Fields in formatted output

Formatted output for the CQUERY command contains the following fields:
DEVICE
Displays the 4-digit hexadecimal device address. SCH(x) indicates the subchannel for the device.
LEVEL
Displays whether the volume is a primary or secondary volume. For a primary volume, it also displays the status of the volume as defined by the CRIT parameter of the CESTPAIR command that established the pair.

If neither PRIMARY nor SECONDARY is displayed, the volume is not part of a PPRC pair.

CRIT(NO) indicates that you either issued the CESTPAIR command without the CRIT parameter, or specified CRIT(NO).

CRIT(YES-PATHS) indicates that the volume pair only be write-inhibited when there are no PPRC paths available. CRIT(YES-ALL) indicates that the primary storage control has been configured to suspend the pair and prevent I/O to the primary volume as a result of any error, including an error on the primary or secondary volume. CRIT(YES-PATHS) and CRIT(YES-ALL) both indicate that the CESTPAIR command included the CRIT(YES) parameter.

STATE
Indicates whether the PPRC volume is in simplex, pending, duplex, suspended (suspend(n)), extended distance pending XD, Multi-Target Internal Relationship (MTIR) or extended distance susp(n).xd state. The value n for SUSPEND is one of the following:
  • (3) — The PPRC volume pair was suspended by a host command to the primary site storage control.
  • (4) — The PPRC volume pair was suspended by a host command to the recovery site storage control.
  • (5) — A command issued by the primary site storage control to the recovery site storage control has suspended the pair. Only a recovery site storage control returns value 5.
  • (6) — Internal conditions within either storage control have suspended the pair. Either storage control returns value 6.
  • (7) — The transition of the recovery volume to the simplex state has suspended the pair. Only a primary site storage control returns value 7.
  • (8) — The primary site storage control has suspended the pair as a result of abnormal conditions within the recovery site storage subsystem. These conditions may involve the storage control, its attached disk devices, and the ESCON paths between the two sites. The primary site storage control detects and reports this condition.
  • (9) — Either an IPL, or a power interruption to either storage control, have suspended the pair. The storage control that received the interruption returns value 9.
  • (11) — Copy is suspended due to secondary device detecting media errors.
  • (A) — A CGROUP command with the FREEZE parameter has suspended the pair. You must query a primary device to receive value A.
PATH STATUS
Displays whether the status is active or inactive.
SSID CCA LSS Serial # PRIMARY
Displays the four-character subsystem ID (SSID) of the primary site storage control, the two-character LSS CCA of the primary volume and, when available, the storage control serial number (up to 12 characters).
SSID CCA LSS Serial # SECONDARY
Displays the four-character subsystem ID (SSID) of the recovery site storage control, the two-character LSS CCA of the primary volume, and the storage control serial number (up to 12 characters).
CRIT
Displays the status of the CRIT keyword of the CESTPAIR command.
CGRPLB
Indicates whether or not the storage subsystem is configured to support PPRC consistency grouping.
INCRES
Indicates whether the incremental resync change recording mechanism has been started for the Metro/Global Mirror environment.
Additional status lines for the queried device might be displayed:
THIS DEVICE IS CURRENTLY IN A CASCADED, FAILOVER STATE.
THIS DEVICE IS CURRENTLY PRIMED FOR RESYNCHRONIZATION. 
PAIR WAS THE TARGET OF A WITHDRAWN PRESERVE MIRROR RELATION.
THIS DEVICE IS CURRENTLY IN A SOFT FENCE STATE.
THIS PAIR HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED TO BE USED FOR PRESERVE MIRROR.
PATHS
Displays the number of valid links, if there are any, between primary site and recovery site storage controls.
SAID
Displays the four-character system adapter ID (SAID) of the primary site storage control. SAID and DEST
DEST
Specifies up to four 4-digit, hexadecimal-character link addresses. The link addresses each consist of a 2-digit, hexadecimal-character ESCON port address followed by 00.
XXXX XXXX --
The storage control has an association recorded between the indicated primary and secondary subsystems, but 0 paths identified, so was it not able to determine the SAID and DEST. A path and a status of FF will be displayed. This may occur after a freeze is issued. To clean up the XXXX XXXX values, an establish path must be issued. The SSID, CCA, LSS, Serial number, and WWNN are given to help determine the correct primary and secondary parameters to use for the establish path command. If you are continuing operations after a freeze, reestablish the path and pairs. If a link between these two subsystems is no longer required, the association should be removed by reestablishing the path between the primary and secondary subsystems, deleting any suspended pairs, and then deleting the path.
PFCA
Displays the primary Fibre Channel adapter identifier.
SFCA
Displays the secondary Fibre Channel adapter identifier.
STATUS
Displays a 2-digit number that indicates the detailed status of the path.
DESCRIPTION
Provides a short description of the status indicator:
  • 00 — No path
  • 01 — Established path
  • 02 — Either initialization or reinitialization has failed, or the path is inoperative
  • 03 — Time out
  • 04 — No resources available at primary site storage control
  • 05 — No resources available at recovery site storage control
  • 06 — Serial number mismatch
  • 10 — Configuration error
  • 13 — Fibre Path Established
  • 14 — Fibre Channel Path Link Down
  • 15 — Fibre Channel Path Retry Exceeded
  • 16 — Fibre Channel Path Secondary Adapter not PPRC Capable
  • 17 — Fibre Channel Path Secondary Adapter not Available
  • 18 — Fibre Channel Path Primary Login Exceeded
  • 19 — Fibre Channel Path Secondary Login Exceeded
  • 1A — Primary Fibre Channel not Configured
  • 1B — Fibre Degraded
  • 1C — Fibre Removed
  • nn — Status is undetermined
  • FF — Unable to determine
FIRST CYL OUT OF SYNCH (displayed for RAMAC Virtual Array (RVA and IBM® 3990)
This information, when available, is presented only for volumes in pending and suspended states.

