Data store de-activation
As additional control, a data store can be de-activated by configuration. This will
disable all automated actions and most manual actions on the data store – especially
the requests to load tape volumes will be rejected.
The catalog export and import functions initiated through the GUI will still be allowed
on de-activated data stores.
