Failure of a link between

the MCU and RCU

No

1.

IEA480 message (SIM for TC390 path

blocked) is reported when the next I/O to

any device in this MCU is issued.

2.

No IEA491 or IEA494 messages are

displayed.

Not

activated

Ð

Failure of NVS on the MCU; Failure of MCU read cache

a. One side of MCU

cache blocked due

to failure

No

1

1.

IEA480 (SIM for cache blocked) is reported

when the next I/O to any device in this

MCU is issued.

2.

No IEA491 or IEA494 messages are

displayed.

activated

b. One side of MCU

cache blocked due

to maintenance

No

1

No IEA480, IEA491, or IEA494 messages are

c. One side of MCU

cache blocked by

SET CACHE OFF

No

ƒ

Both sides of MCU cache

blocked due to failure

No

No IEA480, IEA491, or IEA494 messages are

displayed.
The MCU returns CC=3 for all I/Os.

Not

activated

Ý

Failure of a disk on the RCU

a. Failure of one

physical device in

a parity group

No

1.

The RCU reports IEA480 message (SIM for

physical device blocked or port of physical

device blocked) to either the MCU or the

host processor (whichever issues the next

I/O first) when the next I/O is issued to any

logical volume in the parity group. If MCU

receives the SIM, it passes the SIM to the

attached host processor, and the IEA480

message is reported when the next I/O to

this MCU is issued to any main (primary)

volume paired with the logical volume in the

parity group.

2.

No IEA491 or IEA494 messages are

displayed.

Not

activated

b. Failure of two

physical devices in

a parity group

Yes

1.

The RCU reports IEA480 message (SIM for

LDEV blocked) to either the MCU or the host

processor (whichever issues the next I/O

first) when the next I/O is issued to any

logical volume in the parity group. If MCU

receives the SIM, it passes the SIM to the

attached host processor, and the IEA480

message is reported when the next I/O to

this MCU is issued to any main volume

paired with the logical volume in the parity

group.

2.

One (or more) IEA494 messages showing

EXTENDED LONG BUSY are displayed.

3.

One (or more) IEA491 and IEA494

messages showing PAIR SUSPENDED are

displayed.

Activated if

the FREEZE

option is

enabled for

the affected

LCU pairs.
