Parameter

scsi_id

TypeNumeric
Value

A value between 0 and 7. This is the ID number of the emulated SCSI device. The SCSI adapter is preloaded with address 7. If required, set it to another value in the range of 0-7 from the VAX console.

.

...

Please note that there is no direct correspondence between the host hardware SCSI ID and these CHARON-VAX SCSI addresses. Set the correspondence between the physical SCSI addresses on the host system and the CHARON-VAX SCSI bus ID in the configuration file.


Syntax:

load <instance type>/<module name> <instance name> scsi_bus=<bus name> scsi_id=<number>

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 where the emulator executable resides, typically "C:\Program Files (x86)\CHARON\Build_XXXXX\x86" (Windows x64; for Windows x86 the path is "C:\Program Files\CHARON\Build_XXXXX\x86").

If the "CHARON Guest Utilities for OpenVMS" (CHARONCP) package is used, the syntax is different. Please read the corresponding chapter.

Using compressed folders to store virtual disks and tapes is not supported.
