START SCSI Command
This subsection describes the details about the START SCSI command.
Use the START SCSI command to make a stopped Open SCSI device or a
path to an Open SCSI device accessible to user processes.
The command syntax is:
START SCSI {$ device-name | $ device-name-path}
Wild-card characters are supported.
Examples Using START SCSI
The following are examples of the START SCSI command:
• To start all Open SCSI devices on the system (that are in the proper
state to start), type:
-> START SCSI $*
• To start the backup path to the Open SCSI device $DEV0, type:
-> START $DEV00-B
START SCSI Considerations
Before using the START SCSI command, consider the following:
• Use the SCF STATUS SCSI command to verify that an Open SCSI
device has been started.
• If the START SCSI command is failing, see the Himalaya S-Series
Hardware Support Guide for troubleshooting ideas.
