2.9.2DESCRIPTION

This FSE command manages a single FSE medium. It is used to perform these FSE administrator’s tasks:

configure a new or remove an existing FSE medium,

list barcodes and status information for configured media in the FSE imple- mentation,

show status information for medium volumes on configured FSE media,

format and/or initialize a configured FSE medium,

change an FSE medium status to unreliable, unusable, or remove either of these two statuses (change the status to "good"),

mark an FSE medium volume as full and handle its Fast Recovery Informa- tion appropriately,

recreate missing Fast Recovery Information on disk from the migrated meta– data,

duplicate a medium to a medium of the same tape (copy all data and Fast Recovery Information from the source to the target medium),

reorganize a medium or specified medium volumes preserving only the data that was determined as valid during the reorganizational scan job,

recreate a redundant copy of the unreadable data located on damaged FSE media.

Each FSE command communicates with the FSE processes through the Management Interface (fse–mif). To execute an FSE command, the Management Interface must be running. If the connection to the Management Interface fails, check its status by running the fse – –statuscommand. In case the Management Interface is not running, start it with the fse – –startcommand.

After a successful command execution fsemedium notifies the FSE administrator with a suitable message, which is printed to the standard output stream (stdout). If there was an error during the command execution, an appropriate error message is printed to the standard error stream (stderr).
