Create Entries in Database for Your Media

Make AMASS aware of your media by creating an entry for each volume in the AMASS File System Database by performing the steps in the following table.

Note

For detailed information on the AMASS commands, see the "Command Reference" chapter.

Step	Command		Description
1	Log in as amass	or root.
2A	For SCSI-attached libraries:

			in the AMASS File System
			Database.
