 » Index

The define_downstream_lu_range command defines a range of new downstream LUs and maps them to an upstream host LU or LU pool. This command cannot be used to modify existing downstream LUs.

The supplied parameters include a base name for the new LUs and the range of NAU addresses. The LU base name and NAU addresses are combined to generate the new LU names. For example, a base name of LUNME combined with a NAU address in the range 11-14 results in the following LU names: LUNME011, LUNME012, LUNME013 and LUNME014.

Supplied Parameters

Parameter name                   Type            Length      Default
[define_downstream_lu_range]
dslu_base_name character 5
description character 31 (null string)
min_nau decimal 1
max_nau decimal 1
dspu_name character 8
host_lu_name character 8
allow_timeout constant NO
delayed_logon constant NO

Supplied parameters are:

dslu_base_name

Base name for the names of the new LUs. This name is a type-A character string of 1-5 characters starting with a letter. SNAplus2 generates an LU name for each LU by appending the 3-digit decimal value of the NAU address to the base name.

description

A text string describing the downstream LUs; the same string is used for each LU in the range. SNAplus2 uses this string for information only. It is stored in the node's configuration file and returned on the query_downstream_lu command.

min_nau

NAU address of the first LU, in the range 1-255.

max_nau

NAU address of the last LU, in the range 1-255.

dspu_name

Name of the downstream PU (as specified on define_*_ls, where * is replaced by the LS type) that the downstream LUs in this range use. The name is a type-A character string starting with a letter.

host_lu_name

Name of the host LU or host LU pool to which the downstream LUs in the given range are mapped. The name is an 8-byte character string.

allow_timeout

Specifies whether to allow the sessions this range of downstream LUs have with the upstream LU to timeout if the session is left inactive for the timeout period specified on the upstream LU definition. Possible values are:

YES

Allow the sessions this range of downstream LUs have with the upstream LU to timeout.

NO

Do not allow the session this range of downstream LUs have with the upstream LU to timeout.

delayed_logon

Specifies whether to use delayed logon with this range of downstream LUs (the upstream LU is not activated until the user requests it). Possible values are:

YES

Use delayed logon with this range of downstream LUs; the upstream LU is not activated until the user requests it.

NO

Do not use delayed logon with this range of downstream LUs.

Returned Parameters

No parameters are returned by SNAplus2 when this command executes successfully.

Error Return Codes

If the command cannot be executed, SNAplus2 returns a primary return code to indicate the type of error and a secondary return code to provide specific details about the reason for unsuccessful execution.

Parameter Check

If the command does not execute because of a parameter error, SNAplus2 returns the following parameters:

primary_rc

PARAMETER_CHECK

secondary_rc

Possible values are:

INVALID_DNST_LU_NAME

The supplied dslu_base_name parameter contained a character that was not valid.

INVALID_NAU_ADDRESS

The min_nau parameter value, max_nau parameter value, or both parameter values were not in the valid range.

INVALID_ALLOW_TIMEOUT

The supplied allow_timeout parameter value was not valid.

INVALID_DELAYED_LOGON

The supplied delayed_logon parameter value was not valid.

State Check

If the command does not execute because of a state error, SNAplus2 returns the following parameters:

primary_rc

STATE_CHECK

secondary_rc

Possible values are:

INVALID_PU_NAME

The specified dspu_name parameter value was not valid.

PU_NOT_DEFINED

The specified dspu_name parameter did not match any defined PU name.

INVALID_PU_TYPE

The PU specified by the dspu_name parameter is not a downstream PU that supports PU concentration.

LU_ALREADY_DEFINED

An LU has already been defined with a name that matches one of the names in the range. The existing LU cannot be modified using this command.

LU_NAU_ADDR_ALREADY_DEFD

An LU has already been defined with an NAU address that matches one of the addresses in the range.

INVALID_HOST_LU_NAME

The specified host_lu_name parameter value was not valid.

LU_NAME_POOL_NAME_CLASH

One of the LU names in the range matches the name of an existing LU pool.

Function Not Supported

If the command does not execute because the node's configuration does not support it, SNAplus2 returns the following parameters:

primary_rc
FUNCTION_NOT_SUPPORTED

The local node does not support PU concentration; this support is defined by the pu_conc_support parameter on the define_node command.

secondary_rc

(This parameter is not used.)

Other Conditions

Appendix A “Common Return Codes from snapadmin Commands” lists combinations of primary and secondary return codes that are common to all commands.
