Logical Path Control function

This function establishes and deletes inter-disk controller logical paths or inter-control unit logical
paths. It creates an environment for paths required for operations from the primary site to Business
Continuity Manager.

For monitoring events and errors

YKEWAIT

This monitors status changes for copy pairs in the specified copy group, waiting for the specified
status to be reached. The execution results are saved in the message structure. This enables
statuses to be monitored for Continuous Access Journal Z and remote site copy pairs.

YKWATCH

This monitors the copy pair status transition for a specified copy group. It sends a notification
message when all the copy pairs have been placed in a specified status. The status of
Continuous Access Journal Z copy pairs or copy pairs on remote sites cannot be monitored.
