Coupling facility LP activation considerations

At LP activation, coupling facility control code automatically loads into the coupling facility LP from Support Element hard disk. No initial program load (IPL) of an operating system is necessary or supported in the coupling facility LP.

All coupling facility channel path types targeted to be brought online are automatically configured online.

Note: All channel paths types that are targeted to be brought online will automatically be configured online if the coupling facility LP is redefined as a General mode LP.
