Note for linking
If practically the same number of drives is configured for the robots in dual save, restores
can be optimized through the following distribution and crossed-over PVG sequence:
Example of linking
LVG1 PVG1 PVG2
LVG2 PVG2 PVG1
Distribution to two LVGs with a crossed-over PVG sequence ensures that all drives are
available for restores. The restore times can thus be considerably reduced (but not in all
cases; e.g. multiple restores of one PV).

Physical Volume Operations » Add Physical Volumes
This function is not available in Observe mode.
The specified physical volumes are added to the selected physical volume group. If more
than one volume is to be added, then the volume serial number of the next volume is
generated by incrementing the final digit of the entered VSN. This means that a sufficient
number of digits must be defined as digits at the end of the VSN. If insufficient digits are
present then the entire job is rejected.
The volumes must previously have been introduced into the tape archive. For infor-
mation on how to do this, refer to the instructions for the robot archive in question.
