Figure 38 Add Path Dialog Box (Fibre)

MCU Port: allows you to select the MCU port number from the drop-down list or to enter the port
number directly. Initiator ports are listed.

RCU Port: allows you to select the RCU port number from the drop-down list or to enter the port
number directly. You must select an RCU target port.

The number of enabled fields indicates the number of paths that can be added.

You can specify the port number with two characters. For instance, you can abbreviate CL1-A to
1A. You can also enter the port number in both lowercase and uppercase characters.

To add one or more new logical paths from the connected MCU to an existing RCU:

1.

Click the RCU Operation tab, and click the MCU&RCU display button.

2.

Select and double-click the desired MCU CU in the tree, and select the RCU to which you
want to add one or more paths. Alternatively, select the RCU in the list, right-click, and click
Edit SSID(s) & Path(s). All paths to the selected RCU are listed.

3.

Right-click the path and SSID list, and click Add Path to open the Add Path dialog box.

4.

On the Add Path dialog box, enter the new path(s).

5.

Click Set to close the Add Path dialog box. The preview list now displays the requested add
path operation(s).

6.

Verify the requested operation(s) displayed in the preview list.

To change the add path operation, select the operation from the preview list, right-click, and
click Modify. To remove the operation, select the operation, right-click, and click Delete. To
cancel all operations, select all the operations in the preview list, right-click, and click the
Delete command, or click Cancel.

7.

To start the operation(s), click Apply. The MCU will automatically begin using the new logical
path for TrueCopy for Mainframe activities.

Before deleting a path to an RCU, make sure that the remaining number of paths will be equal to
or greater than the minimum number of paths setting (on the RCU Option dialog box). The delete
path operation will fail if the number of remaining paths is less than the minimum number of paths.
