Initial
Configuration
None When the action mode none option is specified, VolServ
initiates no automatic action when the number of media of the
specified media type reaches the calculated high mark
threshold. However, when the number of media of the specified
media type reaches the archive capacity minus the
ARCMAN_CAPACITY_DELTA (default is 10) value, VolServ
software generates notification to the Volume Server SysLog
Console.
Notify When the action mode notify option is specified, VolServ
generates notification to both the Volume Server SysLog
Console and archive Console when the number of media of the
specified media type reaches the calculated high mark threshold
or drops to the calculated low mark threshold.
It is the responsibility of the VolServ System Administrator
(SA) or VolServ System Operator (SO) to take whatever action
is appropriate in response to the notification.
If the number of media has reached the calculated media-type
high threshold, the SA or SO selects media for removal from
the archive.
If the number of media has dropped to the calculated
media-type low threshold, the SA, SO, or AO may import
additional media into the archive.
Migrate When the action mode migrate option is specified, VolServ
automatically initiates migration of media out of the archive
when the number of media of the specified media type reaches
the calculated high mark threshold.
VolServ continues to mark media for migration until the
number of unmarked media reaches the calculated low mark
threshold for the specified media type.
