Managing the Coupling FacilityWhen a structure ALTER processing completes, each connected system is postedby the Computer Associates security Coupling Facility service (CASECCFS) toallow those systems to update the size and utilization counts for the connectedstructure.Note: To display information about the current Coupling Facility XES structure,use the TSS MODIFY(STATUS(SYSPLEX)) command. The following sysplexrelated data will appear in message TSS9661I:CURRENT STRUCTURE SIZE—Current allocated sizeMAX STRUCTURE SIZE—Maximum structure sizeNUMBER OF STRUCTURE ENTRIES—Current entry countMAX NUMBER OF STRUCTURE EXTRIES—Maximum possible entry countAn example of message TSS9661I follows:TSS9661I CA-Top Secret SYSPLEX StatusCF CONNECT NAME(XE11 ) XCF GROUP(TSSXCF )STRUCTURE NAME(SECURITY3 ) ACTIVATEDCURRENT STRUCTURE SIZE( 10240K)MAX STRUCTURE SIZE( 16128K)NUMBER OF STRUCTURE ENTRIES( 132)MAX NUMBER OF STRUCTURE ENTRIES( 1223)Rebuilding the Coupling Facility StructureAfter you have updated the CFRM policy with new structure attributes such asSIZE or INITSIZE, you can use the SETXCF OS/390 operator command torebuild the Coupling Facility structure characteristics based on the new CFRMpolicy changes. The rebuild is performed with minimum disruption to theconnected systems.Use the following command to initiate the rebuild process based on the newCFRM policy structure attributes, while connected systems remain connected tothe structure.SETXCF START,REBUILD,STRNAME=strnameDuring the rebuild process, the system defers any requests that are issued whilethe structure is unavailable. These requests are processed after the rebuildprocess has completed.3–8 Cookbook
