VSCMD_
Checkin VSCMD_Checkin checks media into the VolServ system.
Only media that have been previously checked out can be
checked in.
Checkin is a logical operation. After a medium is logically
checked into the VolServ system, the medium must be
physically entered into an archive before becoming available
for client use (mounting,…).
A medium is physically entered into the VolServ system via the
Enter functionality available from the appropriate archive's
console display. The Enter functionality is not available through
the API interface.
If a destination archive is not specified on a VSCMD_Checkin
request, the media are returned to the archive where they were
checked-out.
