When issuing SCF commands, you need not specify the object type of the device if either of these
conditions exists:
• You have fully specified the object name (no wild-card characters), and the device exists.
• You have already issued an SCF ASSUME command for the object type.
The ADAPTER Object
The ADAPTER object represents a specific ServerNet storage adapter that communicates with the
system and attached peripheral devices. For more information, see “Configuring and Managing
ServerNet Storage Adapters ” (page 153).
The ADAPTER object has this format:
$ZZSTO.#type.GRP-g.MOD-m.SLOT-s
$ZZSTO
is the storage subsystem manager.
#type
is the adapter type:
PMF and PMF-2PMF
IOMF and IOMF-2IOMF
6760 ServerNet device adapterSNDA
GRP-g.MOD-m.SLOT-s
is the physical location (group, module, and slot) of the adapter. g cannot have a leading
zero.
Wild-card characters are supported.
Examples
$ZZSTO.#PMF.GRP-1.MOD-1.SLOT-50
$ZZSTO.#IOMF.GRP-11.MOD-1.SLOT-55
$ZZSTO.#SNDA.SAC-1.GRP-1.MOD-1.SLOT-53
The CLIM Object
From the perspective of the storage subsystem, the CLIM object is similar to the ADAPTER object
because it provides communication connectivity between the system and attached, peripheral
storage devices. You can obtain information about the CLIM from the storage subsystem by using
the INFO CLIM $ZZSTO.clim-name or STATUS CLIM $ZZSTO.clim-name command. You also
can obtain status and info about the CLIM by using the INFO CLIM $ZZCIP.clim-name (or STATUS
CLIM $ZZCIP.clim-name).
The CLIM object exists in both the storage and CIP subsystem and certain management tasks like
adding a CLIM are only accessible through the CIP subsystem. One task, SWITCH CLIM, can be
done through either the CIP or storage subsystem. For information about adding or deleting a
CLIM, see the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual.
CLIMs can be configured to support encryption so that disk or tape devices connected to them can
be encrypted. For details about encryption, see the NonStop Volume Level Encryption Guide.
The CLIM object in the storage subsystem has this format:
