IMPROVED METHOD TO REMOVE PATHS

We did the test to verify the effect of RECOVERY PATH_SCOPE=CU. The test case of one path busy got the expected result. 2-3 seconds after 'VARY ONLINE', the path of all devices under the same CU got offline. However, the two paths busy case did not work well. The first device to which VARY ONLINE was done resumed to work after 2-3 seconds, but other devices under the CU were getting MIH messages IOS071I repeatedly, and the path didn't get offline until path busy situation was recovered manually.

We want to request to improve remove paths method. For the detail, please refer to PMR 00459,6V5,760. IOS development have already agreed to improve this behavior in future release.

    Hello. Do you have any update on this ? We strongly hope this enhancement will be implemented on next z/OS release.
