System Boot Failover Initialization Utility
During system boot, the HAFO configuration utility reads the HAFOCONF configuration file and arms HAFO. The alternate path information becomes frozen in memory and is available to any configured devices when needed to complete an HAFO event.
High Availability Failover Commands
The following commands are used to configure and maintain the HAFOCONF configuration file.
addconf (ad) — adds high availability device configuration
delconf (de) — deletes high availability device configuration
listconf (li) — lists high availability device configurations
doha — validates high availability device configurations, and activates the HAFO configuration
goback (go) — instructs device manage to use the primary data path
help — get help on HAFO commands
exit — exit the "ha" section and return to the "io" section of SYSGEN.
High Availability Failover Status
With the installation of HAFO, a new reporting command, HASTAT, is supplied. The report lists each configured LDEV, its primary and alternate paths, and their status. This feature is documented in detail in the Chapter 5 "Monitoring Status".
HAFOCONF Configuration File
Each configured HAFO ldev will have a record entry in the HAFOCONF configuration file. This file will reside in SYSGEN's CONFIG groups. The HAFO information configured or modified using the HAFO commands resides in this file. HASTAT displays the High Availability FailOver/iX Status information available from this file.
