DETAIL
Displays the general dynamic VIPA configuration information, along with the following information:
  • The OPTLOCAL value.
  • If the distribution method is WeightedActive, displays the configured active connection weight.
  • If the distribution method is BASEWLM, displays the PROCTYPE parameters.
  • If the distribution method is SERVERWLM, diplays the PROCXCOST and ILWEIGHTING parameters.

Target

Provide the report for a specific TCP/IP address space by using TCp tcpname. See The Netstat command target for more information about the TCp parameter.

Output

The default output option displays the output on the user's terminal. For other options, see The TSO NETSTAT command syntax or Netstat command output.

Filter description

IPAddr/-I ipaddrIPAddr/-I ipaddr/prefixlengthIPAddr/-I ipaddr/subnetmask
Filter the report output using the specified IP address ipaddr, ipaddr/prefixlength, or ipaddr/subnetmask. You can enter up to six filter values. Each specified IPv4 ipaddr value can be up to 15 characters in length and each selected IPv6 ipaddr value can be up to 45 characters in length.
ipaddr
Filter the output of the VIPADCFG/-F report using the specified IP address ipaddr. For IPv4 addresses, the default subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 is used. For IPv6 addresses, the default prefixlength of 128 is used.
ipaddr/prefixlength
Filter the output of the VIPADCFG/-F report using the specified IP address and prefix length ipaddr/prefixlength. For an IPv4 address, the prefix length range is 1 – 32. For an IPv6 address, the prefix length range is 1 – 128.
ipaddr/subnetmask
Filter the output of the VIPADCFG/-F report using the specified IP address and subnet mask ipaddr/subnetmask. The IP address ipaddr in this format must be an IPv4 IP address.
Guidelines:
  1. The filter value ipaddr can be a dynamic VIPA address, a destination IP address, or a destination XCF IP address.
  2. For an IPv6-enabled stack the following apply:
    • Both IPv4 and IPv6 ipaddr values are accepted and can be mixed on the IPAddr/-I option.
    • An IPv4-mapped IPv6 address is accepted as a valid ipaddr value and usually provides the same result as its IPv4 address.
Restrictions:
  1. The IPAddr/-I option for the VIPADCFG/-F report does not support wildcard characters.
  2. For an IPv4-only stack, only IPv4 ipaddr values are accepted.

Command syntax examples

From TSO environment

NETSTAT VIPADCFG
   Display the dynamic VIPA configuration for the default TCP/IP stack. 
NETSTAT VIPADCFG TCP TCPCS6
   Display the dynamic VIPA configuration for the TCPCS6 stack.

From UNIX shell environment

   netstat -F
   netstat -F -p tcpcs6 

Report examples

The following examples are generated by using TSO NETSTAT command. Using the z/OS UNIX netstat command displays the data in the same format as the TSO NETSTAT command.

If the TCP/IP stack is not currently in the sysplex group, two messages will preceed the report, one indicating that the TCP/IP stack is not a member of the sysplex group and the other indicating that all dynamic VIPA configuration for the TCP/IP stack is currently inactive. See z/OS Communications Server: IP Messages Volume 4 (EZZ, SNM), messages EZZ2502I and EZZ2503I respectively, for detailed information about these messages.

If the stack is delaying sysplex profile processing because VTAM® or OMPROUTE is not initialized, VIPADYNAMIC configuration information is not available and message EZZ2505I precedes the report heading. See z/OS Communications Server: IP Messages Volume 4 (EZZ, SNM) for more information.

Report field descriptions

Displays the following dynamic VIPA information defined in the VIPADYNAMIC profile statement. For more information about each field, see the VIPADYNAMIC profile statements in the z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference.

VIPA Backup
Displays the following configured dynamic VIPA backup information:

For a SHORT format report:

IP Address
The IP address for this DVIPA.
AddressMask
The net mask that determines how many of the bits of the IP address determine the net. This field is blank if Moveable and AddressMask were not specified on the VIPABACKUP statement or if another stack initially activated the DVIPA.

For a LONG format report:

IntfName
The name of this IPv6 interface. This name will match the interface name defined on the Primary stack that is being backed up.
IpAddr/PrefixLen
The IP address and prefix length for this DVIPA. For an IPv4 address, the prefix length range is 1 - 32. For an IPv6 address, the prefix length range is 1 – 128.

