Add Media to an Archive

After at least one archive media class is successfully configured, media can be entered into an archive. In fact, normal operations cannot begin until media are entered into an archive.

Note

VolServ has to be running to add media to an archive.

Four basic methods are used to add media to most automated archives. These methods use the Import Media command (refer to “Import Media into an Archive” on page 4-24),the bulk load operation (refer to “Bulk Load Media” on page 4-27), the unsolicited enter operation (refer to “Unsolicited Entry of Known Media” on page 4-30), and the enter operation (refer to “Enter Media” on page 5-4).

To enter media into a DataShelf or Stage archive, only the Import Media command can be used.

When importing media into an archive, media labels must be affixed to them. Refer to “Reprint a Media Label” on page 4-37for more information. Also refer to “Import Media into an Archive” on page 4-24.

The Import Media command is the preferred method to use when entering relatively few media into an automated archive. The bulk loading method is preferred if there are a relatively large amounts of media to be entered. For specific automated archives, the enter or unsolicited enter operations are allowed by VolServ.
