SYSMANHELP.HLB  —  IO  AUTOCONFIGURE  Qualifiers

1    /SELECT

       /SELECT=(device_name)

    Specifies the device type to be automatically configured. Use
    valid device names or mnemonics that indicate the devices to be
    included in the configuration. You can use wildcard characters
    with this qualifier.

    See the Usage Notes under the /EXCLUDE qualifier for notes that
    apply to both qualifiers.

    This table shows examples of how the /SELECT qualifier works with
    ports PKA, PKB, and PIA:

    COMMAND           DEVICES CONFIGURED       DEVICES NOT CONFIGURED

    /SELECT=P*        PKA,PKB,PIA              None
    /SELECT=PK*       PKA,PKB                  PIA
    /SELECT=PKA*      PKA                      PKB,PIA

2    /EXCLUDE

       /EXCLUDE=(device_name)

    Specifies the device type that should not be automatically
    configured. Use valid device names or mnemonics that indicate
    the devices to be excluded from the configuration. You can use
    wildcard characters with this qualifier.

    Usage Notes for the /SELECT and /EXCLUDE Qualifiers

    o  The /SELECT and /EXCLUDE qualifiers are not mutually exclusive
       and you can specify both qualifiers on the command line.

    o  You can use the /SELECT and /EXCLUDE qualifiers to permanently
       specify device autoconfiguration to include and exclude Fibre
       Channel port driver devices (FG) and any SCSI port driver
       devices (PK) for the duration of a manual autoconfiguration
       command. (To permanently specify devices to be excluded at
       each system boot, use the SYSMAN command IO SET EXCLUDE.)

       You cannot use the /SELECT and /EXCLUDE qualifiers to include
       and exclude any of the following device types:

       -  SCSI class-driver devices (DK, MK, GK) whose names include
          a port allocation class or an HSZ allocation class

       -  Fibre Channel class-driver devices (PG, DG, GG)

       This restriction also applies to SCSI devices on OpenVMS Alpha
       Version 7.1 systems, if the SCSI device names include a port
       allocation class.

3    /LOG

    Controls whether the SYSMAN IO AUTOCONFIGURE command displays
    information about loaded devices.
