provides a way for you to insure that you are deleting the correctdevice. Enter one or both of the following subparameters.

FDID (fdid) NM (dvcname)

Note: To use VERIFY FDID, you must use the UNIT parameter to specify thedevices in the subcommand itself (see Example 1. below).

The VERIFY parameter compares the FDID you specify to the unit number definedto the host operating system. If these parameters identify the same device, theDELETE continues. However, if the VERIFY fails, the DELETE DEVICE subcommandis rejected.

Abbreviation: VER

Default value: None

Examples of DELETE DEVICE Example 1. (Batch processing)

DELETE DEVICE (- SUBSYS(SVASYS)- UNIT(�22B)- FORCE- VER(FDID(2B)) )

This subcommand specifies that the functional device identified to the host systemas unit �22B is to be deleted. If functional device 2B in SVA subsystem SVASYS isverified as being the same device as unit �22B, the delete request proceeds. If thedevice contains data, the FORCE parameter allows the data to be deleted. (TheFORCE parameter can be used only in batch processing.)

Example 2.

DEL DEV (- SUBSYS('svasub1')- FDID(A�:A3) )

This subcommand deletes the functional devices with FDIDs ranging from A�through A3 in SVA subsystem svasub1. (It specifies no verification; the devices areidentified only by FDID.)

LISTCFG SUBSYSTEM Subcommand

* Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN

The LISTCFG SUBSYSTEM subcommand provides three types (or levels) of SVAsubsystem reports: on functional devices, channel interfaces, and drive modules.You can specify one, two, or all three report types. The destination for the report(the terminal or a file) is determined by the OUTFILE parameter of the SETDESTINATION subcommand.

You can redirect the report output to a file (for later printing) by including theredirection option in the subcommand. For more information, see “RedirectingSubcommand Output” on page 8-10.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-111

LISTCFG Report Headings

DEVICE TYPE - CLASSThe class of a physical drive in the SVA subsystem. Beginning withthe 9500 SVA, CLASS values are not used and the value shown inreports is always zero.

DEVICE TYPE SUB-CLASSThe sub-class of a physical drive in the SVA subsystem. Thesub-classes are defined as follows: 2 = ESDI or SCSI strapped, 3 =SCSI unstrapped, 4 = 4-GB drive, 5 = 9-GB drive, 6 = 18-GB drive, and7 = 36-GB drive.

DFW The status of DASD fast write for a functional device:Y = enabled; N = disabled.

DISK ARRAY CAPACITY (MB)The back-end storage (in megabytes) available in the subsystem(shown for the Production partition, Test partition, and overall).

ECAM The status of a functional device's use as a privileged ECAM device:Y = device is designated to be a privileged ECAM device; N = device isnot a privileged ECAM device.

FDID The SVA subsystem identifier for the functional device (values: 00 -FF).

FREE SPACE PCT(See COLLECTED FREE SPACE %, UNCOLLECTED FREE SPACE %)

FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY (MB)The functional capacity (in megabytes) defined for the device orpartition.

ID (See INTERFACE ID)

INTERFACE IDThe channel interface identifier associated with a specific cluster(values: A through P).

INTERFACE NAMEThe name you assigned to the channel interface.

NAME The name you assigned to the functional device.

NET CAP. LOAD (MB)The back-end physical capacity (in megabytes) that is currently in use.This includes user data and the system areas needed to maintain thearrays. NCL does not include data in the cache until that data iswritten to the back end.

Note: This value includes the storage used by the mapping tablesand functional track directories used to maintain the disk arrays.

NET CAP. LOAD PCTThe percentage of back-end physical capacity that is used (not free).This will display greater than 100% if Capacity on Demand support isinstalled and if PCAP is exceeded.

NUMBER OF FUNCTIONAL DEVICESThe number of functional devices defined with back-end storage in thesubsystem.

NUMBER OF SCSI DOMAINSThe total number of SCSI domains in the subsystem.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-112 SVAA Configuration and Administration

LISTCFG Report Headings

NUMBER OF SCSI LUNSThe total number of SCSI logical unit numbers in the subsystem.

NUMBER OF SCSI TARGETSThe total number of SCSI targets in the subsystem.

NVS SIZE The size (in megabytes) of nonvolatile cache storage (backed up bybattery).

OVERALL TOTALSThe sum of the test partition and production partition totals. Forstatistics that are ratios, including percentages, the totals are theweighted averages of the individual statistics.

PAV STATUS The PAV STATUS column indicates whether the device is a PAV Baseor Alias.

The PAV status may be one of the following values:

� B indicates the device is a Base device with no Aliases.� B(nnn) indicates the device is a Base device with nnn Aliases.� A—fff indicates the device is an Alias that is related to Base FDID

of fff.� A—??? indicates that the Alias is in error; contact StorageTek

Software Support.

PHYSICAL CAP USED (MB) - SHAREDThe back-end physical space (in megabytes) that is used (shared) bymultiple functional devices as a result of a SNAP subcommand.

Note: When a SNAP DATASET or SNAP VOLUME subcommand isexecuted, the space (megabytes) used by the source data set orvolume is shifted from the UNIQUE column to the SHARED column.Similarly, the space used by the target data set or volume is shifted tothe SHARED column, as well.

PHYSICAL CAP USED (MB) - UNIQUEThe back-end physical space (in megabytes) that is used by only onefunctional device. Amounts in this column represent space used bydata for which no SNAP subcommand has been executed.

PHYSICAL CAP USED (MB) - TOTALThe total (shared + unique) back-end physical space (in megabytes)that is used by a functional device. Due to snap operations, theTOTAL PHYSICAL CAP USED shown in the Selected Devices Summarycan be much higher than the NET CAP. LOAD(MB) figure shown in theSubsystem Summary section.

Note: The values reported for the three terms above do not includethe storage used by the mapping tables and functional trackdirectories used to maintain the disk arrays.

PPRC STAT The PPRC STAT column indicates whether the device is part of a aPPRC pair and/or whether the device is a Power PPRC Bridge device.

The PPRC pair status is shown in the left side of the column and maytake on one of the following values:

� A blank indicates the device is not part of any PPRC pair.� A P indicates the device is a PPRC Primary.� An S indicates the device is a PPRC Secondary.

PPRCOPY

| PPRCOPY Subcommand

| * Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN

| The PPRCOPY subcommand configures the Peer to Peer Remote Copy (PPRC)| paths. This subcommand may be used in place of the TSO or ICKDSF commands| to establish, terminate, and query PPRC paths.

| See the V2X or V2Xf Peer-to-Peer Remote Copy Configuration and User's Guide| for a complete description of PPRC configuration and administration.

| The SVAA PPRCOPY command provides support to establish, terminate, and query| PPRC paths.

| � Non-WWNN domain — For V2X or V2Xf, use the “Serial Number” syntax to| establish the path(s).

| � WWNN domain — For V2Xf, use the “World Wide Node Name” syntax to| establish the path(s). Use this syntax for cascaded switch support (greater than| one FICON switch in series).

| Once PPRC paths have been established, use TSO or ICKDSF to establish PPRC| pairs, and to freeze, terminate, recover, suspend, and run consistency groups.

| PPRCOPY implements command-level security by introducing new resource rules| that can be defined to further enhance your security by implementing restricted or| non-restricted commands. See the SVAA Installation, Customization, and| Maintenance manual, steps 15 and 16, for more information about security| procedures.

| PPRCopy ESTPATH| Use the PPRCopy ESTPATH command to establish ESCON or FCP (FICON)| PPRC paths between a primary (application) site control subsystem and a| secondary (recovery) site control subsystem. Mixing FCP and ESCON paths| between storage subsystems is not allowed.

| PPRCOPY ESTPATH is a “replace” function. Each command can establish up to| four paths for a V2X or eight paths for a V2Xf/V2X4f.

| Each primary virtual control unit (VCU) can, at any one time, be linked to a| maximum of four secondary virtual control units. A separate PPRCOPY ESTPATH| command is required for each VCU.

