 » Index

The start_internal_pu command requests DLUR to initiate SSCP-PU session activation for a previously defined local PU that is served by DLUR.

This command must be issued to a running node.

Supplied Parameters

Parameter name        Type            Length    Default
[start_internal_pu]
pu_name character 8
dlus_name character 17 (null string)
bkup_dlus_name character 17 (null string)

Supplied parameters are:

pu_name

Name of the internal PU to be started. This PU must have been previously defined using define_internal_pu. The name is a type-A character string starting with a letter.

dlus_name

Name of the DLUS node that DLUR will contact to solicit SSCP-PU session activation for the given PU. Specify 3-17 type-A characters, consisting of a 1-8 character network name, followed by a period, followed by a 1-8 character DLUS node name.

To use the DLUS specified in define_internal_pu, or the global default specified in define_dlur_defaults if no DLUS was specified in define_internal_pu, do not specify this parameter.

bkup_dlus_name

Name of the DLUS node that DLUR will store as the backup DLUS for the given PU. Specify 3-17 type-A characters, consisting of a 1-8 character network name, followed by a period, followed by a 1-8 character backup DLUS name.

To use the backup DLUS specified in define_internal_pu, or the global backup default specified in define_dlur_defaults if no backup DLUS was specified in define_internal_pu, do not specify this parameter.

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_DLUS_NAME

The dlus_name parameter contained a character that was not valid or was not in the correct format.

INVALID_BKUP_DLUS_NAME

The bkup_dlus_name parameter contained a character that was not valid or was not in the correct format.

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:

NO_DEFAULT_DLUS_DEFINED

A DLUS name was not specified either on this command or on define_internal_pu, and there is no default DLUS defined (because define_dlur_defaults has not been issued).

PU_NOT_DEFINED

The supplied PU name was not the name of an internal PU defined using define_internal_pu.

PU_ALREADY_ACTIVATING

The PU is already being activated.

PU_ALREADY_ACTIVE

The PU has already been activated.

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 node does not support DLUR; support is defined by the dlur_support parameter on the define_node command.

secondary_rc

(This parameter is not used.)

Other Conditions

If the command does not execute because other conditions exist, SNAplus2 returns the following parameters:

primary_rc

UNSUCCESSFUL

secondary_rc

Possible values are:

DLUS_REJECTED

The DLUS rejected the session activation request.

DLUS_CAPS_MISMATCH

The configured DLUS name was not a DLUS node.

PU_FAILED_ACTPU

The local node rejected a message from the DLUS. This can be caused by an internal error, a resource shortage, or a problem with the received message; check the SNAplus2 log files for messages providing more information.

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