If the volume is a primary volume, this is the lowest cylinder number that is out of synchronization on the primary volume. For a secondary volume, this is the lower cylinder number that was received from the primary. This update is in cache, as PPRC has not yet written this update to the secondary volume.

LAST CYL OUT OF SYNCH (displayed for RAMAC Virtual Array (RVA and IBM 3990)
This information, when available, is presented only for volumes in pending and suspended states.

If the volume is a primary volume, this is the highest cylinder number out of synchronization on the primary volume. For a secondary volume, this is the higher cylinder number that was received from the primary. This update is in cache, as PPRC has not yet written this update to the secondary volume.

TRACKS OUT OF SYNC (displayed for ESSs)
This information displays for volumes that are in PENDING or SUSPEND states. (The ESS must have the most current level of microcode installed.) If the volume is a primary volume, this is the number out-of-sync tracks that PPRC has not yet written to the secondary volume.
TRACKS ON VOLUMES (displayed for ESSs)
This information displays for volumes that are in PENDING or SUSPEND states. (The ESS must have the most current level of microcode installed.) If the volume is a primary volume, this is the number of tracks that exist on the volume.
PERCENT OF COPY COMPLETED
Displays the percent completed for the copy operation based on the number of cylinders or tracks on the particular type of storage control. This is an optional line of information that PPRC presents only if the volume is a primary volume and the information is available.
SECONDARY WAS SUSPENDED
When it is available, displays the Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) to indicate when this secondary volume became suspended. The UTC, in the ISO format “YYYY-MM-DD HH.MM.SS.NNNNNN”, is the time-of-day clock value from the host system from which the CSUSPEND command was issued.
SUBSYSTEM
Indicates all the primary and secondary storage controls that are associated with each WWNN that may have been established by a CESTPATH request. The presence of either PRIMARY or SECONDARY indicates that the subsystem is associated with a PPRC path.

The subsystem may have PPRC activity that is unrelated to the device for which the query was issued. The WWNN information may be included in the CQUERY 'VOLUME REPORT' as long as there is an active Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) path on the device's associated LSS. The device for which the query was issued may not show active paths on the CQUERY 'VOLUME REPORT'. If the CQUERY 'PATHS REPORT' indicates active paths for the device, the WWNN information may be related to that device.

PRIMARY indicates that the associated WWNN is for a primary (or source) logical subsystem or storage control. SECONDARY indicates that the associated WWNN is for a secondary (or target) logical subsystem or storage control.

The absense of either PRIMARY or SECONDARY next to a WWNN indicates that the query request could not determine the status of the subsystem. The WWNN is provided as informational data.

WWNN (Primary, Secondary)
Specifies the World Wide Node Name (WWNN) that is used to access a primary or secondary logical subsystem or storage control referenced by the SSID using fibre channel protocol (FCP) linkage. Every ESS is assigned a WWNN and is 16 hexadecimal digits in length.

The presence of the WWNN information indicates that there is one or more paths established in the LSS associated with the device for which the QUERY was issued.

UNKNOWN — means the Query was not able to determine the WWNN of a subsystem.

Note: The SUBSYSTEM and WWNN values are only displayed when a logical subsystem or storage control is FCP enabled.
