摘要:
A method and system are disclosed for generating a data logout in a computing environment having a processor and an input/output subsystem for receiving data from and sending data to the processor. The method comprises the steps of the input/output subsystem maintaining a defined set of data; at defined time, the processor issuing a data logout command; and sending said data logout command to the input/output subsystem. In response to receiving said data logout command, the input/output subsystem sends said defined set of data to a specified location. In a preferred implementation, the input/output subsystem includes a channel subsystem and a plurality of input/output devices, and the data logout command is sent to one of the input/output devices. Also, in the preferred embodiment, the channel subsystem includes a channel control unit function and the data logout command is sent to the channel control unit function.

A computer Input/Output system having a fabric, a control unit (CU) and a host computer including a channel, the channel having a channel port connected by a first link to a channel neighbor port of the fabric, and the control unit having a CU port connected by a second link to a CU neighbor port on the fabric. When an error is detected in the link or protocol between the channel and the control unit, error data are reported to the channel by the channel, the channel port, the channel neighbor port, the control unit, the CU port and the CU neighbor port and sent to the channel. The error data are provided to the host computer for analysis.

In an environment employing a fabric, such as a cascading switch network, a predictable input/output (I/O) configuration is provided. The I/O configuration explicitly specifies the one or more peripheral units accessible by a program, such as an operating system. Other peripheral units not specified in the I/O configuration are not accessible, thus, providing a secure environment.

A computer Input/Output system having a fabric, a control unit (CU) and a host computes including a channel, the channel having a channel port connected by a first link to a channel neighbor port of the fabric, and the control unit having a CU port connected by a second link to a CU neighbor port on the fabric. When an error is detected in the link or protocol between the channel and the control unit, after a retry of the failing operation is performed, error data are reported to the channel by the channel, the channel port, the channel neighbor port, the control unit, the CU port and the CU neighbor port and sent to the channel. The error data are provided to the host computer for analysis.

Validation of a re-initialized CTC connection between a first channel and a second channel is provided in a computing environment in which a CTC CU function can be provided in either channel after initialization of the CTC connection and can move from one channel to the other after re-initialization of the connection. After initialization, a newly formatted CDR having a device NED and a specific NEQ is stored. After re-initialization, a current CDR with the same format is obtained. The re-initialized CTC connection is validated if the stored set of NED and NEQ values match the current values, in any order.

An abstraction for storage class memory is provided that hides the details of the implementation of storage class memory from a program, and provides a standard channel programming interface for performing certain actions, such as controlling movement of data between main storage and storage class memory or managing storage class memory.

A computer system includes memory divided into a plurality of logical partitions (LPARs), each LPAR running one of a plurality of instances of an operating system (O/S). The system also includes a processor configured to run a hypervisor program to manage operation of the plurality of LPARs. The processor determines a reference I/O service time of an I/O operation on a server, measures an actual I/O service time of the operation, and determines a delay time of virtualization on the server based on the reference I/O service time and the actual I/O service time.
