load virtual_scsi_disk/chscsi pka_0 scsi_bus=pka scsi_id=0
set pka_0 container[0] = "/charon/disks/disk1.vdisk"
set pka_0 container[1] = "/dev/sdc"

...

Warning

Unlike MSCP controlled disk images, a disk image connected to a SCSI controller as a virtual SCSI disk CANNOT be replaced by another disk image unless "removable" parameter is set for this particular disk image.

Example:

set pka_0 container = "/charon/disks/my_removable_disk.vdisk"
set pka_0 removable = true

...

Parameter

container[N]

N=0…7

Type

Text String

Value

A string containing the full path to a tape container. If the specified tape image does not exist, CHARON-VAX creates it.

If only the name of the tape container is specified, CHARON-VAX will look for the container in the folder CHARON is running from.

Warning

If the "CHARON Guest Utilities for OpenVMS" (CHARONCP) package is used there is a possibility not to specify the exact tape container on CHARON start since it can be specified later using the package.

In this case the syntax is:

load virtual_scsi_tape/chscsi pka_0 scsi_bus=pka scsi_id=0
set pka_0 container[0] =".vtape"
