Highwater Offset

The Repository Option Highwater Offset lowers the Slot allocation below the total number of Slots currently allocated to this Repository.

The main purpose of this function is to automatically move any Volumes assigned to any Slots above the highwater mark to be placed in a move to the available empty Slots below the highwater mark.

For example if the total allocation of Slots to this Repository is 500, setting the Highwater Offset to 100 will stop TMSS10SlotAllocation assigning any Volumes above Slot 400 (ie 500 total Slots - 100 Highwater Offset Slots = 400 assignable Slots (1 to 400)).

To set the Highwater mark, right click the required Repository and select 'Properties'.

Set the highgwater mark to the required value. If not already enabled set Enable Slotting to True to ensure re-slotting is executed when TMSS10SlotAllocation is executed, either manually or scheduled.
