HP Interface Manager and Command View for Tape Libraries 3.7 User Guide

/ > set mgmt
/set/mgmt >
- or -
/ > set
/set > mgmt
/set/mgmt >
To execute a command that is available at a particular command level, either change to that
command level and enter the command, or enter a command sequence followed by the command
name. For example, if you were at the root command level and wanted to use the clock command
available at the show mgmt command level, you could do either of the following (in this example,
output of the clock command has been omitted):
/ > show mgmt clock
/ >
- or -
/ > show mgmt
/show/mgmt > clock
/show/mgmt >
NOTE: Executing a command does not change the current command level, except in the case
of changing the Interface Manager mode. Refer to Interface Manager mode (page 184) for more
information.
Abbreviating commands
All commands can be abbreviated provided that the abbreviation is unique. For example, from
the root command level, se mo is equivalent to set mode. However, se m is ambiguous because
m at the root command level could mean either mgmt or mode.
Device numbering conventions
In some instances, Command View TL numbers devices differently from how they are numbered
on the tape library front panel. For example, if the library contains eight drives, the ESL9000 Series
library front panel refers to those drives as drive 0 through 7. Command View TL refers to the same
drives as drive 1 through 8.
Table 34 (page 183) shows the device numbering conventions used by Command View TL and by
the library front panel (when applicable).
