Backup and
Restore with
Stacker Devices
Only the first medium has to be manually loaded. When a tape is full, it
is ejected and the next tape is loaded automatically. When all the tapes
are used in a stacker magazine, the magazine has to be unmounted
manually and the next one has to be inserted. Again the first tape has to
be loaded manually into the drive.
NOTE A backup or restore session will not be aborted if media are not present,
but a mount request will be issued instead. The whole session will not be
aborted if a user does not change stacker magazines within a time out
period.
