Assigning SCSI Tape Read/Write
You can assign SCSI tape read and write commands on a one-time basis or on a continuous basis.
Note
There is only one outstanding I/O at a time to the virtual N-port that emulates the tape behavior.
To assign SCSI tape read and or write commands on a one-time basis, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# san-ext-tuner
switch(san-ext)#
Step 2
switch(san-ext)# nWWN 10:00:00:00:00:00:00:00
Step 3
switch(san-ext)# nport pWWN

Step 4
switch(san-ext-nport)# tape-read command-id 100
target 22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22 transfer-size
512000 num-transactions 5000000

Step 5
switch(san-ext-nport)# tape-write command-id 101
target 22:22:22:22:22:22:22:22 transfer-size
512000 num-transactions 5000000

Step 6
switch(san-ext-nport)# stop command-id 100
switch(san-ext-nport)# stop all
Step 7
switch(san-ext-nport)# clear counters
Step 8

Configuring the SAN Extension Tuner
Purpose
Specifies the maximum transfer ready size of
512,000 bytes as a target for SCSI write
commands. For a SCSI write command with
a larger size, the target performs multiple
transfers based on the specified transfer size.
Removes the specified transfer ready size
configuration for SCSI write commands.
Stops the command with the specified ID.
Exits the SAN extension tuner submode.
Purpose
Enters the SET configuration submode.
Configures the nWWN for the SAN
extension tuner.
Creates a virtual N port on the specified
Gigabit Ethernet port and VSAN. This N port
can act as an initiator or a target.
Specifies a transfer size of 512,000 bytes
with space over the filemark every 32 SCSI
read commands. The total number of I/Os is
5,000,000 bytes.
Specifies a transfer size of 512,000 bytes
with filemarks written every 32 SCSI write
commands. The total number of I/Os is
5,000,000 bytes.
Stops the command with the specified ID.
Stops all outstanding commands.
Clears the counters associated with this N
port.
Exits the SAN extension tuner submode.
