chfbvol

Parameters

-dev storage_image_ID

(Optional) Specifies the storage image ID, which consists of manufacturer, machine type, and serial number. This parameter is required if you do not specify a fully qualified volume ID.

-os400 protected | unprotected

(Optional) Specifies options for the OS 400 volume data types. If the current volume data type is os400-protected (FB 520P) or os400-unprotected (FB 520U) then this data type can be modified to either os400-unprotected (FB 520U) or os400-protected (FB520P) respectively. If the current volume data type is 512, then this setting cannot be modified.

Notes:

1. If the volume is unassigned to any iSeries or non-configured, you can use this parameter to change the designated protection value.
2. If the volume is assigned and is a part of the i5/OS configuration, you cannot use this parameter to change the protection value. The only way to change the protection value on a volume that is part of the i5/OS configuration is to perform the following steps, using extreme caution:
   1. Remove the volume from the i5/OS application (this must be done first)
   2. Remove the volume from DS system
   3. Create a new volume and assign the correct protection value.

-name new_volume_name

(Optional) Specifies your nickname for this volume. A nickname cannot exceed 16 characters.

volume_ID . . . | -

(Required) Specifies one or more volume IDs to be modified. The volume ID is a 32-bit number that can be represented as 4 hexadecimal digits in the form of XYZZ where X is the address group (0 - 1), XY together is the logical subsystem number 00 - 1E (for 1750) , and ZZ is the volume number (00 - FF). You must fully qualify the volume ID with manufacturer, machine type, and serial number if you do not use the -dev parameter.

To specify a range of volume IDs, separate the volume IDs with a hyphen.

You must separate multiple volume IDs or ranges of volume IDs with a blank space between each ID or range of IDs.

Example: 0100-010F 0180-018F 0120

If you specify the dash (-), this parameter information is automatically supplied. However, you cannot use this feature if you are using the DS CLI interactive command mode.
