Check-in Media into
an Archive The Check-in Media command enters checked out media into
an archive. These media are placed on the Enter list. If media to
be checked in are not labeled, labels must be provided. Refer to
“Reprint a Media Label” on page 4-37 or use the Print Label
option of the Import Media command.
Basic check-in parameters are the checkin media identifier,
destination archive, and priority. The priority determines the
command location in VolServ command queue.
Unsolicited Entry of
Known Media The DataTower archive supports the unsolicited media enter
operation. An unsolicited media enter operation is performed
without VolServ system GUI interaction.
After media are loaded into the DataTower load port, the AO
pushes the LOAD button on the archive. The archive robot
barcode reader scans the media label, retrieves the media from
the load port, and places the media into bins.
Note
If media action modes are set for migrate, media migration can
occur if a check-in command results in fill levels exceeding the
media type or archive media class high marks.
