    This command clears alias names for a tape drive or media changer.

    Parameters

    Use this parameter to specify the node to which the tape drive is attached.

    { -name <text> - Alias Name That Is to Be Cleared

    • tape - Clear all tape drive aliases

    • all - Clear both tape drive and media-changer aliases
