| Type of mapping | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| "<file-name>.vdisk" | Mapping to files representing physical disks of the HP Alpha system (disk images). | ||
| "/dev/sd<L>" | Mapping to physical disk. "L" is letter here. These disks must not be formatted by the host OS.
| ||
"/dev/dm-<N>" | Mapping to multipath disk. Be careful not to destroy all the information from the disk dedicated to CHARON-AXP by mistake. These disks must not be formatted by the host OS. | ||
| "/dev/disk/by-*" | Mapping to physical disk.
These disks must not be formatted by the host OS. | ||
| "/dev/sg<N>" | Direct mapping to some SCSI device, for example, a SCSI disk or tape reader. How to find proper "/dev/sg" device is explined explained in this section. | ||
"/dev/sr<N>" | Mapping to host CD-ROM device. | ||
| "<file-name>.iso" | Mapping to an ISO file for reading distribution CD-ROM image. Mapping may also include the full path (recommended), for example: "/my_disks/vms_distributive.iso" | ||
| "<file-name>.vtape" | Mapping to the file representing the tape (tape image). These files are created automatically. Mapping may also include a full path (recommended), for example: "/my_tapes/backup.vtape" |
It is also possible to use not a whole disk, but previously created partitions on it. In this case the syntax is the following: "/dev/sd<L><N>" where N is the number of partition to be used. ...