Parameters

RELEASEIDENTIFIER (relid)Required

This parameter defines a unique name for the DDSR interval task.

Abbreviation: RELID

Values: relid is the release task identifier for this DDSR interval task. You canuse 1 to 16 characters in the set: a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9, $, @, #, -,+, _, &, ., /

Note: If SET CASE(UPPER) is in effect, and you use lowercasecharacters in the release task identifier and don't want them converted touppercase, you must enclose the identifier in matching quotes.

Default value: None

Example: RELID('task�11')

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-143

RELEASE INTERVALDATA

DEFER (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter specifies when the space release task is to begin processing.

Values: NO specifies that the space release task is to begin processingimmediately.

YES specifies that the space release task is to begin processing after thefirst time interval expires.

If the space release task is automatically started when the OS/390operating system is started, it is advisable to specify a YES on any RELINTDAT subcommand in the space release initialization parameters. Thisdelays space release processing and avoids potential volume contentionduring the critical system startup period.

Default value: NO

Example: DEFER(NO)

EXTENTMAP (RETAIN | DISCARD)Optional

This parameter specifies whether the DDSR interval task is to retain the map of free extentson each volume from one interval to the next. The retained extent map is compared to thefree extents on the volume during the next interval process. Retaining the extent mapoptimizes DDSR performance but can miss extents for a data set that is allocated, written,and deleted between intervals.

Abbreviation: EXTMAP

Values: RET specifies that the extent map is to be retained from interval tointerval.

DISC specifies that the space release task is to release all free extents onthe volume.

Default value: RET

Example: EXTMAP(DISC)

INTERVAL (nnnn[M] | nnH)Optional

This parameter specifies the space release interval in either minutes or hours.

Abbreviation: INT

Values: nnnn[M] specifies the number of minutes (0 to 1440) in the interval.Enter 1 to 4 digits; leading zeros are allowed. M is optional.

nnH specifies the number of hours (0 to 24) in the interval. Enter 1 or 2digits; a leading zero is allowed. H is required.

If you specify an interval of zero, the DDSR interval task beginsprocessing immediately. It terminates when space release processing forthe selected devices is complete (a “one-time” space release).

If you specify an interval greater than zero, the interval task remainsactive until it is stopped or suspended. When space release processing iscompleted for the selected devices, the task waits for the specifiedinterval before it resumes processing.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-144 SVAA Configuration and Administration

RELEASE INTERVALDATA

Default value: �M (zero minutes)

Example: INT(�3H)

REPLACE (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter indicates whether parameter values specified in this subcommand are toreplace the corresponding parameter values of a running space release task—if a releasetask with the same relid is already running.

Values: The effects of this parameter depend upon the current status of thespecified space release task:

NO specifies:

� If a space release task with an identical relid is currently running,the REL INTDAT subcommand is rejected.

� If no space release task with the specified relid is currentlyrunning, a new task is started.

YES specifies:

� If a space release task with an identical relid is currently running,the task immediately interrupts its processing, and restarts with thenew parameters.

Note that none of the previous parameter values are retained; youmust include all the necessary parameter values in the currentsubcommand.

� If no space release task with the specified relid is currentlyrunning, a new task is started.

Default value: NO (request to start a new space release task)

Example: REPLACE(NO)

RESERVELIMIT (nn[S] )Optional

This parameter sets the maximum length of time (in seconds) for which the DDSR intervaltask can hold an exclusive RESERVE on a volume.

If the interval task is unable to reserve a volume, it skips the device and continuesprocessing other selected devices. When all selected devices have been processed, theinterval task makes another attempt to process the volumes for which it was unable toobtain the RESERVE. If the second RESERVE fails, the volume is bypassed and processedwhen the next time interval expires.

Abbreviation: RESLIM

Values: nn[S] specifies the number of seconds (1 to 90) for the reserve limit.Enter 1 or 2 digits; a leading zero is allowed. S is optional.

Default value: 15 seconds

Example: RESLIM(1�S)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-145

RELEASE INTERVALDATA

SUBSYSTEM (subsys)Optional

This parameter specifies the name of one or more SVA subsystems to be checked for spacethat can be released.

Abbreviation: SUBSYS

Values: subsys is the SVA subsystem name.

Note: If a subsystem name contains lowercase characters and SETCASE(UPPER) is in effect, you must enclose the name in matchingquotes.

You can use ranges, lists, and wildcard characters.

Default value: If you do not enter any device selection parameter (SUBSYS, VOL,EXSUBSYS, or EXVOL), no functional devices are processed for spacerelease.

SET CACHEREFRESHRATE

SET Subcommands

The SET subcommands control the setting or define the value of SVAA variables. Thedefault values shown in the subcommand descriptions are the values that are in effect ifyou have not explicitly defined them with the SET subcommand.

Parameter values set with the SET subcommands are not saved from one invocation ofSIBADMIN or SIBBATCH to the next.

SET subcommands issued under SIBADMIN apply only to the current execution ofSIBADMIN (and SIBBATCH does not have access to the variables set under SIBADMIN).Issue SET subcommands for SIBBATCH in a REXX EXEC, or issue them in either theSIBSTK00 parmlib member or in another parmlib member specified with the =PARMLIBparameter of the SIBBATCH command.

SET CACHEREFRESHRATE* Subcommand of SIBSFC

This subcommand sets the cache refresh intervals used by the SVAA Server. These valuesare supplied during initialization of the SVAA Server address space.

Point-in-Time ReportsThe settings for the cache refresh intervals determine how data for the point-in-time reportsis collected whether:

� at periodic intervals and saved in the SVAA server's cache

� or only when a report is requested

When a cache refresh rate is set to DEFAULT or a specific number of seconds, a thread iscreated to collect data at the requested interval. There are ten cache types for an SVA. If

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-155

SET CACHEREFRESHRATE

each cache type has an associated interval, ten threads are created at SVAA Serverinitialization. An additional ten threads are created for each SVA being monitored.

At its specified interval, the thread collects data and stores it in the SVAA server's cache.When a point-in-time report is requested, the report is generated using data stored in theserver's cache. As a result, the report may represent the statistics from the last collection,but reports are generated quickly.

Note: Care should be taken when setting the refresh interval to a value lower than thedefault (900 seconds) since I/O, CPU, and memory resources may be affected. Be sure tomonitor your resource consumption after switching to a lower interval.

If the cache refresh interval is OFF, no thread is created, and data is not collected atintervals or stored in the server's cache. The use of cache is disabled. However,point-in-time reports can still be generated.

If the cache refresh interval is OFF and a report is requested, I/O is performed to obtainthe data necessary to produce the report. Consequently, reports are not produced until afterall I/O has completed, and producing reports using this method may take longer. On theother hand, the report's data may be more current.

Notes:

1. A SET CACHEREFRESHRATE subcommand has no impact after the SIBSFCxxmember of parmlib is processed.

2. Use the QUERY CACHEREFRESHRATE subcommand to display the currentcache refresh intervals.

3. Use the SET SERVERIDLETIME subcommand to control whether the SVAAserver cache should continue to collect SVA subsystem data during periodswhen the SVAA Server has no requests to process.

CAUTION:The output from the point-in-time reports can not be compared to thatproduced by the SAS reports. Many of the SAS reports use historical datawhich is not available to the point-in-time reports.

SET DUMP

Note: In the TSO environment, follow standard data setnaming conventions; that is, enclose a data set name inquotes if it is fully qualified.

DeFauLT In OS/390 batch, OUTFile defaults to the destinationspecified by the SYSPRINT DD name. OUTMsg defaults tothe destination specified by the SYSTERM DD name.

In TSO, both destinations default to TERMINAL.

