Specifying Device Names
You can identify a device with either a fully or a partially qualified device name. To
specify more than one device in a command, you can use wild cards in a device name,
or you can use a device name list. However, you cannot use wild cards to specify a
device name in an ADD command.
Fully Qualified Device Names
A fully qualified device name includes the system and device name.
\system-name
is a system name as described in Fully Qualified Disk-File Names on page 2-4. For
devices residing on a system that is not part of a network, omit \system-name
from the device name.
$device-name
is the name of a logical device. This name can be one to seven alphanumeric
characters long, the first of which must be alphabetic.
Examples
=ADD DEVICE \apex.$lp1
=INFO DEVICE \apex.$lp*
=FREEZE DEVICE \tops.$lazer*
Partially Qualified Device Names
For devices that can be accessed over a network, a partially qualified device name is a
device name without a system name. SAFECOM expands the partially qualified name
by adding the current default system name.
$device-name
is expanded to \system-name.$device-name.
\system-name
is the current default system name.
[\system-name.]$device-name
