When Volume are added, moved or altered by default TapeTrack adds entries to the journal database and historical records for that volume.

If moves are required, for example moving a Volume from one location to another within your racking, journal records would cause the client to be charged for the move that is not billable. Temporarily turning off the journal and/or historical records can bypass this issue.

Stop the Framework Server.

Disabling the journal entries is achieved by adding an attribute to the registry entry for the Framework Sever. Once you have a current backup of the registry, navigate to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\TMSS10SVC in Registry Editor.

Double click on the Image Path to open up the Edit String window.

At the end of the Value data string, add the string required to disable the journal entries for the required Customer-ID's based on the following examples and click OK to commit the changes.

Disable journal entries for all Customers:

"C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\TMSS10Server.exe" -J #DiSaBlE

If you have replication disabled on your server, the registry entry will have a -X option, if this is the case simply add the -J option after that.

"C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\TMSS10Server.exe" -X -J #DiSaBlE

Disable journal entries for all Customer US01:

"C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\TMSS10Server.exe" -J US01

Disable journal entries for all Customers US01 and US03:

"C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\TMSS10Server.exe" -J "*(US01|US03)"

Start the Framework Server.