In ISPF, both destinations default to VARIABLE.

OFF Suppress output.

TERMinal Display output at the terminal.

VARiable Direct output to exec stem variables (not valid inSIBBATCH environment).

SVAA output for destination OUTMSG is written to stemvariable SIBLMSG.n. This allows a REXX EXEC to issuean SVAA subcommand and analyze the returned results(messages and reports) in REXX variables.

Output for destination OUTFILE is written to the stemvariable SIBRMSG.n (n is the value of an occurrence ofSIBLMSG or SIBRMSG).

The variables with n=0 contain the number of variablesgenerated. For example, if SIBRMSG.0=17, then variablesSIBRMSG.1 through SIBRMSG.17 contain the data. TheSIBRMSGn and SIBLMSGn variables are set to 0 before theexecution of each SVAA subcommand.

Note: REXX must be available to use this value.

Default value: DFLT

Example: SET DEST(OUTFILE(ddn:systst) OUTMSG(VAR) )

ParametersThe parameters of the SNAP DATASET subcommand follow in alphabetical order.

CATALOG (YES | NO)Optional

When SnapShot dynamically allocates the target data set, this parameter determineswhether a new target data set is to be cataloged when it is created by the SNAP DATASETsubcommand. SnapShot supports Integrated Catalog Facility (ICF) catalog entries only.

Note: This parameter is for new data sets only. It is not used to evaluate or controlexisting non-cataloged target data sets, and has no effect on source data sets.

Abbreviation: CAT

Values: YES specifies that the allocated target data set is to be cataloged.

NO specifies that the allocated target data set is not to be cataloged. Thisoption is supported only for target data sets that must be created and arenot SMS managed.

Notes:

1. CAT(N) is ignored for SMS-managed data sets, because SMSonly allows the creation of cataloged data sets onSMS-managed volumes.

2. CAT(N) is ignored when the OUTDDNAME parameter is used.

3. CAT(N) is ignored for VSAM data sets.

4. If you specify CAT(N) for a PDSE data set, SnapShot issues amessage and catalogs the target data set.

Default value: YES

Example: CAT(N)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-173

SNAP DATASET

DATACLASS (classname)Optional

This parameter specifies the SMS data class to be assigned to the target data set.

Abbreviation: DATACLAS

Values: classname specifies a locally defined data class to be assigned to thetarget data set.

Note: Contact your storage administrator to determine the valid dataclass names for your site.

Default value: None.

Security: You must have SAF or equivalent authorization for the data classspecified.

Example: DATACLAS(DCLASSX)

Notes:

1. SnapShot ignores this parameter if you specify OUTDDNAME.

2. No attempt is made to update data class information for an existing data set.

3. SnapShot will not assign the source data class to a target data setautomatically. You must ensure that the correct data class is assigned to thetarget data set by using the DATACLASS parameter or ACS selection.

DATAMOVERNAME (NONE | ADRDSSU | DFDSS | DSS)Optional

Snapping requires a data mover when the source and target data sets do not reside in thesame SVA subsystem and partition. This parameter specifies a data mover program tophysically copy the data set in cases when you cannot use SnapShot.

SnapShot dynamically invokes the data mover and supplies the commands to accomplishthe snap operation physically. A message notifies you that the data mover is beinginvoked.

The DFSMSdss utility control statement for a data set is:

COPY TRACK() OUTTRACKS() CANCELERROR PURGE OPTIMIZE(4)

If you do not specify the DATAMOVERNAME parameter and the data mover is needed, orif SnapShot is unable to access the data mover, the operation is cancelled. All copiesmade with a data mover mimic the physical copying nature of SnapShot (they are tracklevel, not logical).

Abbreviation: DMNM

Values: NONE specifies that a data mover is not to be used.

ADRDSSU, DFDSS, or DSS is the name of the data mover to be used (eachrefers to the IBM DFSMSdss utility).

Default value: NONE

Example: DMNM(ADRDSSU)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-174 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP DATASET

Notes:

1. The time required to copy a data set of numerous tracks can be significantbecause the data mover program completes the entire copy operation beforereturning control to the user.

2. If you do not specify this parameter and the target is neither located nor createdwithin the same SVA subsystem and partition as the source, the snap operationterminates.

DEBUG (ON | OFF)Optional

This parameter enables or disables the logging of diagnostic messages. Use it only at therequest of your service representative.

Abbreviation: DEBUG

Values: ON enables generation of diagnostic messages.

OFF disables generation of diagnostic messages.

Default value: OFF

Example: DEBUG(ON)

Note: Some of the information resulting from DEBUG(ON) may be of use only to yourservice representative.

ERRDISP (KEEP | DELETE)Optional

When SnapShot dynamically allocates the target data set, this parameter specifies whetherthe target data set will be kept or deleted when an error occurs.

Abbreviation: None

Values: KEEP specifies that the target data set will be kept if an error occurs.

DELETE specifies that the target data set will be deleted if an erroroccurs.

Default value: DELETE

Example: ERRDISP(KEEP)

ESOTERIC (esotericname)Conditional. You cannot also specify the VOLUME parameter. Use only with theTARGET parameter.

This parameter specifies the device group name of the DASD devices onto which thesource data set is snapped.

Abbreviation: ESO

Values: esotericname specifies the name of the generic locally defined group.

Default value: None.

Example: ESO(DASD)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-175

SNAP DATASET

Notes:

1. Using this parameter has no effect on cataloged, preallocated data sets.2. This parameter is not supported for VSAM targets.3. SnapShot ignores this parameter if you specify OUTDDNAME.4. The ESOTERIC parameter cannot be used for multivolume non-SMS target

data sets.

FORCE (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter allows you to snap a data set that was created as absolute track (ABSTR) oras unmovable (PSU, POU or DAU). SnapShot makes no attempt to ensure that the targetdata set will be accessible. SnapShot does not allocate absolute track locations.

Unless FORCE is enabled, the target for an unmovable or absolute track data set mustreside or be allocated on a different device from that of the source and at the samephysical track location as the source.

Abbreviation: None.

Values: YES specifies that an unmovable or absolute track data set can besnapped to a different physical track location on the same or anotherdevice.

Note: This option is required to snap an unmovable data set. It is notrequired to snap an absolute track data set if the space allocated for thetarget data set is preallocated on a target device at the same physicaltrack location as the source device. SnapShot does not allocate absolutetrack data sets. In this case, the OUTDDNAME parameter must be used.

NO specifies that an unmovable or absolute track data set is not to besnapped unless the target location is identical to the source.

Default value: NO

Example: FORCE(Y)

HOSTCOPYMODE (SHARED | EXCLUSIVE)Optional

This parameter specifies the level of serialization control to be obtained for the source andtarget data sets. See the SVA SnapShot for OS/390 Installation, Customization, andMaintenance guide for a description of serialization.

Abbreviation: HCPYMODE

Values: SHARED specifies the use of dynamic allocations with a disposition ofSHR. Choose this option if you want to modify the source or targetduring a snap operation.

Note: If the target is a VSAM data set, it must be closed beforesnapping. Otherwise the snap will fail and a message will be issued.The target data set must have the ability to get SHARE OPTION 1,1.

EXCLUSIVE specifies use of the dynamic allocations with disposition ofOLD. Exclusive control offers better protection of data integrity thanshared control. Choose this option if you want exclusive control overthe source or target during a snap operation.

Default value: EXCLUSIVE

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-176 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP DATASET

Example: HCPYMODE(SHR)

Notes:

1. SnapShot ignores this parameter for data sets specified by INDDNAME orOUTDDNAME.

2. If you are attempting to snap a data set previously opened within a Data BaseManagement System (DBMS) for which update activity has not been quiesced,you cannot obtain exclusive control because the data base has not been closedor deallocated. In this case, choosing the SHARED option actually providesuser managed exclusive control.

