Automated Tape Caching; Set Tape Caching - Sun Microsystems Virtual Tape Library User Manual

Automated tape caching
‐k (‐‐key‐name), ‐W (‐‐key‐password) and ‐d (‐‐disable‐key) are options for tape
encryption support to be set in conjunction with Auto‐Archive Mode. Specify the
key name and key password of the encryption key if you wish to encrypt the data
when exporting the virtual tape to the physical tape. Specify ‐d (‐‐disable‐key) if you
wish to disable tape encryption for this tape.
‐Z (‐‐tape‐duplication) is an option to set the Tape Duplication property with one of
the following values: on (enable), off (disable), or inherit.
‐Q (‐‐num‐of‐copies) is an option to specify the number of copies to be made using
the same barcode if the tape duplication option is enabled. The maximum value is 5.
The default value is 1.
Tape Duplication can be enabled only if the virtual library hosting the virtual tape
has the Tape Caching property enabled or the virtual tape has the Auto Archive
property enabled.
At least one of the properties has to be specified.
‐X (‐‐rpc‐timeout) is an option to specify a number between 1 and 30000 in seconds
for the RPC timeout. The system will retry the command for the amount of time
specified if the server does not respond. The default RPC timeout is 30 seconds.
