Both demand and spontaneous PNC interchanges are prevented by the
following conditions:
■ The standby PNC is busied out.
■ The PNCs are locked by means of the
set pnc lock
or
reset PNC
override-and-lock
commands.
■ For five minutes after a spontaneous PNC interchange, or for 30 seconds
after a demand interchange, an anti-thrashing mechanism prevents
subsequent interchanges unless the override-and-lock option is used.
■ If the state of health of the standby PNC is worse than that of the active,
the command will abort unless the override-and-lock option is used.
■ If the standby PNC has not completed a global refresh since it was last
initialized or released, the reset will abort unless the override-and -lock
option is used.
Note the following caution regarding the use of the override-and-lock option.
See
status pnc
for details of how to obtain and interpret the states of health and
other current information about the PNCs. For a more complete explanation of
PNC duplication and interchanges, see PNC-DUP in Chapter 9.
