-====== Add Remove Flags Based Off Last Read Time ======
+====== Add Or Remove Flags Based Off Last Read Time ======
-Add or Remove Flags based off last read time of Volumes using TMSS10ModifyFlags and a config file.
+Add or Remove [[common:volume_flags|Flags]] based off last read time of [[object:volume|Volumes]] using [[cli:tmss10modifyflags|TMSS10ModifyFlags]] and a config file.
-The process involves TMSS10ModifyFlags loading an input file, using a definition file, to extract the Volume-ID's.  The Volume-ID's are then filtered using the configuration file and adding any qualifying Volumes to a scan file.
+One purpose of this method allows you to lock any [[object:volume|Volumes]] in your Library that have been recalled for data restoration and then automatically remove the move lock once the last read time passes a set number of days.  The Sync can then place the [[object:volume|Volumes]] in a move back to the Offsite Vault until the data expires.
-The scan file is then processed, adding or removing the defined Flags against the scan list Volumes.

+Configuration file sets definition file for translating and extracting [[object:volume|Volume-ID's]] and filters input by [[object:customer|Customer-ID]] (0002), [[object:media|Media-ID]] (LTO).  The last read time is then compared to the lastreadtime filter, if the last read time is 30 or more days ago, the [[object:volume|Volume]] is added to the scan file, if not it is discarded.
