ACL Application Programmer’s Guide aclSetParam
AutoImport 8XX – Sets the Auto Import Enable configuration parameter to on
(1) or off (0, default).
The ACL detects the presence of a tape cartridge when it is inserted
into an IMEX bin. When the Auto Import Enable configuration
parameter is set to on, the ACL automatically transfers the tape
cartridge to the next available Storage Element, starting from
address 1000.
When the Auto Import Enable configuration parameter is set to off,
this functionality is suppressed and the initiator must use the
aclMoveCartridge() or aclMoveVolume() function to transfer the
tape cartridge to a storage bin (or tape drive).
ENVIRONMENT
When the $RETRY_ON_RESET environment variable is set, all libacl functions
automatically perform one retry when a failure is caused by a SCSI Bus Device Reset of the
ACL.
RETURN VALUES
Exit status codes are:
0 DST_SUCCESS.
-1 DST_FAILURE.
