SET
disk-container-name
Changes the transportable characteristics of a disk drive.
Format
SET
disk-container-name
Parameters
disk-container-name
The name of the disk drive that will have its characteristics changed.
Description
Changes the characteristics of a disk drive.
Qualifiers
TRANSPORTABLE
NOTRANSPORTABLE (Default)
In normal operations, the controller makes a small portion of the disk inaccessible
to the host and uses this area to store metadata, which improves data reliability,
error detection, and recovery. This vast improvement comes at the expense of
transportability.
If NOTRANSPORTABLE is specified and there is no valid metadata on the unit,
the unit must be initialized.
Note
Digital recommends that you avoid specifying TRANSPORTABLE unless
transportability of disk drive or media is imperative and there is no other
way to accomplish moving the data.
Examples
1.
CLI> SET DISK130 TRANSPORTABLE
Sets DISK130 to transportable.
