Active Vault
The Active Vault feature allows you to keep tape cartridges vaulted
within a physical library, rather than having to move them to other
onsite or offsite locations. These cartridges are stored in an “Active
Vault” partition that is not managed by a host and contains no tape
drives. You can configure policies on standard partitions to redirect SSCI
host initiated tape cartridge export MOVE operations directly to an
Active Vault partition, or you can configure a plug-in to query an
external application where the export move operation is intended for an
Active Vault partition. Additionally, Active Vault partitions can be
enabled for EDLM policies that provide for regularly timed media scan
operations.
