Parameter

 

 

 

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

eject_area

 

 

 

Logical area defined in AML, where the cartridges should be

 

 

 

 

ejected

 

 

 

 

 

 

volser_ranges

 

 

 

• a single volser

 

 

 

 

• multiple volsers separated by commas

 

 

 

 

• a range of volsers separated by a hyphen

 

 

 

 

 

 

types

 

 

 

media type of the named volser

 

 

 

 

Refer to Media Types on page 2-7

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The database entry for the volume is not deleted, and the

 

 

 

 

 

position in the AML that the volume occupied remains

 

 

 

 

 

reserved for insertion of a volume with a matching volser.

 

 

 

 

 

This could be useful if the volume is temporarily ejected and

 

 

 

 

 

will be inserted in the near future. In such case, the position

 

 

 

 

 

remains reserved and the volume’s location within the AML

 

 

 

 

 

does not change.

 

 

 

 

 

The eject will stop, when the eject area is full. The request will

 

 

 

 

 

either be cancelled or completed after the area is marked

 

 

 

 

 

empty depending on the DAS_EJECTAREAFULL

 

 

 

 

 

environment variable.

 

 

 

 

 

das_eject_complete

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The asi_async_add function with the das_eject_complete

 

 

 

 

 

parameter ejects volumes and removes the database entries.

 

 

 

 

 

See Figure 5-8.

aci_async_add (das_eject_complete, eject_area, volser_range, type)

Figure 5-8aci_async_add Function with the das_eject_complete Parameter

Eject the volumes in volser_range to the eject_area. The media type of the volumes must match that of the eject_area. Set type to the media type of the volser_range. The database entry for the volume is deleted, and the position in the AML that the volume occupied becomes free. This could be useful if the volume is to be placed in long-term archive storage or more

Server specifications

ADIC Server, short for Advanced Data Interoperability and Communication Server, is a modern server platform designed to facilitate seamless data exchanges, interoperability, and communication among various applications and systems. Tailored for organizations that require robust data management solutions, ADIC Server stands out due to its unique features and flexibility.

One of the main features of ADIC Server is its comprehensive data integration capabilities. It supports a wide array of data formats, including JSON, XML, and CSV, allowing organizations to connect diverse data sources effortlessly. This flexibility is critical in a data-driven world, ensuring that businesses can leverage their data regardless of where it resides.

ADIC Server also boasts a rich set of APIs, enabling developers to create custom applications and integrations without extensive overhead. This feature allows businesses to extend their existing systems and ensure that they can adapt their operations quickly to meet ever-changing market demands.

In terms of technology, ADIC Server is built on a microservices architecture, which ensures scalability and reliability. Each microservice can operate independently, allowing organizations to scale specific components of the system according to their needs. This modular approach also promotes resilience, as failure in one service does not directly impact the entire server functionality.

Security is another hallmark of ADIC Server. The platform incorporates advanced encryption protocols and authentication mechanisms to safeguard sensitive data transactions. Role-based access control (RBAC) ensures that data is only accessible to authorized personnel, thus significantly reducing the risk of data breaches.

Another characteristic deserving mention is the server's exceptional performance. ADIC Server is optimized for high throughput and low latency, making it suitable for real-time data processing. Organizations can rely on the server to handle large volumes of data from various sources without compromising speed or efficiency.

Moreover, its user-friendly interface and robust monitoring tools facilitate effective management and troubleshooting. Administrators can easily track performance metrics, identify bottlenecks, and ensure optimal operation of the server.

In conclusion, ADIC Server represents a cutting-edge solution for organizations striving to enhance data interoperability and communication. With its integration capabilities, scalable architecture, security features, and performance optimization, it stands as a dependable choice for businesses looking to leverage their data assets more effectively.