3. Use the HCPYMODE(SHARED) parameter if you know that the data set is sharedby another job; this uses less overhead than the TOLENQF(Y) parameter.

4. If the data set is held DISP=OLD, the allocation fails—even if TOLENQF(Y) isused.

5. If the data set is held DISP=SHR, the allocation success is determined asfollows:

HCPYMODE(EXCLUSIVE) TOLENQF(N) Allocation will fail.HCPYMODE(EXCLUSIVE) TOLENQF(Y) Allocation will succeed with DISP=SHRHCPYMODE(SHARED) TOLENQF(N) Allocation will succeed with DISP=SHRHCPYMODE(SHARED) TOLENQF(Y) Allocation will succeed with DISP=SHR

INDDNAME (ddname)Conditional. You must specify either this parameter or the SOURCE parameter.

This parameter specifies the DD statement that refers to a preallocated source data set to besnapped.

Abbreviation: INDD

Values: ddname identifies the DD statement that refers to the data set to besnapped. You should select a ddname that resolves to a data set and notto a device. DD name concatenation is not supported.

Default value: None.

Example: INDD(DATADDIN)

Note: You must use this parameter if the source data set is not cataloged.

MANAGEMENTCLASS (classname)Optional

When SnapShot dynamically allocates the target data set, this parameter specifies the SMSmanagement class to be assigned to the target data set.

Abbreviation: MGMTCLAS

Values: classname specifies a locally defined management class to be assignedto the target data set.

Note: Contact your storage administrator to determine the validmanagement class names for your site.

Default value: None.

Security: You must have SAF or equivalent authorization for the management classspecified.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-177

SNAP DATASET

Example: MGMTCLAS(SITEMMCL)

Notes:

1. SnapShot ignores this parameter if you specify OUTDDNAME.

2. Local SMS ACS routines may place the target data set in a management classother than that specified by this parameter. As with all SMS data sets,specifying management class is only a suggestion to SMS and may or may notbe accepted by SMS.

3. No attempt is made to update management class information for an existingdata set.

4. SnapShot will not assign the source management class to a target data setautomatically. You must ensure that the correct management class is assignedto the target data set by using the MANAGEMENTCLASS parameter or ACSselection.

OUTDDNAME (ddname)Conditional. You must specify either this parameter or the TARGET parameter.

This parameter specifies the DD statement that refers to a preallocated target data set to besnapped to. You can use this parameter independently of INDDNAME.

When the source and target data sets do not reside on the same SVA subsystem andpartition, you can specify a valid data mover to complete the snap (see theDATAMOVERNAME parameter).

Abbreviation: OUTDD

Values: ddname identifies a DD name that refers to the preallocated target dataset. DD name concatenation is not supported.

Default value: None.

Example: OUTDD(DATADDOUT)

Notes:

1. You cannot snap a data set onto itself. Therefore, the or INDDNAME parametercannot specify the same data set as the OUTDDNAME parameter, unless both:

� The target data set is on another volume than the source, and� You specify DISP=(,KEEP) in the DD statement for the target data set.

2. You must select a ddname that resolves to a data set and not to a device.

3. If this parameter is specified, SnapShot ignores volume preferencing (see“Using Volume Preferencing” on page 5-9).

4. If you use this parameter, SnapShot ignores the CATALOG, DATACLASS,ESOTERIC, HOSTCOPYMODE, MANAGEMENTCLASS, STORAGECLASS,TOLERATEENQFAILURE, VOLUME, and VOLUMECOUNT parameters for the targetdata set.

5. You cannot specify DISP=MOD for the data set named by this parameter.

6. You must use the OUTDDNAME parameter if the target data set is notcataloged.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-178 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP DATASET

RELATE (dsname)Optional

This parameter specifies the name of the base cluster to which the target alternate index isto be related. The base cluster can be an entry-sequenced cluster or a key-sequencedcluster. You cannot relate an alternate index to a reusable cluster, to a relative recordcluster, or to a VVDS (data set name 'SYS1.VVDS.VVOLSER'). An SMS-managed alternateindex has the same management class and storage class as its base cluster.

The dsname specified in this parameter must be cataloged in the same catalog as the targetalternate index.

If this parameter is not specified, and the object of the SnapShot operation is an alternateindex, the target data set will be related to the same base cluster as the source data set.

The UPGRADE/NOUPGRADE attribute of the target alternate index will match the sourcealternate index.

Abbreviation: REL

Values: dsname specifies the name of the data set to which the target alternateindex will relate. The dsname can contain 1 to 44 alphanumeric ornational ($ @ #) characters, and two special (- {) characters, in “nodes”of one to eight characters separated by periods. Do not use a numeric(0-9) or special character (- or {) as the first character of any node.

In the TSO environment, OS/390 will prefix your user ID to your data setname. Enclose the data set name in quotes to prevent prefixing.

Default value: None.

Security: You must have SAF ALTER or equivalent authorization for the data setspecified in the RELATE parameter.

Example: RELATE(SPSL1.BASE.CLUSTER)

REPLACE (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter specifies whether the source data set is to overwrite any data in an existingtarget data set. If the target data set is allocated OLD or SHR, and you do not specify YESfor this parameter, the snap operation terminates.

When the source data set is larger than the allocated space of the target data set, SnapShotattempts to obtain sufficient additional target extents needed to hold the source data, basedon the source allocation.

Abbreviation: REPL

Values: YES specifies that the existing target data set is to be overwritten.

NO specifies that the existing target data set is not to be overwritten.

Default value: NO

Example: REPL(Y)

Note: Use this parameter with caution because some data sets may appear to be emptywhen they actually contain data.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-179

SNAP DATASET

SOURCE (dsname)Conditional. You must specify either this parameter or the INDDNAME parameter.

This parameter specifies the name of the data set to be snapped. To use SnapShot, boththe source and target data sets must resolve to compatible devices within the same SVAsubsystem and partition. All extents for the source data set must reside on devices that arecurrently online and accessible.

The data set is located by using the standard catalog search sequence. Use the INDDNAMEparameter if the data set is not cataloged. The source data set name must be different fromthe target dataset name.

For a list of the types of data sets that you can snap and a list of data sets that are notsupported by SnapShot, see page 5-4.

Abbreviation: SOU

Values: dsname is the name of the source data set: 1 to 44 alphanumeric ornational ($ @ #) characters, and 2 special (- {) characters, in “nodes” ofone to eight characters separated by periods. Do not use a numeric (0-9)or special character (- or {) as the first character of any node.

Notes:

1. Lists, ranges, and wildcards are not allowed.

2. PAV Alias devices cannot be used as the source of a snap.

In the TSO environment, OS/390 will prefix your user ID to your data setname. Enclose the data set name in quotes to prevent prefixing.

Security: You must have SAF READ or equivalent authorization for the source dataset.

Example: SOURCE(PAYROLL.EMPLOYEE.MASTER) identifies the source by standarddata set name.

STORAGECLASS (classname)Conditional. Use only with the TARGET parameter.

This parameter requests an SMS storage class for a newly allocated target data set.

Abbreviation: STORCLAS

Values: classname specifies the locally defined list of storage attributes requiredfor the target data set.

Note: Contact your storage administrator to determine the valid storageclass names for your site.

Default value: None.

Security: You must have SAF or equivalent authorization for the storage classrequested.

Example: STORCLAS(SITESSCL)

Notes:

1. SnapShot will not assign the source storage class to a target data setautomatically. You must ensure that the correct storage class is assigned tothe target data set by using the STORAGECLASS parameter or ACS selection.

2. SnapShot attempts to preference devices on the same SVA subsystem thatcontains the source device (see “Using Volume Preferencing” on page 5-9 for

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-180 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP DATASET

more information). If all source and target devices are not on the same SVAsubsystem and partition, SnapShot either uses a data mover to accomplish thecopy (if DATAMOVERNAME(DSS) is specified) or terminates the snap operation.

