Adding a CD-ROM Drive
5. Invoke the IO configurator in SYSGEN to modify the configuration:
:SYSGEN
sysgen>IO
Add the device:
io>AD LDEV= ldev PATH= path ID= prod#
where:
ldev logical device number of the CD-ROM drive.
path hardware path to the CD-ROM drive (e.g., 36.1.3 or 52.4).
prod# identification number of the CD-ROM drive (i.e., for HP-IB: HPC1707A;
for HP SCSI: HPA1999A; for Toshiba 3401 SCSI: CD-ROM-XM-3401TA
or CD-ROM-XM-4101TA).
The procedure varies slightly depending on whether you are configuring an HP-IB or
SCSI CD-ROM drive. Examples of configuring both types are provided here. Each
example shows two drives being installed.
HP-IB Example:
io> LPATH 36
( to ensure that path 36 has SPECTRUM_CIO_CAM as PMGR )
io> LPATH 36.1 ***SAMPLE OUTPUT***
( to ensure that path 36.1 has HP-IB DAM as PMGR )
io> ADEVICE LDEV=11 PATH=36.1.3 ID=HPC1707A
( to add the device )
io> ADEVICE LDEV=12 PATH=36.1.4 ID=HPC1707A
( to add the second CD-ROM device )
io> LDEV 11/12
( to ensure you get the following listing: )
LDEV: 11 DEVNAME: OUTDEV: 0 MODE:
ID: HPC1707A RSIZE: 128 DEVTYPE: DISC
PATH: 36.1.3 MPETYPE: 4 MPESUBTYPE: 4
CLASS:
LDEV: 12 DEVNAME: OUTDEV: 0 MODE:
ID: HPC1707A RSIZE: 128 DEVTYPE: DISC
PATH: 36.1.4 MPETYPE: 4 MPESUBTYPE: 4
CLASS:
SCSI Example:
:SYSGEN
sysgen> IO
( first verify that path 52 has SCSI-DAM as PMGR )
io> LPATH 52 ***SAMPLE DATA***
( Add the path for the CD-ROM with a pseudo manager as
the ID )
io> APATH PATH=52.3 ID=PSEUDO PMGR=TRANSPARENT_MGR
( If you have a second CD-ROM to configure, then do
the same for the other path: )
io> APATH PATH=52.4 ID=PSEUDO PMGR=TRANSPARENT_MGR
