Seek Cylinder
Description:
The Seek Cylinder command transfers the track address to the
control unit. The format of the seek address parameter is (00CCHH), where (00) is
2 bytes of binary zeros and (CCHH) is a 4-byte track address.
The control unit saves the seek address to do a cache directory search or to
position the actuator at a later time.
Chaining and Restrictions:
The Seek Cylinder command is not valid in the
domain of a Locate Record or Locate Record Extended. If this command is in the
domain of a Locate Record or Locate Record Extended it is rejected with unit check
status. The sense data contains command reject with format 0, message 2.
If the file mask inhibits Seek Cylinder commands (bit 3 is not 0), the command is
terminated with unit check status. The sense data includes File Protected.
The control unit requests a 6-byte set of address parameters from the channel. If
the channel sends fewer than 6 bytes, the command is rejected with unit check
status. The sense data contains command reject with format 0, message 3.
The track address is checked for validity for the current access authorization and
the logical volume type. (See Appendix A, "Device Characteristics" on page A-1.)
If the seek address parameter is not valid, the command is rejected with unit check
status. The sense data contains command reject with format 0, message 4.
If the Seek Cylinder command was preceded in the channel program by a Define
Extent command, and the seek address is outside the defined extent, the command
is terminated with unit check status (file protected).
Ending Status:
After the control unit receives a valid parameter, it checks the
cache directory to determine if the track is in cache; it saves the track address and
presents channel end and device end status.
The track accessing operation is deferred as described under “Seek Operations” on
page 4-46.
