IEA494I dev, [volser], PPRC state, SSID=ssid, CCA=ca, [SECSSID=ssid2,] optional-text SENSE=sense
Explanation
- dev
- The device number of the currently online PPRC pair. Typically, this is the primary device of the PPRC, but if a Hyperswap has occurred, it is the former PPRC secondary device. In some rare cases, the IEA494I message is presented on both the primary and secondary PPRC devices.
- volser
- The volume serial number of the primary device of a PPRC pair. Note that when a failure is received by an alias device or an offline device, the volser is not available, so the message text will not have the volser.
- state
- The new state of the PPRC pair is one of the following:
- SUSPENDING
- The control unit is in the process of suspending the PPRC pair. This text appears only when the device is in the extended long busy state, and EXTENDED LONG BUSY STATE will appear at the end of the message.
- SUSPENDED
- The PPRC pair has changed from PENDING or FULL DUPLEX state to SUSPENDED state. If the device in the extended long busy state, the message will have the optional text EXTENDED LONG BUSY STATE appended at the end.
- TERMINATED
- The PPRC pair has terminated from the PENDING, FULL DUPLEX, or SUSPENDED state.
- PAIR PENDING
- A PPRC copy operation is starting. This might be initial or from a previous suspended state.
- PAIR FULL DUPLEX
- A PPRC copy operation has completed and the primary and secondary devices are synchronized.
- PPRC PAIR DUPLEX PENDING FC
- A PPRC pair is DUPLEX PENDING due to a FC which specified a PPRC primary volume as a FLASHCOPY (FC) target.
- PPRC PAIR SUSPENDED FC
- A PPRC pair is SUSPENDED because of a FC that specified a PPRC primary volume as a FLASHCOPY (FC) target and preserve mirror required, and an error was encountered during the request.
- ssid
- The ssid of the primary device of the PPRC pair.
- ca
- The two-byte channel connection address of the primary device of the PPRC pair.
- ssid2
- The ssid of the secondary device of the PPRC pair. This identifies the relationship that has changed. It is shown only if multi-target is supported and enabled.
- optional-text
- Is one or more of the following:
- EXTENDED LONG BUSY STATE.
- CONTINUATION OF IEA494I SNS=senseIn the message text:
- sense
- Sense data.
- sense
- The 32 characters of sense data reported by the device.
xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx
Note: The optional text is present only if the PPRC control unit microcode is at the correct level and the Vital Product Data bit has been set at the control unit panel, requesting activation of extended long busy mode. The duration of this extended long busy is also set at the control unit panel, with a default value of approximately two minutes. Contact your hardware support group if assistance is required to set the bit and duration.
This message is broadcast to all subsystems where the device is attached and online. Some systems may receive more than one variation of the SUSPENDED state message during a suspending event.
System action
If no action is taken by the operator or automation program , at the end of the EXTENDED LONG BUSY period, processing will continue in suspended duplex state
Note: See message IEA491E (IEA491E) for additional information related to this message. Message IEA494I is detected and issued by only one of the systems where the device is attached.
Operator response
This message is intended for use by automation programs that monitor operator messages. Actions can be attempted by the operator, but an automation program is recommended.
