BS2000 disks: Configuration and BS2000 installation
b) The slices on the disk can be configured individually as a BS2000 disk in the tab
4. The slices are configured as BS2000 disks:
The entry "none" is shown in the column Possible actions.
The BS2000 disks are now available to BS2000 and can be accessed using their
mnemonics.
They can now be initialized with the tab Volumes+Pubsets (see points 5 - 8) or processed with
VOLIN/SIR from BS2000.

5. Create pubsets and private disks, including the corresponding initialization for
immediate use under BS2000.
6. Preparation for disk mirroring at BS2000 level with the product DRV.
7. Change of pubset name and system ID.
8. Installation of BS2000 on a pubset.
Activities 5 - 8 can be executed by means of the tab Volumes+Pubsets (see
"Functions" on page
for this tab, which also describes the procedure for some standard tasks and the procedure
to be adopted in the event of errors.
The tab Volumes+Pubsets can only process configured BS2000 disks. It is also not possible
to change the format with this tab.
When activities 5 - 8 are executed BS2000 may not process the disks concerned. This
means that the disks must be detached. Initialization and BS2000 installation cause all data
on the disks to be lost. After a name change (activity 5) the pubset concerned must be
imported as "regenerated" (IMPORT-PUBSET with the operand ACTUAL-JOIN=*FIRST). All
the user IDs of the pubset are therefore lost and must be backed up beforehand where
necessary. The first startup after the re-installation of a BS2000 must also be executed with
a dialog startup and corresponding inputs when importing the home pubset.

BS2 disks with the action Create. The format can also be changed individually with
this action.
CAUTION!
!
An import with different formats is not possible later.
To ensure that switching between Volumes+Pubsets and another tab does not take
too long, the database is only generate and the maintained when Volumes+Pubsets
is started for the first time. Changes via PRIMEPOWER ServerView are automati-
cally accepted but changes via SIR/VOLIN or hardware switching are not accepted.
The action point Re-read VSNs + Update display is therefore provided for these cases
to set the database and therefore the display, if necessary, to the current status.
