Chapter 6 GUI Reference

Export CSV button: This button exports, to a CSV file, the information for the paths
displayed in the Path List view. The default name for the CSV file is home-
directory
/pathlist.csv. When no path is displayed in the Path List view, the Export
CSV
button is displayed as inactive.

Column headers: The column header for each column is a button. When you click the

button, the path information is sorted using the information in the clicked header's column
as the sorting key. A triangle is displayed on the far right of the header of the column used

as the sorting key. Clicking the header button switches between sorting in ascending or
descending order. When the sort is in ascending order,

is displayed on the far right of the

header. When the sort is in descending order,

is displayed on the far right of the header.

Status: This column displays icons that indicate the path status. The meanings of the icons
displayed in the status column are described below:

„

Indicates that the path status is Online or Online(P). This means the active status.

„

Indicates that the path status is Offline(C). This means the HDLM GUI or command-

initiated offline status.

„

Indicates that the path status is Offline(E) or Offline(P). This means the failure-

induced offline status. If the intermittent error monitoring functionality is enabled, the
icon flashes when an intermittent error occurs in the path (The icon lights for 3 seconds
and then goes out for 0.2 seconds, repeatedly).

„

Indicates that the path status is Online(E) or Online(EP). This means that an error

occurred. If none of the paths accessing a device is in the Online status, one of the paths
is changed to the Online(E) status. When the LU dynamic deletion functionality is used,
the path whose status is Online(E) is deleted. Therefore it is not displayed.

„

If the intermittent error monitoring functionality is enabled, the icon flashes when an
intermittent error occurs in the path (The icon lights for 3 seconds and then goes out for
0.2 seconds, repeatedly).

If you sort the path information in ascending order of the path status values, the sort
order is as shown below. By default, the path information is sorted in descending order
of path status values.

Online or Online(P)

Offline(C)

Offline(E) or Offline(P)

Offline(E) (intermittent error)

Online(E) or Online(EP)

Online(E) (intermittent error)

Paths that are indicated by Offline(E), Offline(P), Online(E) or Online(EP) require
corrective action. Take appropriate action according to section 5.3.

Path ID: This column displays the AutoPATH_ID as a decimal number. The AutoPATH_IDs are
re-assigned every time the host is restarted.
