Operands

The drive number for which to set the hostport mode. The mode
may be changed for all LTO4 and later drives by specifying
all

for this operand. This operand is required.

drive_num

mode

The mode, which can be: auto, hard, soft, or nport. When
mode is hard, the alpa may be specified. This operand is
required.

NOTE:

The alpa value cannot be 0xEF because this is equal

to a loopid of 0, which is soft mode.

Examples

To set the mode to soft addressing on all ports on all LTO4 and later drives:

/>set drive hostport mode all soft

To set the mode to hard addressing on all ports on all LTO4 and later drives:

/>set drive hostport mode all hard

To set the mode to hard addressing and ALPA to 0xbc on all ports on all LTO4
and later drives:

/>set drive hostport mode all hard 0xbc

To set the mode to hard addressing on all ports on drive number 1:

/>set drive hostport mode 1 hard
