Overview
RemoteAdmin operations are organized into the following categories:
•
Basic Operations — activities that are performed for day-to-day management. Basic opera-
tions include verifying, erasing, and ejecting the physical tape, removing the virtual tape,
importing a physical tape, and changing virtual tape name and bar code settings. See
“Performing Basic Operations” on page 57.
•
Advanced Operations — activities associated with the CP 3100’s advanced features.
Advanced operations include using a new physical cartridge, removing a virtual cartridge,
and sending email to primary and secondary recipients. See “Performing Advanced Opera-
tions” on page 70.
•
System Operations — activities associated with retrieving information from the CP 3100. Sys-
tem operations include deleting inactive inventories, viewing the System Log, viewing mes-
sages, and updating firmware. See Chapter 6, “Performing System Operations” on page 74.
