TMSS10MoveScratch [-C scratch capacity] [-R target repository] [-S logon string] [-V volume filter] [-a skip move] [-b skip scratch] [-c config file] [-m scratch maximum]

Resets the Scratch Flag of each Volume and move Scratch Volumes to another Repository.

TMSS10MoveScratch is used to manage Scratch Volumes, it performs 3 functions:

1. Moves all Volumes with a Scratch Flag to the Repository specified in the -R argument.
2. Sets the Scratch Flag for all Volumes.
3. Lists all Volumes with a Scratch Flag.

This command is particularly helpful for platforms such as Tivoli Storage Manager, which deletes Scratch Volume from its Volume Table, as you can schedule the command to run once per week to reset all Volumes to Scratch then remove the Scratch Flag using TMSS10Sync during the week. Then when the program is run subsequently the next week, it will move each Volume that still has the Scratch Flag set to a new Repository.

• -C Scratch capacity of Target Repository (default = 1000)
• -R Target Repository where Scratch Volumes will be moved to.
• -S The Logon string argument sets the Server Logon Information
• -V Volume Filter which can be used to filter the traversal of Customer, Media, Volume, Repository and Flag values.
• -a Skip move step (default = false)
• -b Skip Scratch step (default = false)
• -c The config file argument specifies the path to the Batch Configuration File. The Batch Configuration File allows you to perform advanced traversal of Customer, Media and Volumes, perform advanced barcode pre and post processing and route program output to syslogd. Configuration File capabilities vary from program to program but the syntax remains the same. In the event that logic is not supported it will simply be ignored.
• -m Scratch maximum ( default = 1000000)

TMSSSERVERPROXY: If defined the program will route all TapeTrack TCP/IP traffic through a HTTPS proxy. The value of the variable should be in the format user:password@host:port. To debug the proxy connection use variable TMSSAPILOGDIR.

TMSSAPILOGDIR: If defined the program will write out a trace file to this directory.

TMSSPWPATH: When no password value is passed in the logonstring the program will look for the password in file \etc\tapetrack\user, where user is the user value passed in the logonstring. If you wish to change this default path, you can set the path in TMSSPWPATH.

stdout: Output Reports.
stderr: Diagnostic messages.
stdin: Program input.

Move maximum of 1 Scratch Volume to Repository LIBR for Customer US04, Media LTO and set Scratch Flag for the rest of Volumes.
