Updating Fast Path routing codes and Fast Path routing code descriptors dynamically

Use the type-2 command UPDATE RTC to dynamically update the definition of a Fast Path routing code. Use the type-2 command UPDATE RTCDESC to update a Fast Path routing code descriptor.

The RTC and RTCDESC parameters of the CREATE command are valid only in DB/DC and DCCTL systems in which Fast Path is installed.

If the Fast Path routing code is in use, the UPDATE RTC command fails if you are modifying either the INQ attribute or the PGM attribute of the definition of a Fast Path routing code.

You cannot update the following attributes of the definition of a Fast Path routing code if DRD is not enabled:

  • INQ
  • PGM

If you use the UPDATE RTC command to change either the INQ attribute or the PGM attribute in the definition of a Fast Path routing code that has a MODBLKS definition type, the definition type of the Fast Path routing code changes to UPDATE, as displayed by the QUERY RTC command.
