drive, path: Drive letter the user gives to a volume, or path name of an NTFS folder. You can give a drive
letter and path names of multiple NTFS folders for a volume. This falls on [Path] on the screen
display.
disk_number: Physical disk number that the Windows system allocates uniquely for managing disk devices.
This can be specified in decimal 0 to 255. If a character other than “0” to “9” is input, the
parameter format error will occur. A part displayed as “Disk No.” on the example screen
indicates the disk number.
volume_name: Identifier that the Windows system allocates uniquely for managing volumes. This is referred
to as a MountPoint volume name. This falls on [Volume Name] on the screen display.
HBT: Abbreviation of a host adapter number, bus number and target ID. This can be specified in the
format of hxxbxxtxx and a decimal number from 0 to 255 can be specified for xx. (Figure 5-7
Relationship Between System Configuration and HBT) You can identify a disk array by HBT.
<Host Adapter Number : HBA>
This is the number of an interface card to connect the SCSI bus and the host. There are two or
more buses in the host adapter.
<Bus Number : Bus>
This is the number of a path (bus) from the host adapter to a target (SCSI device). One path can
handle two or more targets.
<Target ID>
This is an ID to identify a device connected to the SCSI bus. One ID is assigned to one disk
array.
LUN: Logical unit number to identify each of the two or more logical structures that can be accessed
with one target ID. This can be specified in decimal 0 to 255. A logical disk on a disk array is
recognized as a unique logical unit. You can identify a disk array and logical disk by HBT and
LUN.
(3) Termination of Volume List
When a Volume List is terminated normally, items corresponding to specified options are displayed.
The execution results are displayed only when the -cr option is specified.
1. The volume list command should be carried out by the authority of the Administrator group.
2. When the Volume List is installed for the first time, no volume information exists. Create it using the -cr option.
3. When the configuration of a device is changed, the volume information must be updated to reflect the latest
status. Update the volume information using the -cr option.
