Linux Command Line Help Display General Subcommands The following general subcommands are available for the tape and medium changer devices. Items shown enclosed in square brackets, for example [Page], are optional. disablepath ″primary″ | number: The disablepath subcommand is used to disable a path to a medium changer. IBM recommends that you leave all paths enabled, but this subcommand can be used to disable a path. If ″primary″ is specified, the primary path is disabled. If a numeric value is specified, that specific path is disabled. Use the path command to obtain a list of the paths. If there is only one path available and you attempt to disable it, this subcommand fails with an illegal argument. If you attempt to disable a data path (to the tape drive), a ″function not implemented″ error is returned. This subcommand is only available in IBMtapeutil version 1.2.0 or higher, and the IBMtape device driver, version 1.4.1 or higher, on libraries that have the Control Path Failover feature enabled. enablepath ″primary″ | number: The enablepath subcommand is used to enable a path to a medium changer that has been previously disabled with the disablepath subcommand. If ″primary″ is specified, the primary path is enabled. If a numeric value is specified, that specific path is enabled. Use the path command to obtain a list of the paths. If you attempt to enable a data path (to a tape drive), a ″function not implemented″ error is returned. This subcommand is only available in IBMtapeutil version 1.2.0 or higher, and the lin_tape device driver, version 1.4.1 or higher, on libraries that have the Control Path Failover feature enabled. 386 IBM Tape Device Drivers Installation and User's Guide

General Subcommands
The following general subcommands are available for the tape and medium
changer devices. Items shown enclosed in square brackets, for example [Page], are
optional.
disablepath
primary
| number:
The disablepath subcommand is used to
disable a path to a medium changer. IBM recommends that you leave all paths
enabled, but this subcommand can be used to disable a path. If
primary
is
specified, the primary path is disabled. If a numeric value is specified, that specific
path is disabled. Use the path command to obtain a list of the paths. If there is
only one path available and you attempt to disable it, this subcommand fails with
an illegal argument. If you attempt to disable a data path (to the tape drive), a
function not implemented
error is returned. This subcommand is only available
in IBMtapeutil version 1.2.0 or higher, and the IBMtape device driver, version 1.4.1
or higher, on libraries that have the Control Path Failover feature enabled.
enablepath
primary
| number:
The enablepath subcommand is used to enable
a path to a medium changer that has been previously disabled with the
disablepath subcommand. If
primary
is specified, the primary path is enabled. If
a numeric value is specified, that specific path is enabled. Use the path command
to obtain a list of the paths. If you attempt to enable a data path (to a tape drive),
a
function not implemented
error is returned. This subcommand is only available
in IBMtapeutil version 1.2.0 or higher, and the lin_tape device driver, version 1.4.1
or higher, on libraries that have the Control Path Failover feature enabled.
