following IBM devices are supported:
v
IBM Ultrium LTO1 tape drive inIBM System Storage TS3500, 3581 and 3583 Tape
Libraries
v
IBM TotalStorage Enterprise 3590 Tape Drive Models E11 or H11 (Rack Mount
with ACF)
v
IBM TotalStorage Enterprise 3590 Tape Drive Models E1A or H1A (3494 Tape
Library Models)
Installation Procedure from the Device Driver FTP Site
If you want to download the RasUtil kit from the FTP site, enter this FTP address:
After you have downloaded the RasUtil kit from the FTP site, untar the kit first
and then run the
setld
command to install:
tar -xvf RasUtil.x.x.x.kit.tar
setld -l RasUtil.x.x.x.kit
After installing the IBM RAS utility program, use
vi
or some other text editor to
edit the
.profile
file to add the
/usr/opt/RASUTIL/bin
to the search path.
To find more information on how to execute the IBM RAS utility program, issue:

command:
setld -d IBMRASxxx
Update Procedure
To update the RasUtil kit to a newer version, remove the old version first.
setld -d IBMRASxxx
then follow the above installation steps to install the new version.
Query Procedure
You can determine if the IBM RAS Utility Program kit is installed on the system by
using the following command.
setld -i|grep IBMRAS
To display the RasUtil product kit’s fileset and the located directory, enter:
setld -i IBMRASxxx
Verify Procedure
Use this command to verify the existence of the installed RasUtil program. The
setld -v
command executes any V phase processing included in the subset control
program except during installation.
setld -v IBMRASxxx
