TMSS10SCSI2ScanFile

Synopsis

TMSS10SCSI2ScanFile [-C changer device list] [-D tape drive elements ] [-I import/export elements] [-S storage elements] [-T transfer elements] [-V volume filter] [-e device failure error]

Description

TMSS10SCSI2ScanFile creates a Scan-File from the current inventory of SCSI attached Media Changer.

Options

  • -C Changer device list.
  • -D Exclude contents of tape drive elements (default = false).
  • -I Exclude contents of import/export elements (default = false).
  • -S Exclude contents of storage elements (default = false).
  • -T Exclude contents of transfer elements (default = false).
  • -V Volume Filter which can be used to filter the traversal of Customer, Media, Volume, repository and Flag values. (default = !(CLN*) )
  • -e Return error if any devices fail (default = false).

If an argument value starts with the value FI:, the value for that attribute will be read from the file name specified immediately after it. For example, if a file named ACME_volumes has the content ACME_*.*, specifying FI:/etc/ACME_volumes will have the same effect as -V ACME.*.*. Using FI: to refer to a file for an attribute value works for all attributes.

If the pattern being matched starts with *LIST: then rather than matching the literal value, each record in the file specified as *LIST:filename will be tested. If one matches the match will succeed.
