Administrative Tasks

Configure an Archive

A VolServ system includes VolServ, archives, drives, and media. After VolServ is installed, the site-specific configuration of archives, drives, and media must be input into VolServ before normal VolServ operations can begin.

The following list identifies the actions to perform that configure a VolServ system.

Configure the archives to be supported.

Define the necessary Media Classes.

Associate the defined Media Classes with the appropriate configured archives.

Define the drives to be used in the configured archives.

Associate the drives with the appropriate archives.

Define label patterns.

Print media labels, if appropriate.

Add media to the configured archives.

Note

VolServ does not have to be running to configure an archive.

Before VolServ software can manage archive operations, the software must have access to specific parameters pertaining to each managed archive. This is performed via the Configure Archive command.

Managed archives are either automated or manual. An automated archive uses a mechanical robot to perform media movement operations. A manual archive requires human intervention to perform media movement operations.
