Once the import has completed successfully, the cartridge is in the mail slot. Use the backup

Scheduled jobs (Tape Attach)

This page provides a 3-step wizard that allows you to create, edit and delete schedules for export
and copy operations. You can also run a job immediately, rather than wait until its next scheduled
time.
Five types of schedule are allowed: daily, weekly, day of month, weekday of month and after write.
The After Write option runs the job immediately after the cartridge has been written. Up to 50 schedules
may be created.
