Re: /proc/dasd/devices

[Michael MacIsaac]

I can never remember either, that's why I like the script, dasd, that's in
the Large Scale Deployment redbook:

   #!/bin/sh
   # dasd - simple utility for dynamic DASD management
   if [ "$1" = "add" -a "$2" != "" ]; then
     echo "add range=$2" > /proc/dasd/devices
   elif [ "$1" = "on" -a "$2" != "" ]; then
     echo "set device range=$2 on" > /proc/dasd/devices
   elif [ "$1" = "off" -a "$2" != "" ]; then
     echo "set device range=$2 off" > /proc/dasd/devices
   elif [ "$1" = "list" ]; then
     cat /proc/dasd/devices
   else
     echo "Usage: dasd add|on|off vdev_or_range" 1>&2
     echo " dasd list" 1>&2
     exit 2
   fi
