NAME

       gvsdmgr - utility to manage HP-UX Mass Storage Virtual HBAs claimed by HPVM Guest AVIO Storage driver (gvsd)

SYNOPSIS


DESCRIPTION

       is  a  diagnostic  utility  to be used for managing virtual HBAs claimed by the GVSD driver.  This command provides the ability to retrieve
       various configuration information, read and clear accumulated statistics of the virtual HBA and connected devices.

       requires the use of a device file to indicate the interface over which the requested command needs to be performed.

   Options and Arguments
       recognizes the following command-line options and arguments:

       This required argument specifies the device file.

       This option provides a brief description of the command.

       This option provides the target hardware path details corresponding to
	      the persistent device file.  See intro(7) for information about hardware path and persistent device files.

       Specifies the command's qualifiers.
	      A command is defined by a set of qualifiers which must be specified after the command name.  Each  qualifier  is	proceeded  by  the
	      option.

	      The supported qualifiers are:

	      (Valid only for the
		     command.)	Clears all statistics for the virtual HBA and all target devices.

	      Specifies the target device, where:

		     specifies all targets in the device file.

		     tgt_id specifies a specific target in the device file.

   Commands
       recognizes the commands listed below.  A command is defined by a set of qualifiers that are specified with the option.

       All command keywords are case-sensitive.

       When the
	      command is run without qualifiers, it clears statistics of the virtual HBA represented by device_file.

	      clears all statistics for the virtual HBA and all targets.

	      clears statistics for all targets.

	      clears statistics for a specific target.

       When the
	      command is run without qualifiers, it returns information about the virtual HBA represented by device_file.

	      Information returned by includes: target id, target path and the target state.

	      shows target information for all targets.  If the option is used here, then it displays target path hardware path.

	      shows target information for a specific target.

       When the
	      command is run without qualifiers, it shows statistics about the virtual HBA represented by device_file.

	      Information returned by includes: per target opens, close, I/O related statistics, and asynchronous event related statistics.

	      shows statistics for all targets.

	      shows statistics for the specified target.

   Security Restrictions
       requires  superuser  privilege for execution.  See privileges(5) for more information about privileged access on systems that support fine-
       grained privileges.

EXAMPLES

       Display adapter information of the virtual HBA whose device file is

       Display all target information of the virtual HBA whose device file is

       Clear statistics for a target with target id of the virtual HBA whose device file is
