Changing the Cross-subsystem Path

To change the cross-subsystem path, cancel the current cross-subsystem path,
and configure another cross-subsystem path as a new cross-subsystem path.
Replacing All the Cross-subsystem Paths with Newly-added Cross-
subsystem Paths
This section explains how to change all the current cross-subsystem paths to
newly-added cross-subsystem paths with an example.
Figure 5-12 shows the overview of the operation and the status of the cross-
subsystem paths. When you delete the current cross-subsystem paths (A and
B) and add new cross-subsystem paths (C and D), you cannot delete both the
current cross-subsystem paths (A and B) in one operation because at least one
current path which functions normally has to be configured. In this case, you
need to delete the cross-subsystem path A and add the cross-subsystem path
C, and then apply the setting. After that, you need to delete the cross-
subsystem path B and add the cross-subsystem path D.
