Nfs File Names - HP 16-port SCS Installation Instructions Manual

If a mount operation is not immediately successful, it will be retried every 60 seconds for approximately 15 minutes. If
an existing mount is lost, the SCS automatically attempts to restore it.
If an error occurs, the display might include a numeric value and a text message. See "NFS Error Codes" and "Port
Status."
Disabling NFS
Issue an NFS command with the Disable parameter.
nfs disable
If you later enable NFS again on the SCS, the server address, mount point, file type, and protocol values at the time
of disabling will be used if new values are not specified with the enable command.
See "NFS command."
Checking NFS mount status
Issue a Show NFS command. (You can also issue the NFS Enable command without additional parameters to verify
an existing mount.)
Enabling NFS on the SCS Ports
After NFS is successfully enabled on the SCS, you can enable and configure NFS on the individual ports.
If an error occurs, it might include a numeric value and a text message. See "NFS error codes" and "Port status."

NFS file names

When you enable NFS on one or all ports, you can specify a file name, which must be unique for each port. If the
daily file type was configured with the NFS Enable command, the file name must also be unique for each day. You
can use the substitution strings listed in Table 3-7 as part of the file name specification, regardless of the file type.

If you do not specify a file name, the default is interpreted according to the configured file type:
If the file type is linear, the default is equivalent to P%#.hst. The resulting file name for each port will include the
port number.
If the file type is daily, the default is equivalent to P%#_%F.hst. The resulting daily file name for each port will
include the port number and the date.
Using the default file names is the most convenient way to ensure that all file names will be unique for each port (and
for each day, if the file type is daily).
However, if you choose to specify a file name rather than use the defaults, it must meet the following criteria:
The file name must be different from the file name specified for any other port on the SCS. Using the port
number substitution string (%#) in the file name specification is one way to meet this requirement.
If you are enabling NFS on all ports by including the All parameter and you also include the File parameter
with a non-default specification (that is, a specification other than File=), the file name specification must
explicitly include the %# port number substitution string.
