Defining CHPIDs

Code the chpid number with the PATH keyword. Code the TYPE keyword as FC. If the connection is by means of a FICON® Director, specify a number on the SWITCH keyword.

The following RESOURCE and CHPID statement example defines shared FC channel chpid 50 in System A:

RESOURCE PARTION=((LP1A,1),(LP2A,2),(LP3A,3))
CHPID PATH=50,TYPE=FC,SHARED,PART=((LP1A,LP2A,LP3A),(=)),SWITCH=01

The following CHPID statement example defines unshared FC channel CHPID 60 in System B:

CHPID PATH=60,TYPE=FC,PART=LP1B,SWITCH=01
