Manage I/O Operations

CA OPS/MVS Switch Operations Facility (SOF) simplifies the management of your I/O configuration, particularly the management of Enterprise Systems Connections (ESCON) and FICON switches.

Note: Each switch to be managed by SOF must have the Control Unit Port (CUP) feature installed, and the HCD/IOCP configuration must include IODEVICE and CNTLUNIT definitions for the switch. SOF uses the CUP to send commands and queries to the switch.