3. Local SMS ACS routines may place the target data set in a storage class otherthan that specified by this parameter. As with all SMS data sets, specifyingstorage class is only a suggestion to SMS and may or may not be accepted bySMS.

4. SnapShot ignores this parameter if you specify OUTDDNAME.

TARGET (dsname)Conditional. You must specify either this parameter or the OUTDDNAME parameter.

This parameter specifies the name of the target data set. To use SnapShot, both the sourceand target data sets must be on the same SVA subsystem and partition. All extents for thetarget data set must reside on devices that are currently online and accessible. If volumepreferencing is active, and if you are creating the target or obtaining secondary extents,SnapShot preferences SVA target volumes and volumes within the same SVA subsystem asthe source.

When the source and target data sets do not reside on the same SVA subsystem andpartition, you can specify a valid data mover to complete the snap (see theDATAMOVERNAME parameter).

For new non-VSAM target allocations, SnapShot copies the LSTAR, TRBAL, BLKSIZE,DSORG, RECFM, LRECL, RKP and KEYLEN attributes from the source data set to the targetdata set. For non-VSAM preallocated target data sets where the above DCB attributes donot match the source data set, SnapShot copies the LSTAR, TRBAL, BLKSIZE, RECFM,LRECL, RKP and KEYLEN attributes from the source data set to the target data set. TheDSORG of the target data set must match that of the source data set or the snap will fail.

Abbreviation: TRG

Values: dsname is the name of the target data set: 1 to 44 alphanumeric ornational ($ @ #) characters, and 2 special (- {) characters, in “nodes” ofone to eight characters separated by periods. Do not use a numeric (0-9)or special character (- or {) as the first character of any node.

Note: Lists, ranges, and wildcards are not allowed.

In the TSO environment, OS/390 will prefix your user ID to your data setname. Enclose the data set name in quotes to prevent prefixing.

Security: You must have SAF CREATE and UPDATE or equivalent authorizationfor the target data set. SnapShot opens the data set for output to makesure the requestor has access to the target.

Example: TARGET(PAYROLL.EMPLOYEE.SNAP) identifies the target by standard dataset name.

Notes:

1. You cannot snap a data set onto itself. Therefore, the INDDNAME parametercannot specify the same data set as the OUTDDNAME parameter unless both:

� The target data set is on a different volume from the source, and� You specify CATALOG(NO) for a new non-SMS target data set.

2. You cannot specify the same data set name on both the SOURCE and TARGETparameters. Use the INDDNAME/OUTDDNAME parameters to snap an identicallynamed uncataloged data set to another volume.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-181

SNAP DATASET

3. PAV Alias devices cannot be used as the target of a snap.

TOLERATEENQFAILURE (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter enables you to snap data sets when exclusive serialization control overthem cannot be obtained. Integrity of the data set cannot be assured. If you also specifyHOSTCOPYMODE(EXCL), you must use this parameter to snap a data set that is unavailableat the exclusive serialization level. (The SVA SnapShot for OS/390 Installation,Customization, and Maintenance guide discusses resource serialization.)

Abbreviation: TOLENQF

Values: YES enables the snapping of a data set that is unavailable at the exclusiveserialization level.

NO specifies that the data set is not to be snapped if it is unavailable atthe exclusive serialization level.

Default value: NO

Example: TOLENQF(Y)

Notes:

1. SnapShot ignores this parameter for source data sets accessed via theINDDNAME parameter and for target data sets accessed via the OUTDDNAMEparameter.

2. SnapShot cannot allocate a source or target data set that is already held asOLD.

TOLERATETRUNCATION (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter allows a data set to be truncated and a warning message to be issued if thetarget extent size is smaller than the source. Otherwise, if the target cannot be extended,the snap fails. SnapShot truncates the data set only if it cannot allocate more space.Truncation may cause loss of data.

Abbreviation: TOLTRUNC

Values: YES enables the truncation of a data set snapped to a smaller data set.

NO specifies that the data set is not to be truncated if the target is smallerthan the source data set. The snap fails.

Default value: NO

Example: TOLTRUNC(Y)

Notes:

1. This option has no effect on VSAM, PDSE, Striped, or Extended Addressabilitydata sets, as these data sets never allow truncation.

2. If the target data set cannot be allocated as large as the source data set (x37),SnapShot allows the snap operation but truncates the data being snapped tothe size of the target data set.

3. This parameter is active only when the target data set requires more spacethan its primary allocation.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-182 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP DATASET

TRACE (ON | OFF)Optional

This parameter specifies whether GTF TYPE=USR trace records are to be generated by thesubcommand. GTF records can be used to facilitate troubleshooting of SNAP DATASETsubcommand processing.

For the TRACE parameter to be effective, you must start an active trace with GTFTYPE=USR before executing the SNAP DATASET subcommand.

Note: You should use this parameter only at the request of your service representative.

Abbreviation: TRACE

Values: ON enables trace records to be generated.

OFF disables trace records from being generated.

Default value: OFF

Example: TRACE(ON)

VOLUME (volser)Conditional. You cannot also specify the ESOTERIC parameter. Use only with theTARGET parameter.

This parameter specifies the target volume to which the data set is to be snapped.

When the source data set and the target volume do not reside on the same SVA subsystemand partition, you must specify a valid data mover to perform the copy operation.

The snap operation terminates when SnapShot makes a request to obtain an extent and:

� You supply volumes that do not exist.� An allocation cannot be satisfied on the specified volume.� The VOLUME parameter does not resolve to an eligible device (the specified device

has an invalid device type, is offline, or is unknown).

Abbreviation: VOL

Values: volser specifies the volume serial number of a device that is online tothe host attempting the snap.

Default value: None

Examples: VOL(BKUP44)VOL(BKUP44 BKUP45 BKUP46)

Notes:

1. Using this parameter has no effect on preallocated data sets.

2. If this parameter is used in an SMS environment, guaranteed space is requiredor SMS could ignore the request for a target volume.

3. SnapShot ignores this parameter if you specify OUTDDNAME.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-183

SNAP DATASET

VOLUMECOUNT (volumecount)Optional

This parameter specifies the maximum number of volumes on which a new target data setcan be allocated.

Abbreviation: VOLCNT

Values: volumecount specifies the maximum number of volumes on which thetarget data set can be allocated. It must be a decimal number from 1 to255 without quotes.

Default value: None

Example: VOLCNT(4)

Notes:

1. SnapShot ignores this parameter if you specify OUTDDNAME or VOLUME.

2. SnapShot ignores this parameter for striped data sets.

3. For SMS data sets, VOLCNT will translate volumes to candidate volumes.

4. If you omit this parameter, SnapShot attempts to use the same number ofvolumes for the target as are used for the source.

Examples of SNAP DATASET Example 1.

SNAP DATASET ( SOURCE ('PROD.R1.DATA') -TARGET ( PROD.R1.DATA.SNAP ) )

This example snaps a data set, not allowing a data mover to be used (because no datamover is specified):

Example 2.

SNAP DATASET (INDDNAME (MASTER) OUTDDNAME (SNAP) REPLACE (YES))

This example snaps a data set, specified by the DD name MASTER to an existing data set,specified by the DD name SNAP, overwriting any data that may already be in the target dataset.

Example 3.

SNAP DATASET ( SOURCE (PROJECT1.OUTPUT.FILE) -TARGET (SNAP.PROJECT1) STORCLAS (PROJ1) -

TOLENQF (YES))

This example snaps a data set, to a target to be allocated using the storageclass PROJ1.The snap is to proceed even if exclusive serialization is not obtained for the source.

Example 4.

SNAP DATASET ( SOURCE ('DATA.SVA#1.FILE') -TARGET (BACKUP.SVA#1.FILE) VOLUME(PACK�1) -

HCPYMODE(SHR))

This example snaps a data set, that is being shared by another job to a target that will beallocated on volume PACK�1.

