a successful import and goes on to the next volume in the list. This makes it easy to restart a partially
completed import (after fixing the cause of the error which terminated the first request) by clicking the
Import button again. There is no need to remove from the list the volumes which were imported
successfully.
The list of the volumes to be imported may be constructed in any of three ways. Each volume name may
be typed in one at a time, or a list of volume names may be automatically generated from a single entry,
or a list of volume names may be specified from an input file. Volume names are not typed directly into
the Volume List at the bottom of the window.
Any of the three entry methods may be repeated multiple times on the same window to add additional
volumes to the list. All three entry methods or any combination of them may be used in succession on the
same window.
To add a single volume name to the Volume List, set the Fill Count and the Fill Increment each to 1
and type the volume name into the Volume Label field. The volume name will be added to the Volume
List.
To automatically generate a list of volume names in the Volume List, set the Fill Count to the desired
number of volumes. Set the Fill Increment to the number by which each automatically generated label
should differ from the previous one. Then type the starting volume name into the Volume Label field.
The specified number of volume names will be added to the Volume List, each one larger than the
previous entry by the specified Fill Increment.
Example:
Fill Count = 6
Fill Increment = 10
Volume Label = "AA0070"
Labels automatically inserted into Volume List:
"AA0070"
"AA0080"
"AA0090"
"AA0100"
"AA0110"
"AA0120"
When an addition produces overflow in a column, numerical columns are carried over properly to
alphabetic columns and vice versa.
Example:
Fill Count = 6
Fill Increment = 2000
Volume Label= "AA7329"
Labels automatically inserted into Volume List:
"AA7329"
"AA9329"
"AB1329"
“AB3329”
