To automatically generate a list of volume names in the Volume List, set the Fill Count to the desired
number of volumes. Set the Fill Increment to the number by which each automatically generated label
should differ from the previous one. Then type the starting volume name into the Volume Label field.
The specified number of volume names will be added to the Volume List, each one larger than the
previous entry by the specified Fill Increment.
Example:
Fill Count = 6
Fill Increment = 10
Volume Label = "AA0070"
Labels automatically inserted into Volume List table:
"AA0070"
"AA0080"
"AA0090"
"AA0100"
"AA0110"
"AA0120"

alphabetic columns and vice versa.
Example:
Fill Count = 6
Fill Increment = 2000

Labels automatically inserted into Volume List table:
"AA7329"
"AA9329"
"AB1329"
“AB3329”
“AB5329”
“AB7329”
