Description
This path has been successfully established and can be used for Continuous Access
Synchronous Z remote copy activities.
The link initialization procedure with the remote system has failed, because the physical
path connection between either the main and remote system, or between the main system
and the host, was missing.
A timeout error has occurred between the main and remote system.
The logical path link function has been rejected by the remote system. All logical path
resources in the remote system might be used for other connections.
The serial number of the control unit that is connected to this logical path does not match
the serial number specified by the Add RCU dialog box.
The specified port does not have the initiator attribute.
There are three possible causes:
The specified port in the remote system is physically disconnected from the main system.
The port is not configured as an RCU target port.
The specified port number is not available.
The microcode on the remote side does not support the fibre remote copy function; or the
specified port type is not RCU target.
A timeout error has occurred on the path between the main and remote system.
This logical path was blockaded because a path error or a link error occurred continuously.
This logical path was blockaded because a program error occurred.
This logical path is in progress of changing the attribute of port.
