2 Storage Subsystem Objects
This section describes how storage subsystem components are organized for
management through the SCF interface.
Object Names
Object names are the device or process names you use to specify a particular object in
an SCF command. Each object type has its own object-name format.
SCF Object Name Template
Most SCF commands accept more than one object name when placed in parentheses
and separated by commas, for example:
-> SWITCH DISK ($DATA01-P, $DATA01-M)
Using Wild-Card Characters in an Object Name
When you issue an SCF command, you can use wild-card characters in the object
name to indicate that the command affects multiple objects of the given object type.
Specify multiple objects by using either:
•
A single wild-card character
•
Text with one or more wild-card characters
