Configuration
• If the auto check-in option is enabled, checked-out media
are automatically checked in to the VolServ system. The
automatically checked-in media remain in the Media Class
to which they were associated when they were checked-out.
• If the auto check-in option is not enabled, VolServ leaves
the checked-out media in the load port.
Auto Check-in During
Enter All archives support the enter operation. An enter operation is
performed via interaction of the AO with the appropriate
archive Console. For more information about the enter
operation, refer to see “Enter Media” on page 5-4.
When the AO performs an enter operation on automated
archives, 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 VolServ.
• If the auto check-in option is enabled, checked-out media
are automatically checked in to the VolServ system. The
automatically checked-in media remain in the Media Class
to which they were associated when they were checked-out.
• If the auto check-in option is not enabled, VolServ performs
actions that depend on the archive type. VolServ software:
- leaves the check-out media in the load port without
placing them on the eject list (DataTower archive)
- moves the media into the archive and places them on
the eject list (AML/E, AML/2, AML/J, or StorageTek
ACS Product Family archives)
