Command Object Requirements

• SET

– This required object defines the service set containing the virtual tape library that

contains the drive to be modified. X is the numeric index of the service set.

• LIB

– This required object is the virtual tape library that contains the drive to be modified. X

is the numeric index of the library.

NOTE: This is the library object name, not the user-defined name of the library. You can

find the LIBX object name for a library using the “vtl show library list” (page 170) command.

• DRV

– This required object is the drive to be modified. X is a numeric index which uniquely

defines the cartridge.

Command Parameter Requirements

• DriveEmulation – This optional parameter defines the type of physical drive the virtual tape

drive will emulate. The values are defined in the Command Syntax. If not defined, the current

value remains unchanged.

• DrivePort – This optional parameter defines which physical port on the node will be used by

the virtual drive and is only valid if the library interface is Fibre Channel. If the virtual drive

interface is not Fibre Channel, defining this will generate an error. The value is a number

corresponding to the ports as defined by the vtl show ports command. If not defined,

the current value remains unchanged.

• iSCSIName – This optional parameter defines the iSCSI initiator name and is only valid if the

interface is iSCSI. If the VTL’s interface is not iSCSI, defining this will generate an error. The

value is a text string with a maximum of 224 characters. If not defined, the current value

remains unchanged.

• WWPN – This optional parameter defines the worldwide port name if the virtual drive uses

Fibre Channel ports. If the virtual drive interface is not Fibre Channel, defining this will generate

an error. The value must be a worldwide port name. If not defined, the current value remains

unchanged.

• WWNN – This optional parameter defines the worldwide node name of the drive if the virtual

drive uses Fibre Channel ports. If the virtual drive does not use Fibre Channel, defining this

will generate an error. The value must be a valid worldwide name. If not defined, the current

value remains unchanged.

Requirements for Command Execution

• The command entry must conform to the command syntax.

• All object values must be valid; see the object descriptions for details.

• All parameter values must be valid; see the parameter descriptions for details.
