VSCMD_
Import VSCMD_Import is issued to request execution of VolServ
Import requests.
A client uses Import requests to logically add media to the
VolServ system. Upon receipt of an Import request, the
specified media are added to the VolServ system. If a
non-unique media identifier is specified, the Import for that
medium fails.
Import is a logical operation. Media must be physically entered
into an archive before they are available for client use
(mounting,"…"). Entry is performed by an operator selecting
the Enter function from the appropriate archive's console
display. The Enter function is not available from the API.
