ems_vaults_ 
NSserver
Restricts access to vaults from 
any hosts.
_ANYSYS is not valid here. 
This list of permitted vaults 
should be specified as a space-
delimited list. For any host, if 
there are no vaults specified 
here then all vaults are 
accessible. Leading slashes in 
the vault list are optional.

ems_resetdevs_ 
NSserver
Specifies the list of tape names 
as known to the host system for 
which we will issue a reset 
before each mount. The 
ems_mount_reset parameter 
is a global override for this and 
must be enabled for the 
ems_resetdevs parameter to 
take effect. You can also specify 
ALL instead of a list of tapes. If 
_ANYSYS is specified for 
NSserver, only ALL is 
recognized.
