NOTE: The IDLETIME displayed by the drivestat output is the per-drive value, not the global value.

IDLETIME

The IDLETIME parameter—configured during AMASS installation—defines the length of time in seconds a drive will remain idle before AMASS will remove tape media from the drive. This parameter affects all your drives. For configuration information, refer to “IDLETIME” in Installing AMASS.

NOTE: Idle eject is not supported for optical drives.
