Prepare Media to be the Backup Volume
Running the installation script created a Backup Volume entry
in the AMASS File System Database. To prepare media to be
the specified Backup Volume, perform the steps in the
following table.
The Backup Volume must be identified as volume number 1 and
have an INACTIVE status in the AMASS File System
Database. An INACTIVE status means that AMASS cannot
read or write to the volume.
Slot Position
AMASS assumes the Backup Volume is in either the first or last
slot, depending on the library; therefore no slot designation is
required. If you have more than one library connected to
AMASS, put the Backup Volume in the last slot in the first
library. The Backup Volume in network-attached libraries can
be in any slot so a slot designation is required.
Note
For detailed information on the AMASS commands, see the
"Command Reference" chapter.
