STATEMATCHPREFIX Parameter

The STATEMATCHPREFIX parameter controls whether SSM prerequisite and subrequisite processing uses the defined UP and DOWN states for a resource table as states that must match exactly or as prefix values that must match only up to the length of the state names.

If the current state of a prerequisite resource is ACTIVEX and the defined SSM UP state for the resource is ACTIVE, then a NO value for STATEMATCHPREFIX means the prerequisite resource is not in its UP state (ACTIVEX ¬= ACTIVE). If the value of STATEMATCHPREFIX is YES, the prerequisite resource is in its UP state since ACTIVE contains the first six letters of ACTIVEX.

NO
