View Status for One Element
Be careful when you ask for the status for a single element
because the output could be misleading, as illustrated in this
example.
To display the inventory for one element, perform the following
steps:
Step 1. Log in as root.
Step 2. Using the previous example, we request an inventory
for home storage slot 0A01 in library number 2:
The output is similar to the following example:
# su root
# cd /usr/amass/utils
# medialist -s 0A01 -j 2
SLOT 0A01 EMPTY
Because the output says “EMPTY” you would assume that home
storage slot 0A01 is available.
However, the media that is normally in slot 0A01 is currently in drive
1. We know this because of the output from the previous example
that stated “DRIVE 1 SCSI_ID 5 FULL FROM 0A01 INVERTED.”
