process. For best performance, optical disks should be pre-erased before each
backup.
-force
Overrides the initialization safety checks. By default, a medium containing
protected data or being in a non-Data Protector format cannot be initialized.
-pool PoolName
Specifies the name of the media pool to which this medium will be added. If no
PoolName is specified, the medium is added to the default pool for the specified
backup device.
-slot SlotID [Side]
Specifies the SlotID of the exchanger backup device where the medium is
mounted. This option is only valid for this backup device type, but must be given
for MO devices. To specify the side of the platter in this slot, use the additional
Side parameter. Values of Side are A or B.
-size n
Specifies the medium capacity in MB. If not specified, Data Protector uses the
standard capacity of the media class used with the backup device selected for
initialization. The size is later used to calculate the free space remaining on the
medium. (FreeSpace = Size - SpaceUsed)
-location OffSiteLoc
Specifies the location of the medium. This information is useful if media is stored
off-site. The location can have maximum 32 characters. Any printable character,
including spaces, can be used. The text must be enclosed in quotation marks.
-wipe_on_init
Wipes the data on medium after it has been initialized. This is done by
overwriting the data on medium so it is impossible to restore the original data
on medium after it has been wiped.
-barcode_as_label
Data Protector uses barcode as a medium label during the initialization of the
medium instead of generating media labels based on the media pools names.
This option is supported only on library devices with enabled barcode support.
-no_barcode_as_label
Data Protector does not use barcodes as a medium label during the initialization
of the medium, but generates media labels based on the media pools names.
This option can be used to override the Use barcode as medium label
on initializationoption (if it is selected) in the library properties in the
Data Protector GUI.
