tms(7)tms(7)NAMEtms - TMSCP magnetic tape interface
SYNOPSIS
For XMI/KDM on Alpha-based systems:
bus xmi0 at iop0 vector xmierror controller uq0 at xmi? port kdm vector
uqintr device tape tms0 at uq0 drive 0
For MSI Bus: only MIPS-based DECsystem 5500
bus msi0 at ibus? vector msi_isr controller dssc1 at msi0 msinode 1

For XMI/CI/HSC on Alpha-based systems:
bus xmi0 at iop0 vector xmierror bus ci0 at xmi? port np vector
cimna_isr controller hsc6 at ci0 cinode 6 device tape tms3 at hsc6
drive 3
For tms devices dual ported between two controllers:
device tape tms2 at * drive 2
DESCRIPTION
The TMSCP driver provides a standard tape drive interface, as described
in mtio(7). This is a driver for any controller that adheres to the
Tape Mass Storage Control Protocol (TMSCP). The TMSCP controllers com‐
municate with the host through a packet-oriented protocol termed the
Tape Mass Storage Control Protocol.
Tape Support - Alpha-based systems
TA78, TA79, TA81, TA90, TA90E, TA91
Diagnostics
All diagnostic messages are sent to the error logger subsystem.
