251.11 | People still running V1.1 with JUDRIVER | COOKIE::MILLER | Steve Miller--Storage Mgt. Software | Thu Jan 30 1997 15:04 | 4 |
| Another user has tried running MRU V1.1 with JUDriver. I will have to make
it as BOLD AS POSSIBLE and RIGHT UP FRONT that users shouldn't do this.

251.12 | Logical changes. | SSDEVO::ROLLOW | Dr. File System's Home for Wayward Inodes. | Thu Feb 13 1997 23:57 | 25 |
| The behavior of the MRU_UNLOAD_DELAY logical has been
changed to match the original intent. MRU_UNLOAD_DELAY
is the number of seconds that mrd_unload() will retry
trying to remove a tape from a drive. An elapsed time
loop is used so that it doesn't matter if each command
takes 1 second or 10. The default is the intended 180
seconds.
A new logical, MRU_READY_DELAY, has been added. When
the Inport door is closed after a Ready IOD, a SCSI
Check Condition is generated, eventually. If this
Check Condition is seen by a Move Medium command, the
command may appear to fail, even when it succeeds. To
work around this, the VMS implementation of Ready IOD
waits for the Port Accessed condition to appear before
it returns. The amount of time to wait is MRU_READY_DELAY,
with a default of 65 seconds.
The timer ensures that it doesn't wait for ever, in case
the Check Condition doesn't show up. But, it is also
long enough to allow time to open the door, put a tape
in and close it towards the end of the one minute that
the light stays on.

251.13 | | NABETH::alan | Dr. File System's Home for Wayward Inodes. | Thu Feb 20 1997 13:23 | 10 |
| I've added stubs to the Errors help file for the following
new messages:
Errors Audit Mouse2
Errors Audit Mouse3
Errors FindMachineBroken
In case they weren't mentioned previously, I also added
audit messages and errors messages for Position, Home
and Find. I think the new Show reused existing messages.
|
251.14 | Still more new messages. | NABETH::alan | Dr. File System's Home for Wayward Inodes. | Thu Feb 20 1997 14:45 | 32 |
| Here are some more messages and a description of what caused
it. I'm updating the Errors. file with tags, titles and
basic stub text.
Errors EnterVolTag
When a Find is first started, a dialog is started
to prompt for the volume tag that is to be used as
the search key. If an empty string is provided to
this dialog, this message is displayed. The dialog
is not dismissed.
Errors AlreadySearching
Only one "Find" is allowed a time. This message
occurs when an attempt is made to start a 2nd
search.
Errors CantFind
After an exhaustive search the desired volume
tag couldn't be found.
Errors CantElement
A Show Element was attempted, but the interface
could determine for which element. Each element
should have a brick_t data structure associated
with it, but the brick for this element was NULL.

251.15 | New logical. | NABETH::alan | Dr. File System's Home for Wayward Inodes. | Tue Apr 01 1997 17:44 | 11 |
| The GUI and CLI both support a new logical; MRU_CASE_SENSITIVE.
If this logical is not defined, volume tags (where used) will
be converted to uppercase. If it is defined, the case of
the volume tag will be preserved.
In the CLI, this is used for arguments provided via the
CARTRIDGE qualifier.
In the GUI it is used for the Cleaning tape prefix and
the Find command.
|
251.16 | | NABETH::alan | Dr. File System's Home for Wayward Inodes. | Tue Apr 01 1997 17:50 | 11 |
| Do we want to fully document uses of the CARTRIDGE feature?
On the commands, Load, Unload, Inject, Eject, Move and Home
if the CARTRIDGE feature is used, the CLI will check that
the named cartridge is actually at the source element. If
not, the command will fail. Example:
robot move slot 2 port 0 cart DEC000
or:
robot load slot 15 drive 0 cartridge CLN967

251.17 | | SUBSYS::BROWN | SCSI and DSSI advice given cheerfully | Fri Apr 18 1997 14:48 | 6 |
| Just a slight change to the installation guide for VMS.
Under the section on DAT and DLT loaders, the guide says that
the loaders always show up at LUN 1 (i.e. GKA201). This is no longer true.
The not-yet-released loader for the TZ89 shows up at a separate
SCSI ID, like the TL8xx libraries do.
|
251.18 | | NABETH::alan | Dr. File System's Home for Wayward Inodes. | Fri Apr 18 1997 15:29 | 3 |
| Then we'll call it a library... And this this yet unannounced
device has a bar-code reader, it is much more like the larger
libraries than it is the previous loaders.

251.19 | Fixed FIND CARTRDIGE syntax | COOKIE::MILLER | Steve Miller--Storage Mgt. Software | Tue May 06 1997 16:40 | 8 |
| FIXED: robot.8, ROBOT$HELP.HLP, MRUINFO.PS
FIND CARTRIDGE {tape_label} [ROBOT robot_name]
Locates medium identified by tape_label.
