Command Definitions (HPMERGEEND-LOGSTATUS)
HPVOLINFO
When 1 is used as the volspecifiernum , the volspecifier must be an
LDEV number that corresponds to a configured and mounted volume. An
LDEV number can be any number from 1 through 999.
For character specifiers, the first character determines the delimiter
character for the parameter. The delimiter must be printable; it cannot be
alphanumeric or one of the special characters ". , :" or "_" as explained
below. For example, to pass the volume set MVSN1, you may use % as the
delimiter:
%MVSN1%
Operation Notes
•For volspecifiernum of 3 or 4, the volume set name and the volume class or volume
name must be separated by a colon:
%SET:CLASS%
A colon cannot be used as a delimiter.
• Since a volume set or class can be fully qualified on MPE V, periods are allowed in the
name. Because periods and underscores are allowed in an MPE/iX name, these
characters cannot be used as delimiters.
•For
volspecifiernum of 2 or 3 on MPE V (private volumes), a volume set/class name
may be partially or fully qualified:
VSETNAME.GROUP.ACCT
CLASSNAM.GROUP.ACCT
Each field of the name must consist of one to eight alphanumeric characters. The first
character must be a letter. The name may have up to 55 characters:
%SETxxxxx.GROUPxxx.ACCOUNTx:CLASSxxx.GROUPxxx.ACCOUNTx%
This name has six 8-character fields, four periods, a colon, and two delimiters. When the
volume set or class name is not fully qualified, it refers to the volume set or class in the
logon group/account.
• On MPE/iX, a valid volume set or class name may contain as many as 32 characters.
The first character must be a letter. The rest may be any combination of alphanumeric
characters, including the underscore "_" and the period ".".
• On MPE/iX, the name of the system volume set is MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET.
The system volume set on MPE V does not have a predefined name; thus, the name
MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET is used for compatibility with MPE/iX.
On both systems, this is the volume set name returned for items #3 and #12.
• When the system volume set name is used on MPE V, it must not be followed by a class
name Refer to the discussion for
volspecifiernum 5, below)
On MPE V, group and account names cannot be used to partially or fully qualify the set
or volume name when the system volume set name is specified.
