An mcf file consists of lines of specification code divided into six columns, or fields, as shown in the following example.
Equipment Equipment Equipment Family Device Additional Identifier Number Type Set State Parameters
Follow these rules when entering data in the mcf file:
Use either space or tab characters between the fields in the file.
Start comment lines start with a hash character (#).
Some fields are optional. Use a dash character (-) to indicate that an optional field contains no meaningful information.
For more information, see the mcf(4) man page.
You can also use SAM-QFS Manager to automatically create an mcf file. For information about installing SAM-QFS Manager, see Chapter 6, Installing and Configuring SAM-QFS Manager, in Sun QFS and Sun Storage Archive Manager 5.3 Installation Guide. For information about using SAM-QFS Manager, see its online help.
