Online and Offline Functionality

Some library functions require the physical library or partitions to be in a particular state (either online or
offline) before they can be performed. If you choose a function that requires the library or partition state to
be changed from its current state, you are prompted to do so.
Table 10 on page 222 summarizes the library functions that require the physical library or partitions to be
either online or offline.
