在AIX中如何改变LTO设备的参数?

  如果在AIX中需要改变默认的参数如压缩、块大小、缓冲区等,可以使用smit工具。

  具体的方法如下:

  1)确定AIX中要修改的设备

  # lsdev -Cc tape

  smc0 Available 14-08-00-6,0 IBM 3583 Library Medium Changer

  rmt0 Available 14-08-00-0,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive

  rmt1 Available 14-08-00-1,0 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive

  rmt2 Available 30-68-01 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive (FCP)

  smc1 Available 30-68-01 IBM 3584 Library Medium Changer (FCP)

  rmt3 Available 30-68-01 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive (FCP)

  smc2 Available 30-68-01 IBM 3584 Library Medium Changer (FCP)

  rmt4 Available 30-68-01 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive (FCP)

  smc3 Available 30-68-01 IBM 3584 Library Medium Changer (FCP)

  1.1)假设我们要修改SCSI连接的3583上的SCSI ID=2的驱动器的参数:

  通过分析我们可以确定rmt1的SCSI ID是1,正是我们要修改的对象。

  1.2)假设我们要修改光纤连接的3584上的驱动器的参数:

  我们还要通过三个驱动器的WWN来区分他们。首先驱动器的WWN可以通过驱动器上面的标签得到,然后你可以使用lsattr命令得到WWN和设备名的对应关系:

  #lsattr -El rmt2

  block_size 0 Block Size (0=Variable Length) True

  compress yes Use Hardware Compression on Tape True

  autoload no Use Autoloading Feature at End-of-Tape True

  logging no Activate volume information logging True

  max_log_size 500 Maximum size of log file (in # of entries) True

  space_mode SCSI Backward Space/Forward Space Record Mode True

  rew_immediate no Use Immediate Bit in Rewind Commands True

  trailer_labels no Trailer Label Processing True

  retain_reserve no Retain Reservation False

  devtype ULT3580- Device Type False

  scsi_id 0x213ca SCSI Target ID True

  lun_id 0x0 Logical Unit Number True

  location Location True

  ww_name 0x5005076300410803 World Wide Name False

  new_name New Logical Name True

  1.3)如果驱动器上没有WWN标签,或复杂的SAN环境,或使用FC-SCSI-GATAWAY的情况我们可以通过SAN机来确定。

  2)参数:

  3.1)显示现有参数的命令:

  # lscfg -vl rmt1

  DEVICE LOCATION DESCRIPTION

  rmt7 30-68-01 IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive (FCP)

  Manufacturer................IBM

  Machine Type and Model......ULT3580-TD1

  Serial Number...............6811288675

  Device Specific.(FW)........25D4

  #lsattr -El rmt2

  block_size 0 Block Size (0=Variable Length) True

  compress yes Use Hardware Compression on Tape True

  autoload no Use Autoloading Feature at End-of-Tape True

  logging no Activate volume information logging True

  max_log_size 500 Maximum size of log file (in # of entries) True

  space_mode SCSI Backward Space/Forward Space Record Mode True

  rew_immediate no Use Immediate Bit in Rewind Commands True

  trailer_labels no Trailer Label Processing True

  retain_reserve no Retain Reservation False

  devtype ULT3580- Device Type False

  scsi_id 0x213ca SCSI Target ID True

  lun_id 0x0 Logical Unit Number True

  location Location True

  ww_name 0x5005076300410803 World Wide Name False

  new_name New Logical Name True

  3.2)设置参数的方法:

  我们可以使用SMIT工具修改某一个指定的LTO设备。

  具体方法是:

  3.2.1)#SMITTY

  3.2.2)选择菜单Devices -> Tape Drive -> Change/Show

  Characteristics of a Tape Drive.

  3.2.3)选择我们指定的设备

  3.2.4)修改参数:

  Change / Show Characteristics of a Tape Drive

  Type or select values in entry fields.

  Press Enter AFTER making all desired changes.

  [Entry Fields]

  Tape Drive rmt0

  Tape Drive type 3580

  Tape Drive interface scsi

  Description IBM 3580 Ultrium Tape

  Status Available

  Location 14-08-00-0,0

  Parent adapter scsi1

  Connection address 0,0

  Block Size (0=Variable Length) [0]

  Use Hardware Compression on Tape yes

  Activate volume information logging no

  Maximum size of log file (in # of entries) [500]

  Backward Space/Forward Space Record Mode SCSI

  Use Immediate Bit in Rewind Commands no

  Trailer Label Processing no

  比如我们可以修改不使用硬件压缩

  Use Hardware Compression on Tape no

  这种修改是永久生效的。
