Each type of media supported by FileServ has a default media
length specified in the system parameters;
-DEF_MED_SPC_mediatype. If two media of the same type
have a different length, the -l option of the fsmedin
command overrides the default value. For example, if two
libraries are used the default media length can only apply to one
library. Therefore, whenever adding blank media to the other
library, the -l option must be used.
Step 1. Before new media is introduced to the storage
subsystem, a barcode label must be applied to the
outer edge of the media. If the label on media is
marred when the media is entered, the media is
automatically ejected from the storage subsystems.
In this case, remove and replace the label. Blank
media are entered by the VolServ operator using the
Import command and the MediaClass
F#_XXX_ADDBLANK.
Step 2. Run the fsmedin command with the -b option.
Step 3. Specify the -q quantity option to enter a specific
quantity of media. The maximum number that can
be specified is 99.
Step 4. Define the media type (-t)tobeused.Themedia
type is required for a system that handles multiple
media types.
