VTSPolicy IDR Command
The VTSPolicy IDR command allows the automatic launch of an Instant/DR or AutoCopy procedure
directly from a NonStop server “obey” file. An EMS message is sent by including a TACL macro into the
obey file for this purpose.
The format of the VTSPolicy IDR command is:
VTSPolicy IDR jobname
Where jobname is the name of an IDR job defined and saved using the Virtual TapeServer GUI
Instant/DR drop-down menu on the Virtual Media Operations screen.
VTSPolicy Delete Command
The VTSPolicy Delete command allows the automatic delete of specific volumes. A script will query the
Mediacom and TMFcom databases for scratch media and generate the VTSPolicy command when the
script is executed.
VTSPolicy Delete ‘ volume volume…’
For up to 10 volumes delimited by spaces.
VTSPolicy Erase Command
The VTSPolicy Erase command allows the automatic erase of specific volumes. A script will query the
Mediacom and TMFcom databases for scratch media and generate the VTSPolicy command when the
script is executed.
VTSPolicy Erase ‘ A00001 A00002…’
For up to 10 volumes delimited by spaces. This VTSPolicy is case-sensitive.
