Defaults
This table shows the variables associated with each type of archive supported by VolServ. Only those variables associated with the site’s archive configuration should be modified. VolServ must be cycled for the changes to become effective. Variable Name Default Description
AMTask Environment Variables
ARCHIVE_CMD_WAIT_TIME 600 Maximum wait time in seconds to wait for queued
primitives.
CLM_DISMOUNT_RETRIES 3 The maximum wait time in seconds for queued
primitives.
CLM_DISMOUNT_RETRIES 3 The number of times a dismount is retried to
allow the CLM to finish moving the medium from
the recorder to the CLM bin. VolServ waits for the
amount of time specified in
CLM_DISMOUNT_WAIT_TIME before retrying.
This is only valid for a DataTower archive.
CLM_DISMOUNT_WAIT_TIME 1 The number of seconds to wait on a dismount
move retry to allow the CLM to finish moving the
medium from the recorder to the CLM bin before
retrying the dismount move. Recommended time
is 0 seconds. This is valid for a Tower system.
TowerAMTask Environment Variables
CAS_MEDIA_PAD_SIZE 0 Tower media ID pad. Used if VolServ is
interfaced with a Cray tpdaemon and using
media identifiers longer than 6 characters.
The default value is based on the total number of
characters in the medium identifier - 6. (e.g
mediaID = LOT0008, 7 characters -6 = 1)
CRITICAL_PROCESSING 1 Determines whether or not to continue
processing when tower hardware errors are
received.
0-DO NOT 1-DO
TOWER_MAX_WAIT_TIME 15 Maximum wait time in seconds for nonqueued
primitives.
