usage time, and usage count.
Upon receipt of a Query Mount request, VolServ determines
which archive contains the specified medium.
If the specified medium is not in an archive, a null list of drives
is returned to the client.
If the medium is in an archive, VolServ determines which
drives in that archive are suitable for mounting the specified
medium. The list of suitable drives is returned to the client in
the Query Mount status.
