7.2.2 Devices

This section of server.cfg specifies, whether devices will be attached automatically at server start (setting automatic) or manually (setting manual). Devices that are not listed will not be attached. It is not required, to list all devices in this section, as they can always be attached manually with "cdadm attach <device>" (page 225). Each entry <xyz> presupposes a corresponding file <xyz>.dev in the JUKEMAN directory.
The GUI on Windows NT expects all devices to be listed in this section. This is to keep in mind when making changes to server.cfg manually.
Example:

devices {
list { p18 mercury device3 }
p18 { startup { automatic } }
mercury { startup { manual } }
device3 { startup { automatic } }
}

This example defines 3 devices (p18, mercury, device3). The device names are listed in the list { } section. The following lines specify the start-up behavior of the devices. Both p18 and device3 will be attached automatically when the server is started. mercury has to be attached manually.
