Parameters
- device_class_name (Required)
- Specifies the name of the device class to be updated.
- SERVERName
- Specifies the name of the server. The SERVERNAME parameter must
match a defined server.
Note: If you change the SERVERNAME of an
existing server to a new name, data on the volumes under the old SERVERNAME
is no longer accessible with this device class.
- MAXCAPacity
- Specifies the maximum size that objects can be when created on
the target server. This parameter is optional.
Specify this value as an integer followed by K (kilobytes), M (megabytes), G (gigabytes),
or T (terabytes). The minimum
value that is allowed is 1 MB (MAXCAPACITY=1M).
- PREFIX
- Specifies the beginning portion of the high-level archive file
name on the target server. This parameter is optional. The maximum
length of this prefix is 8 characters.
If
you previously established a media label naming convention that supports
your current management system, use a volume prefix that conforms
to your naming conventions.
- RETRYPeriod
- Specifies the retry period in minutes. The retry
period is the interval during which the server attempts to contact
a target server if there is a suspected communications failure. This
parameter is optional. You can specify a number from 0 to 9999.
- RETRYInterval
- Specifies the retry interval in seconds. The retry
interval is how often retries are done within a specific time period.
This parameter is optional. You can specify a number from 1 to 9999.
- MOUNTRetention
- Specifies the number of minutes to retain an idle connection with
the target server before the connection is closed. This parameter
is optional. You can specify a number from 0 to 9999.
- MOUNTLimit
- Specifies the maximum number of simultaneous sessions between
the source server and the target server. Any attempts to access more
sessions than indicated by the mount limit cause the requester to
wait. This parameter is optional. You can specify a number from 1
to 4096.
The
following are possible values:
- number
- Specifies the maximum number of simultaneous sessions between
the source server and the target server.
- 1 (zero)
- Specifies the number of simultaneous sessions between the source
server and the target server.
