- Volume + Drive Definitions
-
- Note: This list is comprised of all mounted volumes and any empty drives for
- which information is available. If there is a SCSI board in a slot of the
- machine, some additional information on the drive is available in the
- Slot category. Information for a particular volume/drive is only
- listed if it is applicable
-
- The Mount button allows you to mount all volumes which are off-line. It
- depends upon the state of the drivers and if it does not work after two
- or three clicks, you will probably have to reboot to get the volume
- back on line. After each press of the button, the results will appear
- above the button stating how many volumes were mounted and, if any
- were mounted, inform you that the Volume/Drive List was updated
- to reflect this change
-
- [Text] = Item only exists under given circumstance
-
- • Volume Name = Name of volume if one is present in drive. "Not in Queue"
- means that the drive is not entered in the drive queue but that its driver
- is entered in the Unit Table
- ◊ File Count = Number of files on volume [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Folder Count = Number of folders on volume [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Boot Volume = Was this Volume used to startup the machine?
- ◊ Port = Is the drive on an internal or external port? A floppy drive #1 and
- a SCSI drive #0 are considered internal
- ◊ Media = Does the drive use fixed or removable (e.g. a cartridge) media?
- ◊ Hardware Lock = Is the disk containing the volume physically locked?
- [Media = Removable] [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Software Lock = Is the volume locked by software? [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Hierarchical = Is the volume organized in a hierarchical manner or is it flat
- file. Flat file generally only applies to 400K floppies [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Drive Type = Indicates the type of floppy drive (e.g. Superdrive, 800K,
- 400K). [Media = Removable]
- ◊ Size = Capacity of volume or capacity of drive if no volume is mounted
- ◊ Free = Free space on volume [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Allocation Block Size = Minimum number of bytes which can be allocated
- to a new file or added to an existing file when it runs out of space
- [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Last Initialized = Date and time volume was last initialized [Volume
- Mounted]
- ◊ Last Backup = Date and time volume was last backed up. This may not be
- accurate if for some reason the backup software used does not set this
- information [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Volume# = Volume number assigned to volume when mounted. Always a
- negative number [Volume Mounted]
- ◊ Drive# = Drive number assigned to drive when it’s driver is assigned a
- position in the device table and the drive is entered in the drive queue
- ◊ SCSI# = The number set mechanically on the drive if it is a SCSI drive on the
- on the standard SCSI bus
- ◊ Nubus/PDS Slot# = Number of the Slot containing the card for this
- drive [Slot w/SCSI Card]
- ◊ Nubus/PDS sResource# = Number of sResource related to the Slot card
- controlling this drive [Slot w/SCSI Card]
- ◊ Nubus/PDS Device# = Slot device number related to the Slot card
- controlling this drive [Slot w/SCSI Card]
- ◊ Driver# = Number of the driver controlling the drive. Check Driver list
- ◊ Driver Name = Name of the driver controlling the drive. Check Driver list
- ◊ Volume Attributes : [Volume Mounted] [System 7]
- + Boot Blocks = Is the volume capable of being a startup volume?
- + Switch Launch = Is switch-launch to this volume allowed?
- + System Directory = Does the volume support a system
- directory? If not, you may not attempt a switch-launch to it
- + External File System = Was the volume created by a Non-Mac
- operating system, e.g. DOS?
- + File IDs = Does the volume support the System 7
- procedure for tracking files? This helps developers keep track of files
- used by their applications
- + Folder Lock = Can folders on this volume be locked?
- + Edit Volume Name = Can the volume name be changed
- + System 7 desktop Functions = Does the volume
- support the new desktop features such as aliasing, stationary, find file,
- etc.?
- + AFP Privilege Functions = Does the volume support the AFP
- (Appletalk Filing Protocol) that allows for application and file sharing?
- + AFP Access Control Functions = Volume supports PBHGetLoginInfo,
- PBHGetDirAccess, PBHSetDirAccess, PBHMapID, and PBHMapName
- + AFP Short Names = Yes/No
- + Inherited Folder Privileges = Can folders inherit access privileges
- from parent folders?
- + PBCatSearch = Does the volume support the System 7 method for
- searching a volume quickly, e.g. as used by Find File?
- + PBHMoveRename = Yes/No
- + PBHCopyFile = Yes/No
- + PBHOpenDeny = Yes/No
