VolumeNumber, Mark-unreliable | HP File System Extender (FSE)

2.9 NAME

•VolumeNumber...

A non–negative integer value or a sequence of such values which repre- sent(s) the position(s) of FSE medium volume(s) on the medium layout.

•– –mark–unreliable

Disallow writing to the FSE medium with barcode Barcode. From that

moment on, the data on the medium can only be read. This is done by setting the status of this medium in the Resource Management Database to UNRELIABLE. Note that unless additional option – –forceis speciﬁed, the command demands FSE administrator’s conﬁrmation before performing this operation. Default answer to the conﬁrmation question is "No"

•– –mark–unusable

Disallow reading from and writing to the FSE medium with barcode Bar- code. From that moment on, the data on the medium can be neither read nor medium can be written to. This is done by setting the status of this medium in the Resource Management Database to UNUSABLE. Note that unless additional option – –forceis speciﬁed, the command demands FSE admin- istrator’s conﬁrmation before performing this operation. Default answer to the conﬁrmation question is "No"

•– –mark–good

Make the FSE medium with barcode Barcode fully operational for normal usage. From this moment on, the data on the medium can be read and the medium can be written to. This is done by setting the status of this medium in the Resource Management Database to GOOD. Note that unless additional option – –forceis speciﬁed, the command demands FSE admin- istrator’s conﬁrmation before performing this operation. Default answer to the conﬁrmation question is "No"

•– –close–volume

Mark speciﬁed FSE medium volume as full and set its status in the Re- source Management Database accordingly. This operation also saves Fast Recovery Information (FRI) to the end part of the medium volume and to the medium’s system volume, if it is present. If writing FRI to medium fails an appropriate warning is displayed.
