Sets the username for the specified user, who has sufficient privileges to read

Uma command line interface commands:
help
Displays the usage synopsis for the uma command.
inq
Performs a SCSI Inquiry operation on the device file/SCSI address specified with
the -ioctl option. It returns the device's type, vendor ID, product ID and
firmware revision number.
init
Performs a SCSI 'initialize element status' operation, which (if applied to an
autochanger robotic device) forces the autochanger to reset its internal state and
perform an inventory of its repository. This command should not be used if another
process is accessing the autochanger at the same time, as the effects are
unpredictable.
addr
Queries and displays the autochanger's element assignment page. Each
addressable item inside the autochanger mechanism (drive, repository slot,
robotic arm, import/export slot) has a unique integer number (slot ID) which can
be used to address this specific item.
As the element assignment differs among different autochangers, the software,
which is to control the movement of media inside the autochanger, must find out
and use these numbers to perform move, pos and stat operations.
offl driveID
This command can be used only if at least one drive was specified using the
-device option. If a medium is loaded in the specified drive, it will eject the
medium just as if an UNIX mt offl command was specified. The mandatory
argument is a symbolic drive ID (i.e. D3 for the 3rd drive == the 3rd device file
specified with the -dev option). If the drive specified is not defined by the
-device option, then the last drive defined by the -device option will be
used.
The offl command can fail with a message: "No such device or
address" if it is issued immediately after the move command since it takes a
certain time after the move command for the drive to be online. Refer to the move
command for more information.
