Nomadic Disk Manager Configuration Statements

Example

The following is an example of fully configured paths for a segment. A segment must
have at least one path specified, or else a subsequent ADD SEGMENT command is
not allowed.

SET PATH P $SM01.#A 1 STRAIGHT
SET PATH B $SM01.#A 2 STRAIGHT
SET PATH M $SM02.#A 1 CROSSED
SET PATH MB $SM02.#A 2 CROSSED

SET VOL Statement

The SET VOL statement modifies the segment template to be used by a subsequent
ADD SEGMENT statement. The SET VOL statement adds a disk volume to a
segment. Each segment definition can have from 1 to 16 SET VOL statements for
segments containing internal 46xx disk drives or 1 to 64 SET VOL statements for
segments containing external 45xx disk drives.

name

specifies the name of a disk volume. This device must exist.

$ldev

specifies the logical device number of a disk volume.

On NonStop K-series servers,

$ldev

allows you to specify the disk volume if it

was configured as a demountable device. Demountable devices do not exist on
NonStop S-series servers.

$alt-name

specifies a syntactically valid device name that matches the name of the device
designated by $

ldev

.

SET VOL { $name }
{ $ldev [ ( $alt-name ) ] }

Caution.

Do not use the

$ldev

parameter. On NonStop S-series servers, logical device

numbers are arbitrarily assigned to a device when you configure the device and every time the
system is loaded.
