Note You may want to set this option before writing labels to the virtual tapes from the
host server. After writing the labels, edit the pool to disable this option.
8. If you select Autoloading, you can then select the Recycle checkbox, which enables the
pool to autoload indefinitely without user intervention. A pool can automatically cycle
back to the first virtual tape in the autoloader when the last virtual tape is unloaded. This
feature provides continuous and unattended operation for almost any application.
If this checkbox is not selected, the virtual tape drive is unmounted after it reaches the
last virtual tape in the pool.
9. If the SecureVTS feature is enabled, you can select the Encrypted checkbox to encrypt
all cartridges that are added to the pool. See
Using SecureVTS on page 53 for more
information about this feature.
10. Click the CREATE button.
11. Click OK when prompted to confirm the creation of the pool.
You can click the pool drop-down list to confirm that the pool was created. When you return to
the Virtual Media - Operation page, the new pool is listed and a red dot is displayed to the left
of its name. This symbol indicates that the pool is present but contains no virtual tapes. (The
+ symbol indicates that virtual tapes are contained in this pool.)
