REFRESH CLUSTER

X X X X X CR

For an explanation of the symbols in the z/OS column, see Using commands in z/OS.

Use REFRESH CLUSTER to discard all locally held cluster information (including any autodefined channels that are in doubt), and force it to be rebuilt. This enables you to perform a "cold-start" on the cluster.

Notes:
  1. It is not normally necessary to issue a REFRESH CLUSTER command except in one of the following circumstances:
  2. Issuing REFRESH CLUSTER does not correct mistakes in cluster definitions, nor is it necessary to issue the command after such mistakes have been corrected.
  3. On UNIX systems, the command is valid only on AIX, HP-UX, Linux, and Solaris.
  4. On z/OS, the command fails if the channel initiator has not been started.
  5. On z/OS, any errors are reported to the console on the system where the channel initiator is running; they are not reported to the system that issued the command.
