Moving Volumes By MoveDate
TapeTrack, using Server Utilities, can automatically move Volumes to their Next Repository when the set MoveDate comes within the scope set.
Prerequisites
All Repositories that are included in the scope of the Volumes that will be targeted for automated must have a Next Repository set in their Properties tab in TapeMaster. This is the Repository that the Volumes will be placed in a move to.
Identifying Volumes To Move
Executing TMSS10ExpireByDate will identify all Volumes within the scope set that qualify to be moved. Any qualifying Volumes will have a p flag added.
Moving Volumes
Executing TMSS10MovePending will identify all Volumes, within the scope set, and place them in a move to that Repository's Next Repository.
Creating Move Lists
Using TMSS10MoveList you can create an output file (text, Excel, CSV or PDF) of all Volumes that are currently in a Move status.
These reports can be filtered to only include the relevant information you require. They can be filtered by:
- Customer-ID
- Media-ID
- Volume-ID
- Current Repository-ID
- Target Repository-ID
- Volume Flags
If required you can also remove columns from the report that are not required, creating a cleaner report with only relevant information required, eg a picking list for Tape staff only may only require the Volume-ID and location.
