PREFERRED_PATH

   Access to a MSCP/TMSCP class device may be available to an
   OpenVMS node from more than one host or storage controller. Use
   the SET PREFERRED_PATH command to specify a particular host or
   preferred path to access a specific MSCP class disk or TMSCP
   class tape device.

   If a preferred path is specified, the normal OpenVMS path
   selection process is modified to select the user-specified path
   over other available paths, assuming the user-specified path is
   available.

   This command is only meaningful for MSCP/TMSCP class devices that
   have more than one path available.
