Delete a Drive Pool

It is also possible that some drives’ data paths at a site may be connected to computers not associated with one network. In this case, drive pools can be created to segregate between the drives connected to different networks.

The Modify Drive Pool command allows drives to be added to or deleted from an existing drive pool.

Parameters for Create and Modify Drive Pool commands are drive pool name and a list of drive identifiers to be added to or removed from a drive pool.

The Delete Drive Pool command removes a drive pool from the VolServ database. Parameters for the Delete Drive Pool command are drive pool name and priority. The priority is used to determine the command location in VolServ command queue.

Mount Media on a Drive

In its simplest form, the Mount Media command is issued to mount a specific medium on a specific drive. However, a Mount Media command can be specified several different ways:

Mount by (media identifier or media list or media class) and (drive identifier or drive pool)

Mount by criteria and (drive identifier or drive pool)

The simplest method is to mount by media identifier and drive identifier. When the specified medium or drive is busy, the Mount Media command waits in a queue until both are available. When both are available, the Mount Media command allocates both the drive and media and begins processing of the physical mount. Mounting by media identifier and drive identifier allows selection of a drive in another archive, unless prevented by a Mount Media command option.
