NAME fujitsulmf - The Fujitsu LMF Automated Tape Library AVAILABILITY SUNWsamfs DESCRIPTION fujitsulmf is the Sun QFS and SAM-QFS software interface to the Fujitsu LMF library. This interface utilizes the LMF interface supplied by Fujitsu. For more information on LMF, see the LMF MTL Server/Client User's Guide supplied by Fujitsu. CONFIGURATION It is assumed that the site has the LMF server configured and operating with the LMF library. The "equipment identifier" field in the mcf file, (see mcf(4)), is the full path name to a parameters file used by fujitsulmf. This file consists of a list of keyword = value pairs or a keyword followed by a drivename = value pair. All keywords and values are case-sensitive and must be entered as shown. lmfdrive There is one lmfdrive line for every drive assigned to this client. Following the lmfdrive keyword is a drivename = path, where: drivename is the drivename as configured in LMF. path is the pathname to the device. This name must match the "equipment identifier" of an entry in the mcf file. EXAMPLE Here are sample parameters files and mcf entries for an LMF library. # # This is file: /etc/opt/SUNWsamfs/lmf50 # # the name "LIB001DRV000" is from the LMF configuration # lmfdrive LIB001DRV000 = /dev/rmt/0cbn # a comment # # the name "LIB001DRV001" is from the LMF configuration # lmfdrive LIB001DRV001 = /dev/rmt/1cbn # a comment The mcf file entries. # # Sample mcf file entries for an LMF library # /etc/opt/SUNWsamfs/lmf50 50 fj fj50 - /var/opt/SUNWsamfs/catalog/fj50_cat /dev/rmt/0cbn 51 fd fj50 - /dev/samst/c2t5u0 /dev/rmt/1cbn 52 fd fj50 - /dev/samst/c2t6u0 IMPORT/EXPORT Since the physical adding and removing of media in the LMF library is done with LMF utilities, the import/export com- mands will only affect the library catalog. The import com- mand has an optional parameter (see import(1M)) (-v) for supplying the volser to be added. fujitsulmf will verify that LMF knows about the volser before updating the catalog with the new entry. The export command (see export(1M)) will remove the entry from the catalog. CATALOG There are two utilities used to maintain the library catalog used by LMF. build_cat (see build_cat(1M)) is used to build the catalog. dump_cat (see dump_cat(1M)) and build_cat together are used to change the size of the catalog. To initialize a catalog with 1000 slots run: build_cat /tmp/catalog_file < /dev/null then move /tmp/catalog_file to the path pointed to in the mcf file for this media changer. Use import to populate the catalog with the volumes allowed by DAS. Or, you can create a file with the list of volumes and supply it as input to build_cat (see build_cat(1M)) for the format of the input file. If the size of the catalog needs to be increased, execute something like: dump_cat file1 | build_cat -s 2000 /tmp/file2 This would create a new catalog file (/tmp/file2) with room for 2000 entries and initialize it with the entries from file1. This should only be done when the Sun QFS and SAM- QFS software is not running and sam-amld has been shutdown (see sam-amld(1M)). FILES mcf The configuration file for the Sun QFS and SAM-QFS software. /opt/SUNWsamfs/lib/liblmf2.so The LMF library supplied by Fujitsu.
