StorageTek 6 manual SCRPOol, Range, Notes, Label, Hostid

SCRPOol

RANGE

range specifies the volume serial numbers which the subpool represents. Range start and end values are separated by a single dash (-). Multiple ranges may be specified separating each range by commas.

Notes:

1.The range of volume serial numbers must be unique for each subpool; that is, a volume serial number cannot be used in more than one subpool range.

2.Make sure when you are coding multiple ranges of tapes that you do not specify the RANGE parameter on different SCRPOol control statements. If more than one SCRPOol statement has been specified, the HSC reads only the last RANGE setting it encounters and loads only that range. All other ranges are ignored.

StorageTek recommends that you specify multiple ranges, separated by commas, on one SCRPOol control statement if possible.

LABEL

type specifies the label type associated with the applicable subpool. Types include:

SL

standard label

NL

no label

AL

ANSI label

NSL

nonstandard label

HOSTID

optionally, defines the hosts that are valid for this subpool. Multiple host-lists may be specified, separating each host-list value with a comma. Default HOSTID is ALL. If you need to define the same subpool name on some but not all hosts, you may duplicate the SCRPOol statement changing the HOSTID parameter as necessary (see examples). Optionally, you may use separate PARMLIB data sets for each host, but this is not recommended.