SNAP VOLUME

SNAP VOLUME Subcommand

* Subcommand of SIBBATCH or SIBADMIN

This subcommand duplicates a single volume to another volume. You can snap onlybetween volumes of the same device type and model.

For data integrity reasons, target volumes shared in a multi-host environment should beoffline to all hosts except the host executing the snap operation.

Notes:

1. Volumes that are offline may be snapped if SNAP VOLUME's OFFLINEparameter has been specified. The offline devices must have a path availableand have been mapped in the SVAA device mapping tables (during subsysteminitialization or reinit).

2. You can snap a SCSI volume to an OS/390 3390 volume if the SCSI volume hasbeen initialized with a device number or volser. (This is done with the INITparameter of the DEFINE DEVICE subcommand or with the INITIALIZE DEVICEsubcommand.) However, you cannot snap an OS/390 volume to a SCSI volume.

3. PAV Alias devices can not be used as the source or target of a volume snap.

4. VM CPVOLUMEs can be used as the target of a volume snap if theRELOCATE=NO parameter is specified.

5. If you are requesting PPRC Remote SnapShot, some of the SNAP VOLUMEparameters are invalid and others are ignored. Refer to the SNAP VOLUMEparameter descriptions for more information.

CAUTION:Power PPRC Bridge devices are not intended for use as data storage devices.You should not attempt to ICKDSF initialize and/or vary any Bridge deviceonline to a host operating system, since all user and system data (forexample, VTOCs) can be destroyed during the establishment of a Power PPRCBridge pair. Therefore, you should not attempt to use SnapShot to snap datato or from Power PPRC Bridge devices.

Note: It is recommended that the volume status be set to DISNEW on all systems forSMS-managed target volumes before the SNAP VOLUME subcommand is issued.

ParametersThe parameters of the SNAP VOLUME subcommand follow in alphabetical order.

CONDITIONVOLUME (ALL | LABEL)Conditional. If you use this parameter, you must also use the COPYVOLID parameter.

Specifies, when using the COPYVOLID(N) parameter during a SNAP VOLUME operation,whether the entire target volume is to be conditioned or only its label. Conditioning onlythe label allows the target volume to remain online while the VTOC and VVDS retain theidentity of the source volume.

If the COPYVOLID parameter is not used, or if COPYVOLID(Y) is used, this parameter isignored.

Note: If PPRC Remote SnapShot is requested, this parameter is ignored.

Abbreviation: CONDVOL

Values: ALL specifies that COPYVOLID(N) is to function normally. See“COPYVOLID (YES | NO)” (below) for details.

LaBeL specifies that the target volume label will be updated with thetarget volser. The target UCB will also be updated with the target volser.The VVDS, VTOC, and VTOC index will be the same as the originalsource volume. The target volume will remain ONLINE.

Default value: ALL

Example: CONDVOL(LBL)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-186 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP VOLUME

COPYVOLID (YES | NO)Optional

Specifies whether, during a SNAP VOLUME operation, SnapShot is to retain the source ortarget volume identity.

Note: If PPRC Remote SnapShot is requested, COPYVOLID(NO) results in an errormessage.

Abbreviation: COPYV

Values: Yes specifies that the volser of the source volume is to be retained in thesnap and the target volume is to be made unavailable to the host (that is,SnapShot issues an OS/390 VARY OFFLINE command against the targetvolume).

Note: If a SNAP VOLUME with COPYVOLID(Y) takes place in a JES3environment, the target volume must be manually varied offline to JES3after the SNAP VOLUME completes.

NO specifies that the original volser of the target volume is to be retainedand the target volume is to be made available to the host (that is,SnapShot issues a VARY ONLINE command against the target volume).

Default value: YES

Example: COPYV(Y)

Note: When you specify COPYV(N), the following additional changes are made aftersuccessful completion of the SNAP VOLUME subcommand:

1. If a VTOC index and VVDS are present and active on the target volume, SnapShotupdates any records for the VTOC index and VVDS files to reflect the new names ofthese files. VTOC index names have the form 'SYS1.VTOCIX.volser' and VVDSnames have the form 'SYS1.VVDS.Vvolser'. The volser portion of these names isthe same as the volser of the target volume.

If the volser begins with a numeric character, the default name for the VTOC index is'SYS1.VTOCIX.Vnnnnn', where nnnnn is the last five characters of the volser of thetarget volume.

2. SnapShot updates the VTOC records for the VTOC index and VVDS, if present, toreflect the new names for these files, with the same naming conventions as for theVTOC index updates.

DATAMOVERNAME (NONE | ADRDSSU | DFDSS | DSS)Optional

This parameter specifies a data mover to physically copy the volume (using the DFSMSdssutility with all the defaults) when SnapShot cannot snap the volume.

SnapShot requires a data mover when the source and target volumes do not reside in thesame SVA subsystem and partition.

The DFSMSdss utility control statement for a volume is:

COPY FULL ALLDATA(�) ALLEXCP COPYVOLID CANCELERROR PURGE OPTIMIZE(4)

SnapShot dynamically invokes the data mover and supplies the appropriate commands toaccomplish the copy operation. A message notifies you that a data mover is beinginvoked. If SnapShot is unable to access the data mover, the copy operation terminates.

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-187

SNAP VOLUME

If you do not specify the DATAMOVERNAME parameter and the target is not located in thesame subsystem and partition as the source, the SnapShot operation terminates. If youspecify this parameter but SnapShot can be used, SnapShot ignores the data mover request.

Notes:

1. The time required to copy numerous tracks using a data mover can besignificant because the data mover program takes considerably longer than asnap.

2. If PPRC Remote SnapShot is requested, only DATAMOVERNAME(NONE) isvalid. Other parameter options result in an error message.

Abbreviation: DMNM

Values: NONE specifies that a data mover is not to be used.

ADRDSSU, DFDSS, or DSS specifies the name of the data mover to beused (all refer to the DFSMSdss utility program).

Default value: NONE

Example: DMNM(ADRDSSU)

DEBUG (ON | OFF)Optional

This parameter enables or disables the logging of diagnostic messages. Use it only at therequest of your service representative.

Abbreviation: DEBUG

Values: ON enables diagnostic messages to be generated.

OFF disables diagnostic messages from being generated.

Default value: OFF

Example: DEBUG(ON)

Note: The information resulting from specifying DEBUG(ON) may be of use only to yourservice representative.

INDDNAME (ddname)Conditional. You must specify either this parameter or the SOURCE parameter.

This parameter specifies a preallocated volume to be snapped. You can use this parameterindependently of the OUTDDNAME parameter.

Abbreviation: INDD

Values: ddname identifies the DD name that refers to the device to be snapped.You should select a ddname that resolves to a device. DD nameconcatenation is not supported.

Default value: None.

Example: INDD(DVCDDIN)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-188 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP VOLUME

Notes:

1. If you use this parameter, the TOLERATEENQFAILURE parameter is ignored forthe source volume.

2. You cannot snap a volume onto itself. Therefore, the INDDNAME or SOURCEparameter cannot specify the same volume or unit as the OUTDDNAME orTARGET parameters.

OFFLINE (Yes | No)Optional

This parameter specifies whether a snap operation is allowed if a volume is offline. Ifspecified, this parameter must be used along with the UNIT parameter.

If you specify YES with this parameter, the volume is not REQUIRED to be offline; that is,the snap operation will not fail if the volume happens to be online. However, a path to theunit must be online.

If the target volume is offline, COPYVOLID(YES) and REPLACE(YES) must also beused; these parameters confirm that the contents of the target volume can be overlaid.

Abbreviation: OFF

Values: YES specifies that, if the associated unit is offline, the snap operation cancontinue.

NO specifies that the associated unit must be online for the snap tocontine.

