Importing Cartridges via Web Client

1 Select Operations > Media > Import.

2 If more than one partition exists, select the partition into which you

want to import cartridges and click Next.

3 The Import Media - Partition (Mode) screen displays, where

Partition is the name of the partition and Mode is the current mode

of the partition. This screen contains a list of cartridges in the I/E

station that are ready for import.

4 Identify the number of empty storage slots that appear in the

Empty Partition Slots field. The number of cartridges you can

import is limited to the number of empty slots that exist in the

partition.

5 Select the cartridges to import into the partition.

Note: You can select all cartridges by selecting the top check box.

You can use the Filter by Barcode text box to filter the

available cartridge barcodes. Click the Help button next to

the Find button for more information about filtering

barcodes. In addition, if not all cartridges appear on the

screen, use the Page 1 of x arrows to view the additional

cartridges.

Note: Bold column headings in the table can be sorted. For

example, selecting the Location column heading will sort

by location coordinates.

6 Click Apply.

7 Click OK to confirm it is OK to take the partition offline.

The library imports the tape cartridge(s) into the first empty slot(s)

in the partition.

Bulk Loading Tape

Cartridges

Bulk loading is another way to load media into the library. If zero I/E

station slots are configured, you will always need to bulk load cartridges

into the library. If I/E station slots have been configured, you may want

to perform an initial bulk load when you first start using your library.

The library will perform an inventory after the bulk load is complete.
