Data pubsets can only be activated and deactivated via the command interface. The home pubset is activated automatically during system startup and deactivated during shutdown.
Systems support can use the SHOW-PUBSET-IMPORT-EXPORT command to obtain information on the processing state of active import and export jobs.
Static pubset states
The pubset state changes each time it is activated and deactivated. This is also stored in the MRSCAT entry and provides information on pubset usage, see also the figure below.
Figure 13: Static pubset states
1) | This state means that no MRSCAT entry is defined |
2) | This state is assumed on a pubset slave when a shared pubset no longer has a pubset master after a master change has failed. The operator must start the master change explicitly with the IMPORT-PUBSET SHARER-TYPE=*MASTER(MASTER-CHANGE=*YES) command on one of the pubset slaves. |
3) | This state is assumed if the pubset is not imported. |
4) | This state is assumed by the pubset slave after the MSCF connection fails. |
5) | This state is assumed after the MSCF connection fails. |
