Configure a Manual Archive

-moves the subject media into the archive and places them on the eject list (AML/E, AML/2, AML/J, or StorageTek ACS Product Family archives)

When an intransit medium (due to an incomplete mount command) is imported or entered, VolServ software attempts to complete the mount.

VolServ supports two manual archives: the DataShelf archive and the Stage archive.

Configuring a manual archive is identical to configuring an automated archive with the following exceptions.

Fill Mode

When media are added to a DataShelf archive, VolServ must

 

assign an empty storage bin for each new media.

 

To minimize database access activity, VolServ software caches

 

information about an entire shelf of bins in memory. As long as

 

an available bin exists in the cached shelf, VolServ software

 

assigns storage bins from the cached shelf to new media.

 

When no additional bins are available in the cached shelf,

 

VolServ software writes the cached information about the shelf

 

to the database and scans the shelves in the DataShelf archive

 

sequentially until another shelf with an available storage bin is

 

located.

 

Two algorithms are available to determine where VolServ

 

begins its scan for a shelf with an available storage bin. These

 

algorithms, called fill modes, are wrap and first fill.
