Section 1: General Information
For the Integrity NonStop server:
The
LUN
attribute specifies the logical unit address of the target. LUNs 0 to 15 are valid.
The
SAC
attribute specifies the deck on the adapter.
The
PORTNAME
attribute specifies the worldwide name address of the tape target (
WWN OF
THE DEVICE TO BE CONNECTED
).
For NonStop servers, issue the SCF
INFO TAPE
command after the
ADD TAPE
command is
finished to verify that the tape drive has been properly configured. For example:
->INFO TAPE $TAPE0, DETAIL
STORAGE – Detailed Info TAPE configuration $TAPE0
Adapter Name .............................$ZZSTO.PMF.GRP-2.MOD-1.SLOT-55
*Adapter Location (Group,Module,Slot) .....(2,1,55)
BackupCpu ................................1
*Compression ..............................OFF
*Density ..................................2.4-4.8 KB/mm
*HighPin ..................................ON
*MaxOpens .................................4
PrimaryCpu ...............................0
Product ..................................5140/5142
*Program ..................................$SYSTEM.SYSTEM.OTPROCP
*RecSize ..................................2048
*StartState ...............................STARTED

Example of a SCF info tape command (5142 DDS-3 Drive)
For NonStop servers, the
ADD TAPE
command adds a 5242 tape drive connected to the PMF CRU
in group
02
, module
1
and slot
50
to the system configuration using the name
$TAPE1
:
-
>ADD TAPE $TAPE1, SENDTO STORAGE, LOCATION (2, 1, 50)),&
->&PRIMARYCPU 2, BACKUPCPU 3, PRODUCT 5242
The syntax is slightly different for Integrity NonStop servers:
-
>ADD TAPE $TAPE1, SENDTO STORAGE, LOCATION (110, 3, 2),LUN0, SAC2, PORTNAME wwn of device to be connected
->&PRIMARYCPU 2, BACKUPCPU 3, PRODUCT 5242
For more information on the
ADD
and
INFO
commands, see
the SCF Reference Manual for the
Storage Subsystem.
Example 2:
Changing the Values of Tape Drive Attributes
Use the SCF
ALTER TAPE
command to change the attribute values for a tape drive attached to
your system. The
ALTER
command changes only the attributes that are specified in the command.
Other attributes remain as they were before you issued the command.
This example of the
ALTER
command changes the value of the compression attribute for the 5242
or 5242-ACL tape drive
$TAPE0
to
OFF
and then issues the SCF
INFO
command to check the
change has taken place:
>ALTER TAPE $TAPE0, COMPRESSION OFF
>INFO TAPE $TAPE0
STORAGE – Info TAPE configuration $TAPE0
