Auto Check-in During
Audit An archive audit is executed to synchronize the information in
the VolServ database with the actual media contents of a
specified archive.
When an archive audit is performed, the archive control
software reports the media contents of the archive to VolServ.
When the archive audit detects the physical presence of media
that are shown as checked-out by VolServ, the setting of the
auto check-in parameter determines the action taken by
Vol Se rv .
• If the auto check-in option is enabled, VolServ
automatically checks the located media into the VolServ
system. These media remain in the Media Class to which
they were associated when checked-out.
• If the auto check-in option is not enabled, VolServ initiates
the ejection of the media from the VolServ system by
placing the media on the archive eject list. In the
DataTower, the media thus found are also moved to the
eject port.
Auto Check-in
During Unsolicited
Media Enter
DataTower Archive Only
The DataTower archive supports the unsolicited media enter
operation. An unsolicited media enter operation is performed
without VolServ system GUI interaction.
During an unsolicited media enter operation, media are placed
in the DataTower load port, followed by pushing a b utton abov e
the load port. The archive robot reads the media labels and
sends the media identifiers to VolServ. If any of the media in
the load port are shown as checked-out by VolServ, the setting
of the auto check-in parameter determines the action taken by
Vol Se rv .