For a SHORT or LONG format report:

Rank
The relative position of this stack in the list of stacks that can activate (takeover) the DVIPA in case of failure. The stack with the highest ranked backup DVIPA will do the takeover.
Moveable
Indicates the conditions under which the active DVIPA can be moved to another stack. This field is blank if Moveable and AddressMask were not specified on the VIPABACKUP statement, or if another stack initially activated the DVIPA.
WhenIdle
Indicates that this DVIPA can be moved to another stack when there are no connections for this DVIPA on the current stack. If there are connections on the current stack at the time another stack issues a VIPADEFINE for the same DVIPA, the DVIPA remains active on this stack until the last connection on this stack ends.
Immediate
Indicates that this DVIPA can be moved to another stack as soon as the other stack requests ownership by executing a VIPADEFINE for the same DVIPA. Existing connections on the current stack are maintained by the new owning stack.
SrvMgr
Indicates whether sysplex distributor performs Multinode Load Balancing (MNLB) by functioning as a Service Manager (in place of Cisco's LocalDirector) for this DVIPA. This field for an IPv4 entry is blank if Moveable and AddressMask were not specified on the VIPABACKUP statement or if another stack initially activated the DVIPA. This field for an IPv6 entry will always display n/a as it is not applicable for IPv6.
Flg
The following values can be displayed in the Flg field:
1
Indicates that this DVIPA is used to distribute incoming requests to z/OS® or non-z/OS targets (for example, DataPower® appliances).
2
Indicates that this DVIPA is used to distribute incoming requests from tier 1 targets to the group of server applications.
C
Indicates that this DVIPA is specific to the central processor complex (CPC) that it is defined on and that it cannot be moved to or taken over by a TCP/IP stack on a different CPC. This DVIPA can serve as a default route from DataPower appliances that are associated with this CPC. When used with the tier 2 flag (see Flg value 2), this value indicates that all of the tier 2 target applications are on TCP/IP stacks on the same CPC.
VIPA Define
Displays the configured dynamic VIPA define information.

For a SHORT format report:

IP Address
The IP address for this DVIPA.
AddressMask
The net mask that determines how many of the bits of the IP address determine the net.

For a LONG format report:

IntfName
The name of this IPv6 interface.
IpAddr/PrefixLen
The IP address and prefix length for this DVIPA. For an IPv4 address, the prefix length range is 1 – 32. For an IPv6 address, the prefix length range is 1 – 128.

For a SHORT or LONG format report:

Moveable
Indicates the conditions under which the DVIPA can be moved to another stack.
WhenIdle
Indicates that this DVIPA can be moved to another stack when there are no connections for this DVIPA on the current stack. If there are connections on the current stack at the time another stack issues a VIPADEFINE for the same DVIPA, the DVIPA remains active on this stack until the last connection on this stack ends.
Immediate
Indicates that this DVIPA can be moved to another stack as soon as the other stack requests ownership by executing a VIPADEFINE for the same DVIPA. Existing connections on the current stack are maintained by the new owning stack.
SrvMgr
Indicates whether sysplex distributor performs Multinode Load Balancing (MNLB) by functioning as a Service Manager (in place of Cisco's LocalDirector) for this DVIPA. This field for an IPv6 entry always displays n/a as it is not applicable for IPv6.
Flg
The following values can be displayed in the Flg field:
1
Indicates that this DVIPA is used to distribute incoming requests to the z/OS targets or non-z/OS targets (for example, DataPower appliances).
2
Indicates that this DVIPA is used to distribute incoming requests from tier 1 targets to the group of server applications.
C
Indicates that this DVIPA is specific to the central processor complex (CPC) that it is defined on and that it cannot be moved to or taken over by a TCP/IP stack on a different CPC. This DVIPA can serve as a default route from DataPower appliances that are associated with this CPC. When used with the tier 2 flag (see Flg value 2), this value indicates that all of the tier 2 target applications are on TCP/IP stacks on the same CPC.
VIPA Range
Displays the configured dynamic VIPA range information.

For a SHORT format report:

AddressMask
The net mask that determines how many bits of the IP address determine the net.
IP Address
An IP address that determines a VIPARANGE net value when ANDed with the specified address mask. DVIPAs that fall within the range can be created by BIND or SIOCSVIPA ioctl.
SAFName
The final qualifier of a System Authorization Facility (SAF) resource name. The maximum length is 8 characters.

For a LONG format report:

IntfName
The name of this IPv6 interface.
IpAddr/PrefixLen
The IP address and prefix length for this DVIPA. For an IPv4 address, the prefix length range is 1 – 32. For an IPv6 address, the prefix length range is 1 – 128.
SAFName
The final qualifier of a System Authorization Facility (SAF) resource name. The maximum length is 8 characters.

