Sun Microsystems Virtual Tape Library manual Get supported virtual libraries

Virtual devices / Clients

‐v (‐‐vdevid) is required to specify the virtual device ID.

A virtual device cannot be deleted if any of the following conditions apply:

■The specified virtual device is a virtual tape library or a virtual tape drive and there are clients currently connected to the library or drive.

■The specified virtual device is a virtual tape configured for replication, unless the ‐f (‐‐force) option is used.

■The specified virtual device is the only existing virtual tape drive in the parent virtual tape library.

‐d (‐‐delete‐virtual‐tapes) is an option to delete all of the existing virtual tapes from a virtual tape library, a standalone virtual tape drive, or a loaded virtual tape drive selected for deletion. By default, the virtual tapes are moved to the vault, or, if a loaded virtual tape drive is selected, back to the library.

‐f (‐‐force) is an option to force the deletion of a virtual tape configured for replication. The corresponding virtual tape replica will not be deleted or promoted.

‐X (‐‐rpc‐timeout) is an option to specify a number between 1 and 30000 seconds for the RPC timeout. The system will retry the command for the amount of time specified if the server does not respond. The default RPC timeout is 30 seconds.

Get supported virtual libraries

iscon getsupportedvlibs -s <server-name> [-u <username> -p <password>] [-l [-t <vlib-type>] [-c][-M <output-delimiter>] ] [-X <rpc-timeout>]

iscon getsupportedvlibs --server-name=<server-name>

[--	server-username=<username> --server-password=<password>]
[--	longlist [--vlib-type=<vlib-type>] [	--compatible-drive-list]
[--	output-delimiter=<output-delimiter>]	] [--rpc-timeout=<rpc-timeout>]

Description:

This command retrieves information about all supported virtual tape libraries.

‐l (‐‐longlist) can be specified to get the supported library information in a long format. The default is to display the information in a list format.

‐t (‐‐vlib‐type) is an option with the ‐l (‐‐longlist) option to get the detail library information for a specific library. The format for the <vlib‐type> is: <vendorID>:<productID>. For example, ADIC:Scalar 100

‐c (‐‐compatible‐drive‐list) is an option to display the compatible drives in a tabular format instead of the default long format.

‐M (‐‐output‐delimiter) can also be specified with the ‐l (‐‐longlist) option to replace the linefeed with the specified delimiter. The maximum length of the delimiter is 8.
