samcmd executes a single StorageTek QFS or Oracle HSM operator
utility command.
Its purpose is to provide shell script access to the commands
and displays available in
samu (1m).
samcmd
uses the first argument as the samu command or display name. Succeeding
arguments are the arguments for that samu command.
The syntax for the commands is identical to that shown in the COMMANDS
section of
samu (1m).
Note that the colon (:) hot key is not required for samcmd to distinguish
commands from displays.
samcmd
can produce displays on standard output similar to those displayed by
samu.
While for
samu
the information is paged to display a screen at a time if there is more
than one screen of information available,
samcmd
produces the entire amount of information for a given display.
Hence there is no need for equivalents of the control-f, control-b,
control-d, and control-u hotkeys.
Note that the formatting of the information may be slightly different on the
samcmd
output file than on the
samu
display. Since the format of the display control (single letter)
commands can be modified by other hotkeys under
samu,
some equivalents are provided for
samcmd
as follows:
| Display | Arguments |
| a | filesystem |
| n | mediatype |
| p | mediatype |
| r | mediatype |
| s | [I] |
| t | [I] |
| u | mediatype [path] |
| v | eq [sort] [I | I I] |
| w | mediatype [path] |
| x | [I] |
| y | [I] |
| z | [I] |
The sort selections for the v display are: 1 slot, 2 count, 3 usage, 4 VSN, 5 access time, 6 barcode, 7 label time. Specifying a single I for the v display shows a two-line display with the barcode, blocksize, etc. in the second line. Specifying two I's for the v display shows a two-line display with the archiver volume reservation information in the second line. Specifying a single I for the x display shows a two-line display with the number of copied and total bytes, number of total, copied, tar checked, updated copy field in the inode and logged archive copies. Specifying a single I for the y display shows a two-line display with the detailed status information. Specifying a single I for the s, t, or z displays shows a detailed display including cloud tape drives.
The following example loads a cartridge from slot 2 in automated library 30:
samcmd load 30:2
The following example produces a detailed archiver display for filesystem samfs3 on standard output:
samcmd a samfs3
The following example produces a display, on standard output, of the staging queue restricted to stages from media type "lt", showing the full paths of the files to be staged.
samcmd u lt path
The following example produces a display of automated library 50's catalog, with the archiver volume reservation information, on standard output:
samcmd v 50 I I
