RESTART CU=

This command emulates the Power OFF/Power ON of a real tape control unit. The command stops all Virtual Device activity for the specified Virtual Control Unit. The command also shuts down the corresponding SVTSAS subaddress space and automatically starts it again. The Virtual Devices are not varied OFFLINE or ONLINE during this process. You can issue this command to reset error conditions affecting some Virtual Devices, or when executing the SVTn R U command does not clear the Virtual Device. Most error conditions are cleared by restarting the affected Virtual Control Units, minimizing the need to restart CA Vtape.

Syntax
SVTn Restart CU=n

Where n is the Virtual Control Unit subaddress space number (SVTSAS.svtnVn where svtn is the subsystem id and n is the control unit number).
