Example 7

CHPID PATH=(CSS(0),80),TYPE=FC,SHARED,PCHID=1A0
CHPID PATH=(CSS(2),86),TYPE=FCP,SHARED,PCHID=1A1,MIXTYPE
The preceding statements:
  • Defines channel path 80 in CSS 0 for PCHID 1A0
  • Defines channel path 86 in CSS 2 for PCHID 1A1
  • Specifies that the mixture of CHPID types is allowed on this CPC for these two channel paths. The MIXTYPE keyword could be specified on either or both of the CHPID statements. If the CPC does not require the MIXTYPE keyword when mixing FC and FCP channel path types on an adapter, the MIXTYPE keyword is ignored and a warning message results. If the FICON adapter does not support the mixing of CHPID types, one of the channel paths will be in definition error and unusable.
