System status values

This topic describes the system status values.

The status values are as follows.

BEING REMOVED
XCF is removing the system from the sysplex. This can mean that:
  • A VARY XCF command was entered to remove the system from the sysplex.
  • The system lost signalling connectivity to the other systems in the sysplex.
  • The system lost access to the common clock being used by the sysplex.
msysname is the system name of the system that is monitoring the removal of system msysnamefrom the sysplex. If the monitoring system cannot be determined, msysname appears as N/A
MONITOR-DETECTED STOP
The system has not updated its status on the couple data set within the time interval specified on that COUPLExx parmlib member of the system. This can mean that:
  • The system is issuing an SVC dump.
  • The system is going through reconfiguration.
  • A spin loop is occurring.
  • The operator pressed stop.
  • The system is in a restartable wait state.
  • The system lost access to the couple data set.
XCF-LOCAL MODE
The system is running in XCF-local mode. No other systems can join a sysplex in XCF-local mode. The sysplex is not using couple data sets.
XCF-LOCAL MODE TM=SIMETR
The system is running in XCF-local mode. No other systems can join a sysplex in XCF-local mode. The sysplex is not using couple data sets. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by simulated ETR.
XCF-LOCAL MODE TM=ETR
The system is running in XCF-local mode. No other systems can join a sysplex in XCF-local mode. The sysplex is not using couple data sets. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by stepping to the ETR Sysplex Timer.
XCF-LOCAL MODE TM=STP
The system is running in XCF-local mode. No other systems can join a sysplex in XCF-local mode. The sysplex is not using couple data sets. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by steering to the ETR Sysplex Timer or to the STP Facility.
XCF-LOCAL MODE TM=LOCAL
The system is running in XCF-local mode. No other systems can join a sysplex in XCF-local mode. The sysplex is not using couple data sets. The TOD clock of this system is not synchronized to any external time source.
MONOPLEX MODE
The system is running in monoplex mode which prevents any other systems from joining this sysplex. The sysplex is using couple data sets.
MONOPLEX MODE TM=SIMETR
The system is running in monoplex mode which prevents any other systems from joining this sysplex. The sysplex is using couple data sets. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by simulated ETR.
MONOPLEX MODE TM=ETR
The system is running in monoplex mode which prevents any other systems from joining this sysplex. The sysplex is using couple data sets. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by stepping to the ETR Sysplex Timer.
MONOPLEX MODE TM=STP
The system is running in monoplex mode which prevents any other systems from joining this sysplex. The sysplex is using couple data sets. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by steering to the ETR Sysplex Timer or to the STP Facility.
MONOPLEX MODE TM=LOCAL
The system is running in monoplex mode which prevents any other systems from joining this sysplex. The sysplex is using couple data sets. The TOD clock of this system is not synchronized to any external time source.
PARTITIONING CLEANUP
XCF is in the process of removing a system from the sysplex.
ACTIVE
The system is running and has updated its status on the couple data set within the last time interval as defined in the system's COUPLExx parmlib member.
ACTIVE TM=ETR
The system is running and has updated its status on the couple data set within the last time interval as defined in the system's COUPLExx parmlib member. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by stepping to the ETR Sysplex Timer.
ACTIVE TM=SIMETR
The system is running and has updated its status on the couple data set within the last time interval as defined in the system's COUPLExx parmlib member. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by simulated ETR.
ACTIVE TM=STP
The system is running and has updated its status on the couple data set within the last time interval as defined in the system's COUPLExx parmlib member. The TOD clock of this system is synchronized by steering to the ETR Sysplex Timer or to the STP Facility.
ACTIVE TM=LOCAL
The system is running and has updated its status on the couple data set within the last time interval as defined in the system's COUPLExx parmlib member. The TOD clock of this systemk is not synchronized to any external time source.
