Displaying FICON emulation performance statistics

FICON emulation monitoring

Use examples in this section to display emulation monitoring for extension blades and switches.
Use the -emul option for the portShow xtun command to display FICON emulation statistics.
Following is an example of using this command:
switch:admin> portshow xtun [slot/}ve_port -ficon -emul
The -emul option displays statistics and status for printer, Teradata, tape, and IBM z/OS Global
Mirror Emulation (XRC) emulation.
IBM z/OS Global Mirror emulation (formerly eXtended Remote Copy or XRC) and tape statistics are
presented differently in output formats for the -emul option. The following elements are common to
both Tape Emulation and IBM z/OS Global Mirror Emulation outputs (refer to

The device path, in the format VE-HD-HP-DD-DP-LP-CU-DV. where:
•
VE is the internal VE_Port number.
•
HD is the hex value for the Host Domain (the entry domain for this host
port into the fabric).
•
HP is the hex value for the Host Port (the entry port of this host
connection into the fabric).
•
DD is the hex value for the Device Domain (the entry domain for this
device into the fabric).
•
DP is the hex value for the Device Port (the entry port for this device
connection into the fabric).
•
LP is the Logical Partition (LPAR) value for the host accessing the specific
device.
•
CU is the Control Unit number (CUADDR) for the specific FICON
connection.
•
DV is the Device Number of this FICON connected device.
For example, the value 2463016406050001 breaks down as follows.