For a SHORT or LONG format report:

Moveable
Indicates the conditions under which DVIPAs created within this VIPARANGE can be moved to another stack.
Disrupt
Indicates that nondisruptive movement will not occur for DVIPAs created within this VIPARANGE on this stack. In the case of a BIND-created DVIPA, a subsequent BIND for the same DVIPA will not move the DVIPA and the subsequent BIND will fail. In the case of an ioctl-created DVIPA, a subsequent ioctl request for the same DVIPA moves the DVIPA to the new stack, but connections on that DVIPA on the first stack are broken.
NonDisr
Indicates immediate nondisruptive movement for DVIPAs within this VIPARANGE created on this stack by SIOCSVIPA ioctl (or BIND) when the same DVIPA is requested by subsequent net mask (or subsequent BIND) on another stack. Any existing connections on the original owning stack are maintained by the new owning stack.
VIPA Distribute
Displays the configured dynamic VIPA define information.

For a SHORT format report:

IP Address
The specific IP address for which incoming connections are to be distributed.
Port
The specific port for which incoming connections are to be distributed. A port value of n/a indicates that the PORT parameter was not specified on the VIPADISTRIBUTE profile statement.

Result: If multiple ports were specified individually or in a range on a VIPADISTRIBUTE statement, one entry is displayed for each address and port combination.

XCF Address
The dynamic XCF address (IPCONFIG DYNAMICXCF) of a target stack for incoming connections to the DVIPA and port.

If the Flg field value 1 is displayed and RtgType GRE is displayed when the DETAIL keyword is used, then this field represents the IP address of the tier 1 target for incoming connections to the DVIPA.

Weight
The configured distribution method is WEIGHTEDActive. This is the configured active connection weight that is used when incoming connections are distributed to this target stack.
Flg
Flags including the following values:
1
Indicates that the DVIPA is used to distribute incoming requests to tier 1 targets.
2
Indicates that the DVIPA is used to distribute incoming requests from tier 1 targets to a group of tier 2 server applications.
O
Indicates that the OPTLOCAL keyword was defined on the VIPADISTRIBUTE profile statement. To see the OPTLOCAL value currently in effect, issue the Netstat VIPADCFG/-F command with the DETAIL keyword.

For a LONG format report:

DestIntf
The name of this IPv6 interface.
Dest
The specific IP address and port for which incoming connections are to be distributed. A port value of n/a indicates that the PORT parameter was not specified on the VIPADISTRIBUTE profile statement.

Result: If multiple ports were specified individually or in a range on a VIPADISTRIBUTE statement, one entry is displayed for each address and port combination.

DestXCF
The dynamic XCF address (IPCONFIG6 DYNAMICXCF) of a target stack for incoming connections to the DVIPA and port.

If the Flg field value 1 is displayed and the RtgType field value GRE or ENCAP is displayed when the DETAIL keyword is used, then this field represents the IP address of the tier 1 target for incoming connections to the DVIPA.

Flg
Flags including the following values:
OptLocal
Indicates that the OPTLOCAL keyword was defined on the VIPADISTRIBUTE profile statement. To see the OPTLOCAL value currently in effect, issue the Netstat VIPADCFG/-F command with the DETAIL keyword.
Tier1
Indicates that the DVIPA is used to distribute incoming requests to tier 1 targets.
Tier2
Indicates that the DVIPA is used to distribute incoming requests from tier 1 targets to a group of tier 2 server applications.

For a SHORT or LONG format report:

DistMethod
The distribution method in use.
BaseWLM
Indicates that WLM system weights and policy information are used to distribute incoming connection requests.
HotStandby
Indicates that HotStandby distribution is in use.
Roundrobin
Indicates that incoming connection requests are distributed using the round-robin method.
ServerWLM
Indicates that WLM server weights and policy information are used to distribute incoming connection requests.

WLM server weights are used if SERVERWLM was specified on the VIPADISTRIBUTE statement for this DVIPA and port, and all target servers are able to provide WLM server-specific weights. Otherwise, BaseWLM is used.

WeightedActive
Indicates that incoming connection requests are distributed using the weighted active connections method.

Rule: For a short format report, you need to use the DETAIL modifier to display this field.

SrvType
Indicates the server type when the HotStandby distribution method is configured.
Backup
Indicates that this is a backup target. A backup target is initially a hot standby target. Connections are not distributed to hot standby targets. If the active target becomes unavailable, the distributor switches targets and one of the hot standby targets becomes the active target.

When the server type is backup, the rank of the backup is displayed:

Rank
Used to determine which target is selected if the preferred target is unavailable. The highest ranked available backup is used.
Preferred
Indicates that this is the preferred target. If AUTOSWITCHBACK is configured, then the preferred target is the active target if it is available and has not had any health problems. If the active target becomes unavailable, the distributor switches to use a hot standby target; the active target becomes a hot standby target and the selected hot standby target becomes the active target.

Rule: For a short format report, you need to use the DETAIL modifier to display this field.

