FICON Management Server Parameters
The following provides a detailed description of the parameters you can set when
you configure the FICON Management Server:
■ Switch Clock Alert Mode—Click this check box to display a check mark
and enable Clock Alert Mode. If this is enabled, the following occurs when
users set the date and time through the Configure Date and Time dialog box
(Configure menu):
— If you enable Periodic Date/Time Synchronization, an error message
displays, indicating that clock alert mode must be cleared to enable
automatic synchronization of the date and time.
— If you manually set the date and time (Periodic Date/Time
Synchronization is not enabled), a confirmation dialog box will display.
You must click OK on that dialog box to continue manual configuration.
■ Host Control Prohibited—Click this check box to display a check mark and
prohibit a host management program from changing configuration and
connectivity parameters on the switch. In this case, the host program will only
have read authorization and cannot make changes. When the check mark is
not displayed, a host program can change configuration and connectivity
parameters on the switch.
■ Programmed offline state control—Click this check box to display a check
mark and enable a host management program to control the switch’s offline
and online state. When a check mark is not displayed, a host program cannot
set the switch online or offline.
■ Code Page—Use this option to set the language required for the port name
that displays on the Management Server. Language support is provided
through character set 697 for all Extended Binary-Coded Decimal Interchange
Code (EBCDIC) pages.
When planning the installation, choose the EBCDIC code page for displaying
host-assigned port names or the CUP name. As an example, if the code page
for Italy is selected and a port name is assigned in Italian by the host
management program, the Italian language port name displays in the Element
Manager.
