StorageTek 6 manual Volume Report, Medequal, Nonmedeq, NOEXTernal, EXCLude, Notes, Voldata

Volume Report

MEDEQUAL

specifies that volumes for which the media types of the VOLATTR and the VAR are equal match the criteria.

NONMEDEQ

specifies that volumes for which the media types of the VOLATTR and the VAR are not equal match the criteria.

NOEXTernal

NOEXTernal specifies that volumes without an external label match the criteria.

For example, INCLUDE(SEL,ERR) tentatively chooses only selected and errant volumes for the report. INCLude parameters are applied before EXCLude parameters in volume selection.

EXCLude

optionally specifies the criteria for excluding volume information from the report. Any volumes that match one or more of the exclusion criteria are excluded from the report.

EXCLude parameter values are the same as INCLude values, except for the ‘‘*’’ parameter (see the INCLude options list above).

As an example, EXCL(NONSEL) excludes nonselected volumes from the report.

Notes:

1.INCLude parameters are applied before EXCLude parameters in volume selection.

2.Parameter values are not checked for the existence of their opposite values (for example, ‘‘SEL’’ is still flagged even if ‘‘NONSEL’’ is specified, and vice versa).

3.Positive attributes are applied before negative attributes (for example, SCR is applied before NONSCR).

4.EXCLude is not available if Volume Report is running under SCP.

VOLDATA

optionally specifies that a flat file, not a volume report, is to be produced.

When this keyword is specified, the utility attempts to write the volume data to a data set defined by the SLSCDATA DD statement.

If both VOLDATA and CDSDATA (see below) are specified, a single flat file is produced that contains volume and non-volume information.

Note: VOLDATA is not available if Volume Report is running under SCP.
