VI. EZ-SCSI UTILITY
(Removable Media)
Removable Media Manager (rmvtool)
Your copy of Adaptec EZSCSI may include the DOS-based rmvtool utility. If you
have this utility, you can use it to lock, unlock, and eject removable media—for
example, a cartridge in a SyQuest removable cartridge drive. You run rmvtool by
entering commands at the DOS prompt. Here are the commands for a removable
drive installed at SCSI ID 5:
• To lock the disk media: rmvtool/lock/ID=5
• To unlock the disk media: rmvtool/unlock/ID=5
• To eject the disk media: rmvtool/eject/ID=5
NOTE: Some devices do not support the Eject command.
If the device is at another SCSI ID, type that number instead of 5. If you are not sure
which device is at which SCSI ID, type rmvtool/? at the DOS prompt and press
Enter. A list of SCSI devices appears. (Devices that support removable media are
marked.)
If your computer has two or more host adapters, you need to add another number to
the command. For example, if you have two host adapters, one of them is host adapter0
and the other is host adapter1. (This information appears when you type the rmvtool/
? command.) So if the removable disk drive is at SCSI ID 3 on host adapter1, you
would enter this command to lock the disk media:
rmvtool/lock/ID=1:3
You can issue rmvtool commands for two or more devices, and you can add the
commands to the autoexec.bat file. If you add this command line to your autoexec.bat
file, rmvtool locks the media in the two devices when the computer boots. This
prevents the disk media from being removed until another command is issued to
unlock it.
rmvtool/lock/ID=4/ID=5
