Managing Import/Export Volumes

This section contains information on managing Import/Export volumes in VTS
systems that are Import/Export capable.

Manage Unassigned Volumes

This panel will be automatically presented when the library is in Import mode and
volumes of J-type media have been input into the library via the Convenience
Input⁄Output Station. This panel allows the operator to move Exported Stacked
Volumes in the Unassigned category to the Import category. This is an essential
step during a VTS import operation. The operator can also move other physical
volumes (J-type, HPCT) to the Insert category or eject them from the library. The
“Unassigned” volumes are presented in the list box titled “Unassigned”.

The following are the push-buttons:

Select All

Selects all volumes within the current list box.

De-select All

De-selects all volumes within the current list box.

Import

Moves the selected volumes to the Import category list box.

Unassigned

Insert Moves the selected volumes to the Insert category list box.

Eject

Moves the selected volumes to the Eject category list box.
