Implementing Availability Maps › Access Availability Map Definitions

Access Availability Map Definitions

You can define as many maps for a system image as you want. After the map is defined, you can define timer information and attach services or resources to the map. Use the Availability Maps option to create and maintain availability map definitions.

The service image and each system image have its own set of availability maps.

To access service availability map definitions

1. Enter /SADMIN.A at the prompt.

   The Availability Map List appears.

To access resource availability map definitions

1. Enter /RADMIN at the prompt.

   The Resource Administration menu appears.

2. Enter A at the prompt and the name and version of the system image that owns the maps you want to create or access, and then press Enter.

   The Availability Map List panel appears. This panel lists the availability maps for the specified service or system image.

Note: To display the maps owned by another system image or resource, you can enter another name (resources only) or version number at the top of this panel.

Temporary Availability Maps

A temporary availability map is an availability map created from the status monitor to override the current map attached to a service or resource. A temporary map has an expiry time when the map is deleted automatically. You can use a temporary map as any other map, remembering that it has a defined life time.
