3-30 Initial Configuration 601354 Rev A
If the media type low mark threshold is not reached after the
first iteration, the process continues by selecting the next
eligible archive media class and testing its fill level. If the
subject archive media class fill level is above its low mark,
some of its media is placed on the source archive eject list.
When the AO ejects a medium from the source archive, the
destination archive enter list is appended with that same
medium. Then the destination archive Console display ENTER
button is highlighted.
Media type migration continues until one of the following
occurs:
• The media type fill level reaches the media type low mark
threshold.
• All archive media classes are exhausted of their supply of
eligible media (that is, all of their low marks are reached).
• The AO removes the media from the eject list.
The reasons for discontinuing media type migration are the
same as for media class migration.
Intransit Media
(Migrate)
During migration, media that are ejected from the source
archive but not entered in the target archive are placed in the
intransit state. This state indicates that media are known by
VolServ software but are not actually resident in an archive.