SysPt
Indicates whether coordinated Sysplex-wide ephemeral port assignment is activated for this distributed DVIPA.
TimAff
The value that was defined in the TIMEDAFFINITY parameter on the VIPADISTRIBUTE profile statement. The value No indicates that TIMEDAFFINITY is not specified or is set to zero.
DETAIL
Displays the general dynamic VIPA configuration information and the OPTLOCAL value.

If the distribution method is WEIGHTEDActive, then the configured active connection weight is displayed.

If the distribution method is HotStandby, then the AUTOSWITCHBACK and HEALTHSWITCH information is displayed.

If the DVIPA value TIER1 or TIER2 was specified, the name of the targeted server application group is displayed.

AUTOSWITCHBACK
Indicates whether the distributor automatically switches distribution back to the preferred target when it is available and healthy.

If the preferred target becomes a standby target because it is no longer available and later becomes available and healthy, the value Yes indicates that the distributor automatically switches back to using the preferred target as the active target. This is the default value.

The value No indicates that the distributor does not automatically switch back to the preferred target.

HEALTHSWITCH
Indicates whether the distributor automatically switches from the active target if the active target is not healthy.

The value Yes indicates that the distributor does switch from the active target when it is not healthy. This is the default.

The value No indicates that the distributor ignores health metrics. The distributor switches from the active target only if the target is not ready or if the distributor does not have an active route to the target.

OPTLOCAL
A value of 0 indicates that connections originating from a target stack within the sysplex should always bypass sending the connection request to the sysplex distributor. The relative capacity of the WLM weights for servers on other target stacks within the sysplex are not considered when determining whether the connection should remain local.

A value of 1 indicates that connections originating from a target stack within the sysplex should always bypass sending the connection request to the sysplex distributor as long as the WLM weight for the server on the local target stack's WLM weight is not 0. This is the default value if the OPTLOCAL field is specified without a value.

If a value in the range 2 – 16 is specified, this value is used as a multiplier against the raw WLM weight of the server on the local target stack to cause this server to be favored over the servers on other target stacks. The relative capacity of the WLM weights of the servers on the other target stacks within the sysplex is considered when determining which stack should process the connection. The greater the value specified, the more likely that the local stack is favored over other target stacks.

Regardless of the value that is specified on the OPTLOCAL statement, if one of the following conditions exists, connections are sent to the distributing stack:
  • No local server is available
  • The SEF value has fallen below 75
  • The number of abnormal transaction completions has exceeded 250
  • The health indicator is less than 75
Weight
The configured distribution method is WEIGHTEDActive. This is the configured active connection weight that is used when incoming connections are distributed to this target stack.
PROCTYPE
The expected utilization proportion of each type of processor (CP, zAAP, and zIIP) that an application's workload will consume. This field is displayed only when the configured distribution method is BASEWLM.
CP
The expected utilization proportion of general CPU processor capacity.
zAAP
The expected utilization proportion of zAAP processor capacity.
zIIP
The expected utilization proportion of zIIP processor capacity.
ProcXCost
The crossover cost that is applied to the workload that was targeted to a zAAP or zIIP processor but that ran on the conventional processor when the composite SERVERWLM weight is determined. The weight 1 indicates that crossover cost is not considered when the composite SERVERWLM weight is determined. This parameter is displayed only when the distribution method is SERVERWLM.
zAAP
The crossover cost of running a workload that was targeted to a zAAP processor on a general CPU instead of on the zAAP processor.
zIIP
The crossover cost of running a workload that was targeted to a zIIP processor on a general CPU instead of on the zIIP processor.
ILWeighting
The configured importance level weighting factor. This field is displayed only when the configured distribution method is SERVERWLM. See the following possible values:
0
Indicates that systems that have displaceable capacity at low importance levels are not favored over systems that have displaceable capacity at high importance levels.
1
Indicates that WLM should weight displaceable capacity at each successively lower importance level slightly higher than the capacity that is at the preceding higher importance level. The weighting increases proportionally to the square root of the difference between the importance level values plus 1. This ILWeighting value provides a moderate bias when you compare displaceable capacity at different importance levels.
2
Indicates that WLM should weight displaceable capacity at each successively lower importance level significantly higher than the capacity that is at the preceding higher importance level. The weighting increases proportionally to the difference between the importance level values plus 1. This ILWeighting value provides an aggressive bias when you compare displaceable capacity at different importance levels.
3
Indicates that WLM should weight displaceable capacity at each successively lower importance level significantly higher than the capacity that is at the preceding higher importance level. The weighting grows proportionally to the square of the difference between the importance level values plus 1. This ILWeighting value provides an exceptionally aggressive bias when you compare displaceable capacity at different importance levels.
