Drive Objects

DriveDto

Provides information about a drive within the library.

Drives have several attributes that can be retrieved with the getDrive() method. DriveDto extends DeviceDto.

  • string serialNumberFactoryAssigned - the serial number assigned to the drive by the manufacturer.

  • string serialNumberSpoofed - if serial number spoofing is enabled for the partition containing this drive, this is the serial number assigned to the drive by the library. An empty string if the drive is in a partition where spoofing is disabled.

  • DriveTypeDto detailedType - drive type information.

  • DriveTrayDto driveTray - drive tray information.

  • boolean ready - TRUE indicates a loaded cartridge is ready.

  • CellDto cell - information about the drive cell.

  • string firmwareLevel - drive firmware level.

  • string portAWwn - string representation of the full WWN for port A.

  • string portBWwn - string representation of the full WWN for port B.

  • FcPortDto portAFcSettings - arbitrated loop settings for port A. Not applicable to fabric configurations.

  • FcPortDto portBFcSettings - arbitrated loop settings for port B. Not applicable to fabric configurations.

  • boolean fastload - TRUE indicates fastload is enabled.

  • int tcpPortNumber - TCP/IP port number used to connect to drive.

  • string driveIpAddress - IP address for the drive.

  • string IodIpAddress - IP address for the drive controller card.

  • string driveAlias - user defined name for the drive.

DriveTypeDto

Provides information about the type of drive.

  • string brand - brand name of the drive: STORAGETEK, HP, or IBM.

  • string family - the drive series: T10000 or LTO.

  • string generation - drive generation. LTO drives use numeric generations starting with 1. StorageTek drives use alphabetic generations starting with A.

  • DriveInterfaceType physicalInterfaceType - the drive interface.

  • boolean encryptionCapable - TRUE indicates the drive can encrypt.

  • int typeCode - an integer value provided by Oracle StorageTek drives. This value encodes the family, generation, encryption capability, and emulation mode of the drive.

  • string descriptiveName - a string value that combines the drive family and generation into a human-readable value.

  • string emulation - Oracle StorageTek drives are capable of emulating IBM drives. A value of "3590" indicates the drive is set to emulate IBM drives. A null value means the drive is not emulating IBM drives.

DriveTrayDto

Provides information about the drive tray.

DriveTrayDto extends DeviceDto.

  • DriveDto drive - DriveDto for the drive in the drive tray.

  • DeviceDto drivePowerSupply - DeviceDto for the tape drive power supply in the drive tray.

  • DeviceDto lodCard - DeviceDto for the LOD card in the drive tray.

  • DeviceDto encryptionCard - DeviceDto for the encryption card, if installed in the drive tray.

DriveOperationDto

Provides information about drive activity.

  • List of DriveActivityDataDto activityList - A list of DriveActivityDataDto object containing information queried from the drive during a mount, dismount, or media verification operation. There will be one DriveActivityDataDto object for each individual command used to query data from the drive.

  • DriveOperationStatus operationStatus - status of the mount or dismount operation.

  • CommandTiming commandTiming - Timing of when the commands were issued to the drive, MOUNT, DISMOUNT or INTERMEDIATE.
