Restricting Which Volume-ID's Can Be Moved To A Repository.

TapeTrack allows the restriction of what volumes can be moved to a repository based on a pattern specified in the Repository properties.

Setting Volume-ID Restrictions

Open the required repository's properties and navigate to the Options tab.

Click in the field to the right of Allowable Volume-ID's and enter allowable volumes string pattern.

Restricting volume-ID patterns can be enforced using TapeTrack string filters.

Character filters may be used alone or in combination to achieve the restricted volume-ID pattern required

Example Patterns

Volume ID required Filter Pattern Example Volume-ID
Only volumes ending in L5 *L5 100001L5
Anything except volumes ending in L5 !*L5 100002L6
Volumes ending in L5 or starting with X- *(*L5X-*) X-2E8CA12F
