Print configuration reports

This HCD batch utility function allows you to print reports about:
  • The hardware definitions stored in the specified IODF.
  • The I/O paths of an actual system compared to the definitions in the IODF.
  • The processors, control units, and devices supported in your installation.

This function is invoked by passing the following parameter string.

Type of the report. Specify one or more of the following codes in any order, with no separating characters:
C
CSS report - CSS summary report
P
CSS report - channel path detail report
U
CSS report - control unit detail report
D
CSS report - device detail report
S
Switch report
M
OS report - OS devices
E
OS report - EDTs
N
OS report - NIP/VM consoles
T
CTC report
I
I/O Path report
X
Supported hardware report
Y
I/O definition reference
procid
Processor ID to limit a CSS, CTC connection or I/O Path report to a specific processor. If not specified for an I/O Path report, the ID of the active processor configuration is taken (=default).
partnm
Partition name to limit a CSS, CTC connection or I/O Path report to a specific logical partition. The processor ID must also be specified; otherwise, the partition name is ignored for the CSS and CTC connection report. For the I/O Path report, the partition name is defaulted to a partition that contains a device common to the specified or defaulted OS configuration.
osid
Operating system configuration ID to limit an OS report or an I/O Path report to a specific operating system configuration. If not specified for an I/O Path report, the ID of the active operating system configuration is taken (=default).
swid
Switch identifier to limit a Switch report to a specific switch
system
If the sysplex name is also specified, the system name (1 - 8 alphanumeric characters) identifies the system of a sysplex for that the I/O Path report is to be generated. If the sysplex is not specified, the system name is the VTAM application name of the host for that the I/O Path report is to be generated. The default is the local system.
sysplex
Sysplex name (1 - 8 alphanumeric characters) to specify the sysplex of the system for which the I/O Path report is to be generated. If the I/O path uses zDAC, the sysplex must be the local syplex or left blank.
XML
Specify the XML keyword if you want to print your report in XML output format.
Note: It is recommended to print the I/O Path report separately from the other reports. However, if you want to print an I/O Path report together with any other reports, your limitations for the I/O Path report are propagated to all other specified reports. These limitations to a certain processor, partition or operating system can be either user-specified or HCD takes the active processor, partition or operating system as the default.
