Distributed DVIPA Targets Attributes
Use these attributes to view information about the distributed dynamic virtual IP address (DVIPA) targets.
Active Connections The current number of active connections for the DVIPA and port that were distributed to the target stack.
Address Space ID The MVS address space ID of the address space that opened the socket. This is a 4-digit hexadecimal number.
Application Server Name The job name of the application server.
Delta Connections The number of connections for the DVIPA and port that were distributed to the target stack during the most recent time interval.
Distribution Port Function An indication of certain attributes of the distribution function for the DVIPA and port. This is a 1-byte hexadecimal number, where the bits have the following values and bit 0 is the leftmost bit.
- Bit 0 (distBaseWlm): Corresponds to the DISTMETHOD BASEWLM parameter on the VIPADISTRIBUTE TCP/IP profile statement.
- Bit 1 (distRoundRobin): Corresponds to the DISTMETHOD ROUNDROBIN parameter on the VIPADISTRIBUTE TCP/IP profile statement.
- Bit 2 (targetpathInactive): Indicates that the distributor cannot send data packets to the target stack because no path to the target stack exists.
- Bit 3 (distServerWlm): Corresponds to the DISTMETHOD SERVERWLM parameter on the VIPADISTRIBUTE TCP/IP profile statement.
- Bit 4 (local): Indicates that the local target stack is used for outbound connections unless the local target stack cannot process the connection.
- Bit 5 (distWeightedActive): Corresponds to the DISTMETHOD WEIGHTEDACTIVE parameter on the VIPADISTRIBUTE TCP/IP profile statement.
- Bit 6 (distTargetControlled): Corresponds to the DISTMETHOD TARGCONTROLLED parameter on the VIPADISTRIBUTE TCP/IP profile statement. This distribution method can be used only with tier 1 targets, such as DataPower® appliances, that are not z/OS® tier 1 targets.
For example, the hexadecimal value X'A0', which is the same as the binary value B'10100000', indicates that the 0 (distBaseWlm) and 2 (targetpathInactive) bits are set.
DVIPA The dynamic virtual IP address.
DVIPA Port The DVIPA port.
DVIPA Port String The DVIPA port, formatted as a string.
DVIPA DVIPA Port For NetView product internal use. This attribute is the concatenation of the DVIPA and DVIPA Port attribute values, which is used to depict the x-axis in the bar chart view. The format of the concatenated values is dvipa:dvipa_port, where dvipa is the DVIPA value and dvipa_port is the DVIPA Port value.
Dynamic XCF IP Address The dynamic XCF IP address of the target TCP/IP stack.
Dynamically Added Port An indication of whether the target port was dynamically added to distribution or explicitly specified. The following values are valid:
- Yes: The port was dynamically added.
- No: The port was explicitly specified.
Hot Standby Rank When the distribution method is HOTSTANDBY, an indication of the backup target that is selected if the preferred target becomes unavailable. The backup target with the highest rank is used. Valid values are in the range 1 - 254; the default value is 1.
Hot Standby Server Status The server status when the distribution method is HOTSTANDBY. The following values are valid:
- Backup (0): Specifies that this is currently a backup (hot-standby) server.
- Active (1): Specifies that this is currently the active server.
Hot Standby Server Type The server type when the distribution method is HOTSTANDBY. The following values are valid:
- Backup (2): Specifies that this server is a backup target. A backup target is initially a hot-standby target. Connections are not distributed to hot-standby targets. If the active target becomes unavailable, the distributor switches targets and one of the hot-standby targets becomes the active target.
- Preferred (1): Specifies that this server is the preferred target. If AUTOSWITCHBACK is configured, the preferred target is the active target if it is available and has had no health problems. If the active target becomes unavailable, the distributor switches to a hot-standby target, the active target becomes a hot-standby target, and the selected hot-standby target becomes the active target.
Listening Servers The number of servers at the port on the target system that are ready to service connection requests.
Origin Node The parent node of the workspace.
Sysplex Name The name of the sysplex.
System ID The SMF system ID.
TCPIP Host Name The short TCP/IP host name of the target stack.
TCPIP Job Name The TCP/IP job name of the target stack.
Total Connections The number of connections for the DVIPA and port that were distributed to the target stack.
Update Time The date and time that the data was last updated. By default, this value is displayed as MM/DD/YY hh:mm:ss, where MM is the month, DD is the day, YY is the year, hh is the hour, mm is the minute, and ss is the second.
XCF Group Name The XCF name that is used by this TCP/IP stack when joining the sysplex.
zOS Image Name The name of the z/OS operating system on which the target stack resides.
