DriveWipe

Initializes a drive: wipes it of all data. Drive must be offline

Set syntax: DriveWipe [Destination Sled] [Dest Drive] Requires a SaveConfiguration Restart command Get syntax: DriveCopyStatus

ECC

Specifies or displays whether ECC is enabled or not. If ECC is not available, an ECC invalid message will be returned.

Default: enabled

Set syntax: set ECC [enabled disabled]

If enabled, SaveConfiguration Restart command required If disabled, SaveConfiguration command required

Get syntax: get ECC

LUNInfo

Displays information about all LUNs (logical unit numbers) or detailed information about a specific LUN. Do not specify a LUN to get information about all LUNs. Specify a LUN to get detailed information about that individual LUN. For examples, see LUNInfo on page 39.

Get syntax: get LUNInfo [LUN]

LUNState

Sets the LUN to the specified state. May be used to facilitate removal and insertion of sleds and RAID groups during power up/power down of sleds.

Default: online

Set syntax: set LUNState [LUN number] [onlineoffline]

Get syntax: get LUNState [LUN number]

IdeTransferRate

Sets the DMA mode transfer rate for all devices. Choices are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4

Default: 4

Set syntax: set IdeTransferRate [0 1 2 3 4] Requires a SaveConfiguration Restart command Get syntax: get IdeTransferRate

IdeWriteCache

Sets write caching for all drives.

Default: enabled

Set syntax: set IdeWriteCache [enabled disabled] Requires a SaveConfiguration Restart command Get syntax: get IdeWriteCache

InquiryData

Sets/displays the SCSI media changer (MC) & tape drive (TD) inquiry data returned by the Diamond Virtual Tape device.

MC Vendor ID: 1 - 8 chars

MC Product ID: 1 - 16 chars

MC Revision: 1 - 4 chars

TD Vendor ID: 1 - 8 chars

TD Product ID: 1 - 16 chars

TD Revision: 1 - 4 chars

Set syntax: set InquiryData [MC Vendor ID] [MC Product ID] [MC Revision] [TD Vendor ID] [TD Product ID] [TD Revision]

Requires a SaveConfiguration Restart command Get syntax: get InquiryData

MediumType

Sets or displays the medium type returned by the mode pages. Use the command InquiryData to change the inquiry data displayed. Choices are

DLT/Diamond = 0x85 SDLT = 0x86

LTO = 0x00

AIT = 0x34

Default: 0x85

Set syntax: set MediumType [medium type] Requires a SaveConfiguration Restart command Get syntax: get MediumType

PartitionInfo

Displays Partition information for the selected partitions. See PartitionInfo on page 39 for examples.

Immediate command: PartitionInfo [activeplanned] [Virtual Drive ID] [Partition ID]

QuickTape

Configures the Diamond-VT as a Virtual Tape device. Specify the RAID level, either RAID5 or RAID10, the number of tape volumes, enable ZoneState and specify whether Hot Spare sleds are enabled.

The system will determine the optimal number of Virtual Devices based on the number of tape volumes. Hot Spares are not available for all Virtual Tape configurations. You must designate enabled to allow Hot Spare sleds or disabled to forgo Hot Spare sleds

You may specify the first four to six alpha-numeric characters of a tape bar code, used by tape backup
