Comparing SCF With PUP
Comparing SCF With PUP
On versions prior to the G-series release, virtual disks are configured and managed by
using several tools: the Configuration Utility Program (COUP) interface of the Dynamic
System Configuration (DSC) utility and the Peripheral Utility Program (PUP). On
G-series releases, PUP and COUP commands are no longer available for configuring
and managing storage devices. You can now use the SCF configuration and
management commands to produce similar results.
This appendix provides comparisons between SCF commands and PUP commands.
When running SCF, you can also display the SCF equivalent online commands for
PUP by entering HELP PUP
pupcommand .
PUP Commands and Equivalent SCF Commands
Table B-6 lists PUP commands and gives the SCF commands that perform the same
