Re: STK-SUN-Brocade switch--2032 IOdef
Do you use the Brocade ECFM software to configure the switch (level 9.6 is current level, I believe)? I am working with Brocade i10k's, but I think your switch should use ECFM as well. If you don't have current level, you should upgrade that first. You should still be able to get devices connected if the IODF has an error on just some of the devices. Seems like zoning is the problem. Let me know if you use ECFM and I will try to stimulate my brain with caffeine to remember the details. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Wells Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2008 9:26 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Fw: STK-SUN-Brocade switch--2032 IOdef we have a brocade 5000...was there a specific rel level code?? any oither specifics?? we are going to try again this weekend.. even with out iodef not correct most of the devices should have come up.. as mentioned the STK guy mentioned zoning.. - Forwarded by Ron Wells/AGFS/AGFin on 06/10/2008 08:24 AM - Bielskie, Stephen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU 06/10/2008 08:14 AM Please respond to IBM Mainframe Discussion List IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU To IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU cc Subject Re: STK-SUN-Brocade switch--2032 IOdef Is this a new switch?

Re: STK-SUN-Brocade switch--2032 IOdef
There is an issue with enabling the default zone in EFCM. For some reason, at least on the i10ks, the default zone box is grayed out, so you have to trick the GUI into enabling it. This is how: Sign on to EFCM, highlight the switch, and select the Configure\zoning tab. When the pop-up appears, select the Zoning Policies button. You can enable default zone from there. If it is grayed out, you must toggle the Safe Zoning Mode checkbox, then click OK. Go back into the Zoning Policies, uncheck the Safe Zoning Mode checkbox, and the Default Zone should then be accessible. Mark it enabled, and Safe Zoning disabled. Close the dialog box, and then activate the zoning configuration. You want to use the default zone if you can, that way, you don't have to rezone anything if a GBIC is replaced (since it will have a different WWPN, it will have to be added to the zone). Default zone says to put everything that is not explicitly coded into zone, into a zone called default. This allows any-to-any connection within the switch, which works, since you define the paths through the switch in the IOCDS.

I had a situation once in setting up a switch configuration where the activation went fine but I had one channel that would never come on line.

Re: STK-SUN-Brocade switch--2032 IOdef
Hi Ron, We have 4 Brocade ( previously McData ) 6064 switches. We have 2 switches installed at our primary z/OS host site and 2 switches installed at our D/R site. We have 'paired' the switches into 2 seperate 'fabrics' that use multiple DWDM links that create each 'fabric'. Any control unit/device we want to use on the switches must be defined to the processor ( we have 2 z990's ) channel subsystem, of course. Also, the switches themselves are able to send status/error information to the z/OS 'director software component' via a CUP device. The switch knows of the CUP device by the port address in the LINK parameter of FE. Listed below is the IOCP control statements for one of the CUP devices on one of my primary z/OS host site switches: CHPID PATH=(CSS(0),E5),SHARED,* PARTITION=((C1LP01,C1LP02,C1LP03,C1LP04,C1LP05,C1LP06),(* =)),SWITCH=70,PCHID=3C1,TYPE=FC CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=F070,PATH=((CSS(0),E5)),UNITADD=((00,001)), * LINK=((CSS(0),70FE)),UNIT=2032 IODEVICE ADDRESS=070,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(F070),STADET=Y, * UNIT=2032 I'm not really clear on how/why/were SUN/STK got involved, unless you purchased the switches from SUN/STK. That would make sense. If not, then I'm not sure what the 'connection' issue is.
