MONITOR SWAP MOUNT statement
The MONITOR SWAP MOUNT Statement Syntax is as follows:
MOUNT | SWAPUNIT={(uuu1[,uuu2[,…]])|(uuuu1[,uuuu2[…]])} |
MONITOR SWAP MOUNT Statement
One or more MOUNT SWAPUNIT= statements follow the MONITOR TYPE=SWAP statement. Each specifies an offline target device or set of devices to be monitored to see if one or more of them is selected as the target of a swap by an FDRPAS SWAP task on another system image.
The MONITOR task automatically terminates if it detects that all the devices you have specified on the MOUNT statement have been swapped or are no longer offline unless DYNMON=YES is specified on the MONITOR TYPE=SWAP statement. With dynamic monitoring, the devices to be monitored are obtained from the SWAP, SWAPDUMP, or SIMSWAPMON task.
MONITOR SWAP MOUNT statement operands
SWAPUNIT=

uuuu or uuuuu
Specifies the z/OS device addresses of the target devices to be monitored. The address can be specified as a 4-digit or 5-digit (hex) z/OS device address, or it can be specified as 1, 2, or 3 digits with a trailing asterisk (*); in this case all offline z/OS DASD addresses starting with the prefix specified are monitored. To monitor multiple devices or ranges of devices (by prefix), specify them in parentheses, separated by commas, but you cannot specify more than 255 sub-parameters (device addresses or address prefix ranges) within the parentheses. If you need to specify more than 255 addresses or prefixes, then you can use more than one MOUNT SWAPUNIT= statement. The total number of devices to monitor can be up to 8190. Only devices that are offline and accessible at the time the MONITOR task starts are monitored; if a device is placed offline or becomes accessible after the MONITOR task starts, it is not monitored.
