Table 7. Configuration Parameter List - Dependent LU Requester (continued)
Parameter Information
Parameter
Default fully-qualified CP name of backup dependent LU server (DLUS)
Valid Values
A string of up to 17 characters in the form of
netID.CPname
, where:
v
netID
is a network ID from 1 to 8 characters
v
CPname
is a CP name from 1 to 8 characters
Each name must conform to the following rules:
v First character: A to Z
v Second to eighth characters: A to Z, 0 to 9
Note: An existing fully-qualified CP name, using the special characters @, $, and #
from the character set A, continues to be supported; however, these characters should
not be used for new CP names.
Default Value
Null
Description
This parameter specifies the fully-qualified CP name of the dependent LU server
(DLUS) that is used as the default backup. A backup is not required, and the null value
(representing no entry) indicates the absence of a default backup server. The default
backup server may be overridden on a link station basis.
Parameter
Perform retries to restore disrupted pipe
Valid Values
Yes, No
Default Value
No
Description
This parameter specifies whether DLUR will attempt to reestablish the pipe to a DLUS
after a pipe failure. If DLUR receives a non-disruptive UNBIND and this parameter is
No, DLUR waits indefinitely for a DLUS to reestablish the broken pipe. If the pipe fails
for any other reason and this parameter is No, DLUR attempts to reach the primary
DLUS once. If this is unsuccessful, DLUR attempts to reach the backup DLUS. If this
attempt also fails, DLUR waits indefinitely for a DLUS to reestablish the pipe.
See “DLUR Retry Algorithm” on page 41 for a description of the retry algorithm.
