The first form of the import
command sends a
request to the automated library specified by eq to
import media. The cartridge is placed in the first available slot
in the library. For example:
import 27
The second form of the import
command can be used only
when eq is the Equipment Identifier of the default historian
(7)
and the cartridge is neither two-sided nor partitioned.
This form adds an entry to the historian's catalog
for the given type and the given barcode or volser.
At least one of
the -b
barcode or -v
volser identifiers must
be present. For example:
import -b 007001 -m lt 27
This command accepts several options.
Some of the options affect only certain automated libraries.
See the option descriptions and the NOTES section for information pertinent
to vendor-specific automated libraries.
The options for the import
command are as follows:
-b
barcodeThe barcode assigned to the cartridge.
If the second form of the command is used, either
a -v
volser or a -b
barcode option is required.
-c
num -s
pool(Network-attached StorageTek automated libraries only.)
For StorageTek automated libraries using the first form of the
import
command, either a -v
volser identifier
or a -c
num -s
pool identifier must be used.
If used, the
-c
num and -s
pool
options must be specified together.
The -c
num option specifies the number of volumes to be
taken from the scratch pool specified by the -s
pool option.
The -s
pool option specifies the scratch pool from
which num volumes should be taken and added to the catalog.
-e
Specifies that all newly added cartridges be audited. This includes an EOD search and updating the catalog with actual capacity and space-remaining values.
-L
The -L
option requests that the new volume be marked as LTFS media.
-l
(Network-attached StorageTek automated libraries only.)
The -l
option requests that the new VSN numbers be written to
standard output. If present, this option must be specified in
conjunction with the -c
num and -s
pool options.
-m
typeThe media type of the cartridge.
For more information on valid media type codes, see
the mcf
(4) man page.
-n
Specifies that the media is unlabeled foreign tape (not Oracle HSM media). It is write protected and can be only used for read access.
-v
volser(Network-attached StorageTek automated libraries only.)
This option creates a catalog entry with volser as the barcode. Physical import and export of cartridges within StorageTek libraries are performed by utilities supplied by the vendor.
The Equipment Identifier as entered in the mcf
file.
For more information on the mcf
file, see the mcf
(4) man page.
If the first form of the import
command is used,
eq must be the equipment identifier of an automated libarary.
If the second form of the import
command is used,
eq must be the equipment number of the default historian.
If you are using the first form of the command with
a network-attached StorageTek automated library,
you can identify the cartridge being imported by using either
the -v
volser option or by using the -s
pool
and -c
num options together.
