Notes:
- The ELEMENT parameter is valid only for drives in SCSI libraries.
Parameters
- library_name (Required)
- Specifies the name of the library to which the drive is assigned.
- drive_name (Required)
- Specifies the name that is assigned to the drive.
- DEVIce
- Specifies the name of the device (that is, the special filename) that
corresponds to the drive. For example, you might specify
/dev/rmt/c0t3d0BEST. This parameter is optional. See
the DEVICE parameter description of the DEFINE DRIVE command for special
device names.
- ELEMent
- Specifies the new value to be used for the drive's element address
within a SCSI library. This parameter is optional and is only valid for
a drive located in a SCSI library. To find the element address for your
library configuration, access the TSM Web site at:
http://www.tivoli.com/tsm
. At this URL, click on Product Details, click on
Supported Device Lists, click on your product, and then the
appropriate device.
- CLEANFREQuency
- Specifies how often TSM activates drive cleaning. You must have a
cleaner cartridge checked into the library's volume inventory to use this
parameter. This parameter is optional. The default is
NONE.
Note: | Use TSM-controlled drive cleaning only for SCSI libraries that do not have
automatic cleaning support in their device hardware.
|
- NONE
- Specifies that TSM does not track cleaning for this drive. Use this
parameter for libraries that have their own automatic cleaning.
- ASNEEDED
- Specifies that TSM loads the drive with a checked-in cleaner cartridge
only when a drive reports to the device driver that it needs cleaning.
- value
- Specifies (in gigabytes) how much data will process on the drive before
TSM loads the drive with a cleaner cartridge. TSM resets the
gigabytes-processed counter each time it loads a cleaner cartridge in the
drive.
Examples
Task
Update the drive named DRIVE3 located in the library named AUTO by changing
the element address to 119.
- Command:
- update drive auto drive3 element=119
