2.5 Functional extensions for SM pubsets
The new SMPGEN MODIFY-SYSTEM-MANAGED-PUBSET statement can be used
to extend existing system managed pubsets by single feature pub-
sets, where each single feature pubset is turned into a volume
set of the system managed pubset.
The user data and the management and protection information of
the new single feature pubsets and the existing system managed
pubsets remain unchanged.
Note:
Before converting a single feature pubset into a system
managed pubset, you should make a physical backup with FDDRL and
a logical backup with HSMS, since the single feature pubset can
be destroyed if an error abort occurs.
PVSREN V2.0 offers the new functionality of creating independent
pubsets from pubset mirrors within a system. Either single fea-
ture pubsets or system managed pubsets can be used as the source
for this.
With system managed pubsets, the renaming rules for the volume
sets are stored in a parameter file. Even pubset mirrors that
have been separated off and whose VSNs satisfy the "colon syntax"
can be converted into independent pubsets.
2.6 Number of MRSCAT entries > 1024
The previous limit of maximum 1024 MRSCAT entries has been re-
moved. A maximum of 4096 MRSCAT entries are now possible in
BS2000/OSD-BC V6.0.
2.7 Faster failure detection in MSCF
If the system is being monitored with the Live Monitor (component
of HIPLEX AF V3.2), the failure of a participant in the MSCF net-
work is now detected faster and more reliably. After the failure
has been surely detected by the live monitor, failure processing
in MSCF can be started automatically after a minimal wait time.
Fast failure detection and processing is possible in an XCS and
SPVS network with any number of participants and in a CCS net-
work.
A prerequisite for this is that HIPLEX AF is installed on all
participants in the MSCF network as well as on the subsidiary
systems (e.g. the VM2000 monitor systems) and the Live Monitor is
active.
The products HIPLEX-MSCF V4.0 und HIPLEX AF V3.2 are required for
this function. In addition to the functions of the Live Monitor,
HIPLEX AF V3.2 also offers further innovations such as, e.g.
fully automatic warm standby high availability solutions and
AutoSwap.
No dependencies exist between the MSCF configuration and the
HIPLEX AF configuration for fast failure detection.
Please consult the SYSFGM.MSCF.150.E and SYSFGM.HIPLEX-AF.032.E
Release Notices for detailed information on the functional scope.
