Use the Resource List attributes to display the System Automation Manager's
view of resources and their different types of states in the SA z/OS subplex
denoted by the managed system name.
Managed
System ORIGINNODE
The
name of the
SA z/OS subplex,
that is, the group of systems controlled by a single primary
automation manager and
configured to the same XCF group. The valid format is a character
string with a maximum length of 32 bytes and the following syntax:
sysplex:saplex:SA
Resource
Name RSCNAME
The
name of an automation resource, that is, the first qualifier of the
resource name in
automation manager notation.
Resource
Type RSCTYPE
The
type of an automation resource, that is, the second qualifier of the
resource name in
automation manager notation.
The valid types are:
- APL The resource is an application, for example, a job.
- APG The resource is an application group.
- SYS The resource is a z/OS system.
- SYG The container resource that contains all the resources
in the z/OS system.
- GRP A group representing a physical sysplex (systems with
the same XCF group ID) or a logical sysplex (systems with different
XCF group IDs).
- IMG The resource is an application whose sole purpose is
to represent a system image.
- MTR The resource is a monitor resource.
System SYSNAME
The name of the system
where the resource resides. Blank for sysplex resources.
Observed
Status RSCOSTAT
The
current status of the resource as observed by the
automation agent.
Desired
Status RSCDSTAT
The
status that the
automation manager is
trying to move the resource to.
- Available The resource should be started (made available).
- Unavailable The resource should be stopped (made unavailable).
Automation
Status RSCASTAT
The
status representing the
automation agent's
automation for the resource.
- Unknown The automation manager does
not have a connection to the automation agent that
is responsible for the resource. No automation will be done.
- Sysgone The system that the resource resides on is no longer
an active member of the sysplex.
- Idle The automation agent that
is responsible for the resource is not doing anything for the resource.
No orders have been sent by the automation manager that
the agent is working on. The automation manager may
send the automation agent new
orders.
The automation agent posts
this status when setting the agent status to DOWN, RESTART, UP, ENDED,
AUTODOWN, CTLDOWN, STOPPED, BROKEN, INACTIVE, MOVED, or FALLBACK.
- Ordered The automation manager has
sent an order to the automation agent that
is responsible for the resource to either start or stop the resource.
The agent is working on the order.
- Busy The automation agent that
is responsible for the resource is processing the orders that were
sent by the automation manager,
or observing or assisting a start or stop process that was initiated
by another source. This status is set when the resource's observed
status becomes STARTING or STOPPING, and the previous automation status
was IDLE or ORDERED. This status is changed to IDLE if the resource
reaches an observed status other than STARTING or STOPPING.
The automation agent posts
this status when setting the agent status to STARTED, EXTSTART, ACTIVE,
RUNNING, ENDING, AUTOTERM, STOPPING, ABENDING or BREAKING.
- Denied The automation agent was
not allowed to process the last order that it received. The status
is changed to IDLE if the resource reaches an observed status of HARDDOWN,
SOFTDOWN or AVAILABLE.
The automation agent posts
this status if the agent automation flags do not permit the action.
- Problem The automation agent encountered
a problem while processing for the resource. This status is changed
to IDLE if the resource achieves an observed status of HARDDOWN, SOFTDOWN
or AVAILABLE.
Note: This status is posted by the automation agent when
setting the agent status to STARTED2, HALFDOWN, STUCK or ZOMBIE.
- Internal This means that the automation of the resource
is being handled internally. The resource does not have an automation agent that
is responsible for it.
Automation
Flag RSCAFLAG
Shows
the automation flag that is maintained by the
automation manager.
No automation is done for the resource by the
automation manager when
the flag is off.
- Yes Automation is allowed.
- No Automation is not allowed.
Hold
Flag RSCHFLAG
Shows
the hold flag that is maintained by the
automation manager.
- No Start the resource at IPL.
- Yes Hold the resource at IPL until it is released by operations.
Description RSCDESCR
Descriptive information
about the resource.
Start
Type RSCSTTYP
The
preset start type that will be used the next time the resource is
made available (started). This value is set by INGSET and will override
any TYPE value that is specified (or defaulted to) in the next INGREQ
start request.
Stop
Type RSCSPTYP
The
preset stop type that will be used the next time the resource is made
unavailable (shut down). This value is set by INGSET and will override
any TYPE value specified (or defaulted to) in the next INGREQ stop
request. However, a stop type of FORCE, wherever specified, will always
be honored.
Schedule RSCSCHED
The schedule (service
period) that the resource is linked to.
Trigger RSCTRIGG
The trigger that is associated
with the resource.
Compound
Status RSCCSTAT
The
compound status of the resource. This is a summary of all statuses
of the resource and provides a single value that tells you if the
resource is OK or if it has a problem. It can have one of the following
values:
Startability
Status RSCSSTAT
Indicates
whether or not it is possible to start the resource if the
automation manager is
asked to do so at this point in time. It can have one of the following
values:
- Unknown The startability status is not available for this
resource.
- Yes The resource can be started.
- No The resource cannot be started.
- Inhibited The resource cannot be started because of either
a problem with one of its supporting resources (start dependency),
or because automation has been prohibited.
- Denied The resource is not startable because automation
for this resource is denied. For example, this might be the case when
the system is suspended.
Group
Nature RSCGNAT
Applies
to group resources only and defines the type of the group.
- BASIC Indicates that the group contains a number of different
resources, all of which perform different roles to make a complete
application.
- MOVE Indicates that the group contains alternate instances
of the same resource.
- SERVER Indicates that the group contains a number of readily
interchangeable resources. The group has a target that tells the automation manager how
many of them should be made available for the group to be available.

category of the resource.
Subcategory
RSCSUBTY

Status RSCHSTAT
The
health status of the resource.
- Unknown The health status has not yet been determined.

- T Resource qualifies because of its runtokens.
