Preparing the library for Data Verification

The Data Verification feature provides an automated process to validate media readability and data
integrity of backup data cartridges. Data Verification is a feature of Command View that is supported by
the library and requires a license to be installed on the Command View TL management station. Data
Verification is only supported with Command View TL 3.8 and newer versions. For more information on
Data Verification, see the HPE Command View for Tape Libraries User Guide on the Command View TL
website.
The Data Verification feature uses a partition called "DVP" for the storage slots and tape drives used for
Data Verification. Command View TL moves the cartridges between the storage slots and tape drives in
the DVP partition for media verification read purposes. When Command View TL is performing move
operations, the library RMI and other library partitions can still be used. This partition is created and
configured from the Command View TL interface.
Before enabling Data Verification with Command View TL, prepare the library by freeing up resources
needed for the DVP partition and creating a private network for the tape drives and library.
Procedure
1. Use the Expert Partition Wizard to prepare the library for the data verification partition.
