Managing the AMASS File System

Step 1. Use an editor, such as vi, to create a template file similar to the file shown in the following example:

#length code in 5th position of

#volume label

#D=n

#xxxxLxxxxxxxx

Step 2.

The D=n string, indicates the tape length value.

 

To define a 50 GB length for a tape, enter a value of

 

C as shown in the following example:

#length code in 5th position of

#volume label

#D=C

#xxxxLxxxxxxxx

Step 3. The xxxxLxxxxxxxx string indicates the location of the tape length value imbedded on the barcode.

To imbed the length in the fifth position on the barcode, enter an L in the fifth position as shown in the following example:

#length code in 5th position of

#volume label

#D=C

#1R34L5M891J34

Step 4. Save and name the template file

/usr/amass/BarcodeTemplate.