Default value: NO

Security: You must have SAF READ or equivalent authorization for the sourcevolume.

You must have SAF UPDATE or equivalent authorization for the targetvolume.

Example: OFF(Y)

Note: PAV Alias devices can not be used as the target of a volume snap.

OUTDDNAME (ddname)Conditional. You must specify either this parameter or the TARGET parameter.

This parameter specifies a preallocated target volume. You can use this parameterindependently of the INDDNAME parameter.

When the source and target volumes do not reside on the same SVA subsystem andpartition, you can specify a valid data mover to complete the copy.

Abbreviation: OUTDD

Values: ddname identifies the DD name that refers to the target volume. Youshould select a ddname that resolves to a device and you must alsospecify REPLACE(Y) if the volume has user data on it. DD nameconcatenation is not supported.

Default value: None.

Example: OUTDD(DVCDDOUT)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-189

SNAP VOLUME

Notes:

1. If you use this parameter, the TOLERATEENQFAILURE parameter is ignored forthe target volume.

2. You cannot snap a volume onto itself. Therefore, the INDDNAME or SOURCEparameter cannot specify the same volume or unit as the OUTDDNAME orTARGET parameters.

RELOCATE (Yes | No)Optional.

This parameter specifies whether the count fields are to relocated to real cylinder 0 of thevolume.

Abbreviation: RELOC

Values: YES specifies that, on the target volume, the SVA is to create count fieldsthat match the real cylinder location. Yes is valid when the target deviceis defined to begin on real cylinder 0 (such as an OS/390-formattedvolume).

NO specifies that the SVA is to use the source volume's count fields forthe target's count fields (such as a VM CP-formatted volume).

Default value: YES

Example: RELOC(N)

REMOTEFUNCTIONALDEVICEID(fdid)Conditional.

This parameter requests a PPRC Remote SnapShot and identifies the target functionaldevice ID on the remote SVA subsystem. It is used in conjunction with SERIALNUMBERand precludes specifying either VOLUME or UNIT parameters.

Abbreviation: RFDID

Values: fdid specifies a target functional device identifier on the remote SVAsubsystem. fdid requirements:

� offline to all hosts, i.e., no path groups established

� device type must match the PPRC secondary device

� must be write-enabled (CKD R/W) and CKD enabled

� cannot be a PAV Alias device

� cannot be a PPRC bridge volume, secondary device, or primarydevice

Lists, ranges, and wildcards are not allowed.

Default value: None.

Example: RFDID(3FE)

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-190 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP VOLUME

REPLACE (Yes | No)Optional

This parameter specifies whether the snap operation is to overwrite data on an existingtarget volume.

If the target volume contains user data and you do not specify YES for this parameter, thesnap operation terminates. A volume with no user data is defined as one with only aVTOC, a VTOC index, and a VVDS.

If you specify YES for this parameter and the target volume is not empty, old data on thatvolume is overwritten. Catalog entries for any data sets existing on the target volume maybecome invalid.

Note: If PPRC Remote SnapShot is requested, REPLACE(YES) is required andREPLACE(NO) results in an error message.

Abbreviation: REPL

Values: YES specifies that an existing target volume with user data is to beoverwritten.

NO specifies that an existing target volume with user data is not to beoverwritten.

Default value: NO

Example: REPL(Y)

Notes:

1. User data is any data other than the volume label, VTOC, VTOC index, andVVDS. An empty device is one that does not contain any other format-1 DSCBs.

2. Using REPLACE(Y) speeds up the snap operation by not querying the VTOC foruser data set names.

SERIALNUMBER(fraserno)Conditional.

This parameter requests a PPRC Remote SnapShot and identifies the frame serial numberof the remote SVA subsystem. It is used in conjunction withREMOTEFUNCTIONALDEVICEID and precludes specifying either VOLUME or UNITparameters.

SNAP VOLUME

SOURCE (VOLUME(volser) | UNIT(device))Conditional. You must specify either this parameter or the INDDNAME parameter.

This parameter defines the source volume to be snapped. You can specify either theVOLUME parameter or the UNIT parameter—not both.

Abbreviation: SOU

Values: See the UNIT and VOLUME parameters.

Default value: None.

Notes:

1. You cannot snap a volume onto itself. Therefore, the INDDNAME or SOURCEparameter cannot specify the same volume or unit as the OUTDDNAME orTARGET parameters.

2. In no case can PAV Alias devices be used as the source of a volume snap.

TARGET (VOLUME(volser) | UNIT(device)REMOTEFUNCTIONALDEVICEID(fdid) SERIALNUMBER(fraserno))

Conditional. You must specify either this parameter or the OUTDDNAME parameter.

This parameter defines the volume onto which the selected source volume is to be snapped.You can specify the VOLUME parameter, or the UNIT parameter. or the PPRC RemoteSnapShot parameters REMOTEFUNCTIONALDEVICEID and SERIALNUMBER.

Abbreviation: TRG

Values: See the UNIT, VOLUME , REMOTEFUNCTIONALDEVICEID, andSERIALNUMBER parameters.

Default value: None.

Notes:

1. You cannot snap a volume onto itself. Therefore, the INDDNAME or SOURCEparameter cannot specify the same volume or unit as the OUTDDNAME orTARGET parameters.

2. In no case can PAV Alias devices be used as the target of a volume snap.

3. If PPRC Remote SnapShot is requested, bothREMOTEFUNCTIONALDEVICEID and SERIALNUMBER parameters must bespecified.

TOLERATEENQFAILURE (YES | NO)Optional

This parameter enables you to snap a volume when exclusive serialization control cannotbe obtained. However, SnapShot cannot allocate a target volume that is already held asOLD. Integrity of the volume cannot be assured. You must use this parameter to snap avolume that is unavailable at the requested serialization level.

This parameter also is used for snapping a volume that must remain allocated during thesnap operation. An example is a volume in use by a Data Base Management System(DBMS).

Abbreviation: TOLENQF

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N8-192 SVAA Configuration and Administration

SNAP VOLUME

Values: YES enables the snapping of a volume that is unavailable at the exclusiveserialization level.

NO specifies that the volume is not to be snapped if it is unavailable atthe requested serialization level.

Default value: NO

Example: TOLENQF(Y)

Notes:

1. Refer to the SVA SnapShot for OS/390 Installation, Customization, andMaintenance guide for a description of serialization control requests.

2. This parameter is ignored for source volumes specified with the INDDNAMEparameter and target volumes specified with the OUTDDNAME parameter.

TRACE (ON | OFF)Optional

This parameter specifies whether GTF TYPE=USR trace records are to be generated by thesubcommand. GTF records can be used to facilitate troubleshooting of SNAP VOLUMEsubcommand processing.

For the TRACE parameter to be effective, you must start an active trace with GTFTYPE=USR before executing the SNAP VOLUME subcommand.

Note: You should use this parameter only at the request of your service representative.

Abbreviation: TRACE

Values: ON enables trace records to be generated.

OFF disables trace records from being generated.

Default value: OFF

Example: TRACE(ON)

UNIT (device)Conditional. You cannot use both the UNIT parameter and the VOLUME parameter witheither the SOURCE or TARGET parameter. The TARGET parameter also precludesspecifying the PPRC Remote SnapShot parameters.

This parameter identifies the source or target volume by unit address, as known to the hostoperating system. You can specify only one of the UNIT or VOLUME parameters witheach of the SOURCE and TARGET parameters. However, you can use this parameter evenif you have specified VOLUME in the corresponding SOURCE or TARGET parameter.

Abbreviation: UNIT

Values: device specifies the unit address of the source or target volume of thesnap. The volume must be online to the host attempting the snapoperation unless the OFFLINE parameter has been specified.

You can specify hexadecimal digits. Decimal representation, lists,ranges, and wildcards are not accepted.

Default value: None.

