Commands
If a specified or selected drive was previously locked and the
vsmount request does not specify a lock identifier, VolServ
returns a message to the client that the selected drive is locked
and VolServ is waiting for the drive to become unlocked to
continue execution of the command.
If the vsmount request specifies a MediaClass group and the -n
newmediaclass option is specified, the reclassify to a different
MediaClass group occurs only after VolServ selects the media
to satisfy the vsmount request. Only the selected media is
reclassified. The remaining media in the MediaClass group are
not reclassified.
• If the -n newmediaclass option is specified, the receiving
MediaClass group is checked for compatible media type, as
well as for adequate room for another media (i.e., fill level
less than capacity).
• If either of these conditions is not satisfied, the vsmount
request fails.
A pending vsmount request (waiting for a drive or media) is
cancelled with the VolServ Cancel request. The VolServ cancel
command is run from the command line by sending a SIGQUIT
signal (control-\). The request also is aborted by sending the
SIGINT signal (control-c).
The
vsmount request fails if no specified drive is online.
If media or drive is specified and either the media or drive (or
both) are presently in use, the vsmount request waits for
resources and a message is returned to the client that indicates
the reason for the delay.
When specifying a drive pool that contains drives that support
different types of media, only those drives that support the
media type of the media specified in the vsmount request are
considered for selection.
