Actions linked with “OK”

In the event on an Erase, the first record of the volume (tape header) is overwritten in such
a way that the entire contents of the volume can no longer be accessed using CentricStor
resources.

When removing the cleaning cartridges, the number of cleaning cycles that remain are
modified if the cartridge has not been used completely.

You must make sure that the deletion of the volumes does not result in the number

of empty volumes falling below the minimum level. If this occurs a warning will be
output.

Before removing volumes from the archive physically, you must remove them
logically from the PLM data maintenance system. This process can take some time
since each volume must be

loaded into a drive so that its tape header can be

overwritten. If the “ReorganizeFirst” flag is set, you must also add the time required
for reorganization. With “Show Physical Volumes” you can determine whether the
action has been completed.
