1.1.9. Additional hpssadm operations
•Import/export
•Create/delete resources
•Task monitoring. A new "task" command displays the status of any long running background tasks submitted during the session, such as imports or resource creates.
•Specifying volumes from a file for import/export/delete/move. hpssadm, like the GUI, now allows the user to submit a file listing the target volumes for import, export, delete resources, and cartridge move operations. This is an alternative to the previous capability of building the list on the screen with the Fill Count, Fill Increment, and Volume Label fields, which is still provided. As a result of adding this capability, the group labels on the structures have changed so scripts which use the old method to specify the volume list will need a slight modification. See the hpssadm man page for examples.
