Disconnecting coupling facility channel path connections

Perform the following steps to break a coupling facility channel path connection:

  1. On the Channel Path List select any channel path and the Connect CF channel path action from the context menu (or action code  f ) HCD displays the CF Channel Path Connectivity List showing all CF channel paths defined for a processor.
  2. Select the source channel path for a coupling facility connection and the Disconnect action from the context menu (or action code  n ).
    Note: The appropriate CF control unit definition is removed implicitly with the last broken connection to the coupling facility to which the control unit belongs. The appropriate CF device definitions are removed implicitly, when the coupling facility connection to which they belong is broken.
