Remove Media

Step 1.

Run the fsmedout command with the media

 

 

identifiers and the -roption for the media to be

 

 

checked out. The -tlabeltext option is not supported

 

 

at this time.

 

Step 2.

The physical location of the media (-llocation) is

 

 

used for tracking the media and is limited to 255

 

 

characters.

 

 

Media are logically checked out of the FileServ

 

 

system.

 

Step 3.

Contact the VolServ operator to complete the

 

 

operation and to obtain the media.

Add Blank Media

FileServ uses the fsmedin -bcommand to logically enter

 

blank media into FileServ software.

Note

For more information on the fsmedin command, refer to the

Command Reference book.

Blank media can be added to the general blank pool or to a specific DataClass group pool. Blank media in the general blank pool are available for use in any DataClass group. Blank media in the DataClass group pool are only available for use by that particular DataClass group.

The quantity of media being added can be optionally entered as an argument of the fsmedin -bcommand. The quantity option is primarily used when a specific number, less than the value specified by the system VS_DEF_QUANTITY parameter, is needed.
