Sysdiag
NOTE Version 5.5 and 6.0 are supported for the libraries, but use the STM tool
for version 6.5 (see “Support Tools Manager (STM)” on page 4-36).
Sysdiag is the MPE/iX support tool, and provides a consistent user
interface for support of tape libraries, as well as many other types of
peripheral devices.
Sysdiag is a licensed-use tool, so a user must first know and enter a
diagnostics password. Enter a password by typing in the following
command at the MPE/iX prompt:
:suplicen
Use of sysdiag also assumes knowledge of the ldevs at which the
components to be supported are located. To start sysdiag, type in the
following command at the MPE/iX prompt:
:sysdiag
This command will bring up the Diagnostic User Interface (DUI) prompt.
Two diagnostics are available to support DLT libraries:
• SCSITAC (SCSI Tape Autochanger) for support of library robotics
• SCSIDLT for support of DLT tape drives
SCSITAC and SCSIDLT are divided into parts called “sections.” To use
either of these diagnostics, enter the diagnostic name, ldev where the
device is located, and section to be run at the UI prompt. For example:
DUI> scsitac ldev=6 sc=4
