sg2 3 tape CPQNSD 5257 #VFHP02 slot 1, port 1 VFHP02 VT36
sg3 3 tape CPQNSD 5257 #VFHP03 slot 1, port 1 VFHP03 VT36
sg5 3 tape CPQNSD 5257 #VFHP04 slot 1, port 1 VFHP04 VT36
4. If you do not see devices, issue the following command to scan the devices and detect new
devices:
CLIMCMD clim_name lunmgr -s
5. If the devices are not listed again, issue the following command, which enables you to set
LUNs:
CLIMCMD clim_name lunmgr -a, VERBOSE
6. If steps 4 and 5 are successful, issue the SCF command to add a tape. Here is an example:
SCF ADD TAPE $VFHP00, SENDTO STORAGE, CLIM S1002531, LUN 1,
PRIMARYCPU 2,BACKUPCPU 2.
7. Start the virtual tape drive. If a 224 error occurs, delete the drive and make sure steps 4
and 5 are successful.
Validating backups from the NonStop server to the VTS server
To validate that the NonStop server can back up to configured virtual tape drives in VTS, you
must configure the NonStop server to add the virtual tape drive. Then, you can start the
virtual tape drive from the NonStop server.
Issue the following command on Integrity series servers to configure the virtual tape drive:
SCF ADD TAPE $VTD, SENDTO STORAGE, LOCATION (x,y,z), LUN #, SAC #,
PORTNAME WWN#, COMPRESSION OFF
where
$VTD The virtual tape drive name, such as $TAPE00. The name specified here must match
the value assigned to the ems_hostdevs_NSserver parameter in the VTS
configuration file.
LOCATION (x,y,z)
The location of the Fibre Channel ServerNet adapter (FCSA) in the Integrity server,
such as (110,3,2). This value depends on where the Fibre Channel cable is plugged
into the NonStop server.
LUN # Where the virtual tape drive is defined on VTS. This parameter is specified for Fibre
Channel connections only.
SAC # The Fibre Channel port on the FCSA. Valid values include 1-4. This parameter is
specified for Fibre Channel connections only.
PORTNAME WWN#
The World Wide Name (WWN) of the Fibre Channel port on VTS to which the virtual
tape drive is cabled, which is provided in the documentation shipped with VTS. An
example value is 210000E08B1AC519. Each Fibre Channel port has a unique WWN.
This parameter is specified for Fibre Channel connections only.
