Validation fails if any of the following conditions are not satisfied
(except where it is noted that only a warning is issued).
- Base configuration information must exist. If you specify a default
management class, you need to have defined the management class.
- Each possible outcome of the data class, storage class, management
class, and storage group ACS routines must have a corresponding definition
in the SCDS. For example, if you have five unique storage classes
that can be determined by the storage class ACS routine, then you
must have five corresponding storage class definitions in the SCDS.
- All classes and storage groups referenced in all ACS routines
exist (issues a warning only).
- The storage group ACS routine exists.
- At least one VIO, pool, object type storage or tape group exists.
- All pool and dummy storage groups have at least one volume.
- At least one storage class exists.
- All pool and VIO storage groups are possible outcomes of the storage
group ACS routine (issues a warning only).
- No dummy storage group is set by storage group ACS.
- All libraries associated with storage groups must exist in the
configuration.
- Every optical library must have at least one drive associated
with it.
- The DATABASE 2 (DB2®) qualifier
specified for each object or object backup storage group must be unique.
- Object and object backup storage groups can have up to eight real
or pseudo optical libraries, but not both.
- An object or object backup storage group cannot reference a tape
library.
- A tape storage group cannot reference an optical library.
- A tape storage group must have at least one tape library.
- If a default entry data class is specified, the data class must
exist in the configuration.
- All cache sets specified in storage classes must be defined in
the base configuration.
