configuration file.

LISTCONF

DOHA

(do) to verify and activate the configuration.

delconf

Each of these high availability configuration commands is documented in the

following sections.

GONEXT

is used after a failover event and is documented in

Chapter 6, "Recovering From a Failover."

NOTE

HAFO configuration commands should only be executed when there are no

broken paths or Ldevs that have failed over. All Ldevs must be operating on

their primary path.

NOTE

HAFO Configuration commands depend upon information stored in the MPE/iX

Volume Label. HAFO configuration commands should only be performed if

:DSTAT shows MASTER or MEMBER status for the volume. HAFO may not

work properly on volumes in states such as “UNKNOWN”, “SCRATCHED”,

“LOANER”, etc.
