SET device-name

Changes the transportable characteristics and the maximum data
transfer rate between the controller and the specified device.

Syntax

SET device-name

Parameter

device-name
Specifies the name of the device to change. This can be a previously
named device, disk, passthrough device, or container.

Switches

TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED=ASYNCHRONOUS
TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED=20MHZ (Default)
TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED=10MHZ
TRANSFER_RATE_REQUESTED=5MHZ
Specifies the maximum data transfer rate for the controller to use in
communicating with the device. You may need to limit the transfer rate
to accommodate long cables between the controllers and the device.

TRANSPORTABLE
NOTRANSPORTABLE (Default)
Indicates whether a disk can be accessed exclusively by StorageWorks
controllers.

Set the TRANSPORTABLE switch for disks only.

Storagesets cannot be made transportable. Specify NOTRANSPORTABLE
for all disks used in RAIDsets, stripesets, mirrorsets, and sparesets.
Transportable disks do not contain any metadata or restricted areas on
the disk. Therefore, transportable disks forfeit the advantage metadata
provides. Transportable disks can be moved to a non-StorageWorks
environment with their data intact.
