Setting up a device description

 

To specify the device description, you can use the Create Device Description (CRTDEVTAP) command.

The device description contains information such as the device name, device type, model number, and features. For some tape devices, a tape controller description must also exist. For more information about setting up a Tape controller description, see CRTCTLTAP.