Examples: UNIT(14BE)UNIT(X'2�F')

November, 2006 — PN 311290512, Rev. N Subcommands and Commands 8-193

SNAP VOLUME

VOLUME (volser)Conditional. You cannot use both the UNIT parameter and the VOLUME parameter witheither the SOURCE or TARGET parameter. The TARGET parameter also precludesspecifying the PPRC Remote SnapShot parameters.

This parameter identifies the source or target volume by volume serial number. You canspecify only one of the VOLUME or UNIT parameters with each of the SOURCE andTARGET parameters. However, you can use this parameter even if you have specifiedUNIT in the corresponding SOURCE or TARGET parameter.

When a device contains multivolume data sets, you must snap each volume individually(note that serialization is not maintained across volumes).

Abbreviation: VOL

Values: volser specifies the volume serial number of the source or targetvolume for the snap. The volume must be online to the host attemptingthe snap operation.

Lists, ranges, and wildcards are not allowed.

Default value: None.

Examples: VOL(BKUP44)VOL(TEST�1)

Examples of SNAP VOLUME Example 1.

SNAP VOLUME ( -SOURCE (VOL (PROD��) ) -TARGET (UNIT (X'�FDC') ) )

This subcommand snaps a volume without using JCL DD statements.

Example 2.

SNAP VOLUME ( -SOURCE (VOL (TESTXX) ) -

OUTDD(ICETARG))

This subcommand snaps a volume using a JCL DD statement for the target device

Example 3.

SNAP VOLUME ( -SOURCE (VOL (SRC��1) ) -TARGET(RFDID(7DF) SN(��7�25) ) -

REPLACE(YES))

This subcommand performs a PPRC Remote SnapShot. The Source volume (SRC001) is aPPRC Primary volume in a PPRC pair. The associated PPRC Secondary volume is notexplicitly referred to in the subcommand, but the Secondary volume is implied to bedefined on the SVA subsystem with serial number 7025. Functional device 7DF also existson SVA subsystem #7025. As the result of the PPRC Remote SnapShot, the Secondaryvolume will be snapped to functional device 7DF.

The REPLACE(YES) parameter is required for all PPRC Remote SnapShots and must beexplicitly specified since the default is NO.

Drive Module Status

Appendix A. Drive Module Status

Table A-1 lists and describes the statuses that a drive module can acquire. Statusis indicated by a two-character code: the first character identifies the partition withwhich the drive is associated; the second character shows the current state of thedrive. Status codes are displayed either as two characters or as two charactersseparated by a period. For example, the status of a drive module associated withthe Production partition in the active state is “PA” or “P.A” .

SMF Record Formats

Appendix B. SMF Record Formats

DDSR (when back-end storage is released) and SnapShot (when a snap isexecuted) optionally produce SMF records. This appendix shows the layout of twoSMF record subtypes:

� Subtype 5: DDSR data� Subtype 8: SnapShot event data

Five other SVAA SMF record subtypes, for reporting data collection, are documentedin SVAA for OS/390 Reporting:

� Subtype 1: Subsystem Performance� Subtype 2: Channel Interface Statistics� Subtype 3: Functional Device Performance� Subtype 4: Drive Module Performance

� Subtype 7: Space Utilization

DDSR Record (Subtype 5)

To activate the production of SMF records for DDSR, specify subtype 5 in theSUBPARM parameter of SMFPRMxx. For details, see the step for “Customizing theSMFPRMxx Member” in the SVAA for OS/390 Installation, Customization, andMaintenance manual.

base functional device ID (BFDID). The functionaldevice identifier that maps to or from the lowest (base)interface address on a given channel.

Ccache. Solid state, random access memory that islocated in a controller. The cache retains frequentlyused data for faster access by the channel. In the SVA,all data access is through cache.

cache fast write (CFW). A form of fast write in which

data is written directly to cache storage without usingnonvolatile storage and is available for later destaging.

Capacity on Demand (COD). A feature that allowsSVA customers to exceed their purchased physicalcapacity (PCAP) limit by up to 860GB of additionaltemporary effective capacity to prevent writes frombeing blocked during temporary and sometimes criticalusage periods.

channel end. The indication from the channel that ithas completed an operation.

channel interface. The Disk Array Controller circuitrythat attaches to the host channels.

cluster. See storage cluster.

collected free space %. The percentage of arraycylinders that are free array cylinders (collected andcompletely free of user data).

compaction. The SVA process that eliminatesinter-record gaps normally associated with CKD DASD.Compaction reduces the amount of wasted disk arrayspace, thus reducing the net capacity load on thesubsystem.

compression. The SVA process that reduces the sizeof data records by translating them to a differentencoding scheme that requires fewer bytes of realstorage.

controller. See Disk Array Controller.

count-key-data (CKD). A recording format that writesvariable-length records. Each record consists of 1) acount field, which specifies the length of the (optional)key field and data field of the record, 2) the (optional)key field, and 3) a data field. The first record on eachtrack contains a fourth field, home address.

current data. User data, stored in a disk array, thathas valid pointers from internal SVA mapping tables.

DDASD fast write (DFW). A form of fast write to cachein which data is written concurrently to cache andnonvolatile storage (NVS) and is subsequentlyscheduled for destaging to the disk arrays. Both copiesare retained in the SVA Disk Array Controller until thedata is completely written to the disk arrays.

Data Bridge. A pair of devices used by Power PPRCto transmit all tracks on all primary devices from the

dedicated connection

primary subsystem to the secondary subsystem. Thesedevices are not used to store customer data.

dedicated connection. In an Enterprise SystemsConnection Director (ESCD), a connection between twoports that is not affected by information contained in linkframes. This connection restricts these ports fromcommunicating with any other port. The two ports havea dedicated connection that appears as one continuouslink.

Deleted Data Space Release (DDSR). An SVAAfacility for OS/390 that informs the Disk Array Controllerwhen functional volume data sets are deleted. Thephysical disk array space occupied by the deleted datacan immediately become free space, thereby reducingthe net capacity load on the subsystem.

destage. The nonsynchronous write of new or updateddata from the cache storage or nonvolatile storage tothe Disk Array Units.

device. See (1) drive module and (2) functionaldevice.

device end. An indication from an I/O device that ithas ended an operation.

device reconstruction. The SVA automaticbackground function of recreating and rewriting all ofthe data that was stored on a failed device to a sparedevice using the functional track recovery process.

direct access storage device (DASD). A storagedevice in which the medium is always available to theread/write head without having to be mounted by anexternal agent.

disk array. The SVA's logical grouping of drivemodules. See also: dual-redundancy disk array.

disk array capacity. The formatted physical capacityof a disk array excluding redundancy data.

Disk Array Controller. The SVA control unit thatprovides the interface intelligence between the host(s)and the back-end storage.

Disk Array Unit (DAU). A single physical framecontaining drive modules that comprise the disk arraystorage in an SVA subsystem.

domain. See SCSI domain.

drain. The SVA process that gradually moves datastored on a device or a disk array to other devices.Drain operations allow for the nondisruptivedeinstallation of a device or a Disk Array Unit.

drive module. A disk storage device consisting of theaccess arms and heads, disk surfaces, and the

supporting electronics required to locate, write, and readdata. Each drive module is physically packaged as asingle field-replaceable unit (FRU) within the SVA.

drive reconstruction. See device reconstruction.

dual-redundancy disk array. A disk array that allowsfor real-time automatic recovery of data from up to twofailed devices within the array.

In the 9500 and earlier SVAs, arrays of 7 (5+2) drivemodules can also be formed.

Dynamic Configuration. An SVA feature that allowsthe channel interfaces and up to 4096 functionalvolumes to be defined and/or altered. The functionalconfiguration of an SVA subsystem can be determinedby user requirements rather than available drivemodules.

EECAM device. A functional device over whichSVAA-based communication between the SVA DiskArray Controller and the host CPU(s) takes place.
