VEHDHPDDDPLPCUDV where:
VE - VE Port Number: This number represents the FCIP Tunnel number through its VE Port number.
HD - Host switch Domain number: This is a 1 byte hexidecimal value that represents the domain of the switch that the
FICON Channel is directly connected to.

FICON Channel is directly connected to.

cases, the event or message applicability is not limited to a Device Number or Control Unit or LPAR. Those messages
would include the following format of the FICON Path:
VEHDHPDDDPLPCU** - indicates that the event or message is specific to all Devices on a specific Control Unit.
VEHDHPDDDPLP**** - indicates that the event or message is specific to all Control Units and all Devices on those
control Units from a specific LPAR.
