Example:

SCF> ADD SCSI $M8521, SENDTO STORAGE, PRIMARYLOCATION (110,2,2), PRIMARYSAC 2, LUN 0, PRIMARYPORT 1234567891234567

SCF> ADD TAPE $tape, SENDTO STORAGE, LOCATION (group, module, slot), SAC sac-id, PORTNAME 64-bit-portname, LUN lun-id

Example:

SCF> ADD TAPE $M8504, SENDTO STORAGE, LOCATION (110,2,2), SAC 2, LUN 0, PORT 50060B00002E69CD
