Options for GFS Job

This step of the wizard is available if you selected a GFS media pool at the Full Backup step of the wizard.

In the Media Automation section, specify options for automatic operations after finishing the job:

  • Select the Eject media upon job completion check box if the tape should be automatically ejected from the tape drive and placed into a free tape device slot when the job finishes.

This option does not prevent the tape job from appending data to this tape. If not configured otherwise in media pool settings, this tape will be placed into a drive on the next tape job run.

  • Select the Export the following media sets upon job completion check box if you want to pull out the tapes with some media sets from the tape device, for example, to move to a storage location. The tape device will eject the tapes that belong to the selected media set.

Click Media sets and select the media sets that you want to export.

If the media pool, which is the target for the tape job, uses parallel processing, you can limit the number of drives to use for processing this tape job. To enable this, select the Limit the number of drives this job can use to N tape drives check box and specify the number of drives to use. For more information on how to enable parallel processing for the media pool, see Add Optional Media Pool Settings.

Click Advanced to configure the advanced job options.
