Moving unshared channel paths from a z/OS system

  1. Select the LP that owns the channel path to display channel path information for the LP.
  2. Move the channel path from the z/OS® console.
    1. Enter CF CHP(nn),OFFLINE, where nn is the number of the desired channel path, from the z/OS operator console that has the reconfigurable channel path online.
    2. Enter CF CHP(nn),ONLINE, where nn is the number of the desired channel path, from the z/OS operator console that is the target LP.
      Notes:
      1. If a channel path is configured offline while the LP is isolated and remains offline when you change the LP’s isolation status from enabled to disabled, the channel path must be configured offline again. See Releasing reconfigurable channel paths.
      2. If the channel path you want to move is currently assigned to a deactivated LP, you must configure it offline from the hardware console.
      3. If the LP is not running a system control program that supports channel path configuration commands, you can move the channel path from the hardware console.
