Viewing EDLM Test Sessions and Report Details
You can view the status of all your EDLM test sessions, including
sessions that are queued but not started yet, in the EDLM Test Sessions
List screen. You can stop, pause, resume, or delete test sessions. See
Working with the EDLM Test Sessions List on page 348.
Each entry in the EDLM Test Sessions List screen presents an overview of
a single EDLM test session. A test session includes all tapes in the library
that were scheduled to be scanned at a particular point in time. Thus, a
test session can include multiple tapes from different partitions.
• Example 1: You select 10 tapes on which to perform a manual scan.
The test session includes 10 tapes.
• Example 2: Partition A has an automatic scan policy to scan tapes
on import. You import a tape. Meanwhile, Partition B has an
automatic scan policy to scan every 180 days. Ten tapes in that
partition have reached the 180-day mark at the same time that you
import the tape into Partition A. Because these automatic scans
occur at the same time, the test session includes all 11 tapes from
both partitions.
Within each test session, you view details about each tape that was
scanned (see Viewing EDLM Session Report Details on page 351).
