Nomadic Disk Manager Configuration Statements
SET VOL Statement 
The SET VOL statement modifies the segment template to be used by a subsequent 
ADD SEGMENT statement. The SET VOL statement adds a disk volume to a segment.  
Each segment definition can have from one to eight SET VOL statements. 
name 
specifies the name of a disk volume. This device must exist. 
$ldev  
specifies the logical device number of a disk volume. 
On NonStop Himalaya K-series servers, 
$ldev allows you to specify the disk 
volume if it was configured as a demountable device. Demountable devices do not 
exist on NonStop Himalaya S-series servers. 
$alt-name 
specifies a syntactically valid device name that matches the name of the device 
designated by $ldev. 
Example
The following is an example of a full set of eight volumes for a segment. You must 
specify at least one volume for each segment, or else a subsequent ADD SEGMENT 
command is not allowed. 
SET VOL $NOMAD0 
SET VOL $NOMAD1 
SET VOL $NOMAD2 
SET VOL $NOMAD3 
SET VOL $NOMAD4
SET VOL $NOMAD5 
SET VOL $NOMAD6 
SET VOL $NOMAD7
SET VOL { $name } 
 { $ldev [ ( $alt-name ) ] } 
Caution. Do not use the $ldev parameter. On NonStop Himalaya S-series servers, logical 
device numbers are arbitrarily assigned to a device when you configure the device and every 
time the system is loaded.
