3. Select Submit . The Result screen indicates that the operation was successful. The cartridge is now
in the UpToDate status.
Viewing Cartridges in Automigration Source Libraries
When a tape is still present in the destination library, you can view the matching automigration virtual
cartridge in the associated source virtual library. To view cartridges in the source libraries:
1. On the Automigration/Replication tab, select Source Cartridges from the navigation pane.
2. The right hand pane then shows all the automigration virtual cartridges (alphabetically by bar
code) in the source libraries and information including the cartridge state, last written date,
destination library, and destination slot.
Viewing Automigration Cartridges in the Firesafe
When a cartridge is ejected from the destination library, its matching virtual cartridge is automatically
ejected out of the virtual library and moved into the device's firesafe. The firesafe acts as a virtual
offline location for the automigration virtual cartridges. Once they are in the firesafe, the automigration
virtual cartridges are retained according to their automigration policies, which define how many days
the virtual cartridges remain in the firesafe before being automatically deleted.
NOTE:
From the Automigration/Replication tab of Command View VLS, the firesafe in the window shows
items placed in the firesafe by automigration only; items placed in the firesafe from different functions
of the VLS are not shown here.
To view cartridges in the firesafe, from the Automigration/Replication tab, select Firesafe from the
navigation pane. For mirror copies, the firesafe date is the date of the most recent copy.
When the physical tape is moved back into the physical library, the corresponding virtual tape is
immediately moved from the firesafe back to the appropriate location (based on the location of the
physical tape). The physical tape is not read upon load and is not synchronized to the virtual tape.
Therefore, if you have modified the physical tape while it was outside of the library, then it is now
out-of-sync with the virtual tape in the firesafe. If you want to keep these modifications to the physical
tape, you will need to ensure that the data is copied to the virtual tape. Either manually delete the
virtual tape from the firesafe or perform a
Load Media for Restore . This forces the system to read the
physical tape upon load and causes automigration to create a new virtual copy. See
“
Restoring from a SAN Physical Cartridge ” on page 60.
Smart Copy Pool Operations
Smart copy allows the backup application to trigger copies from virtual cartridges to destination
cartridges, and the VLS then performs that copy inside the device. The backup application can only
use this feature if it supports the HP smart copy mechanism (via SMI-S v1.3 or later copy services).
Editing SMI-S Settings
SMI-S is the communications mechanism between the backup application and smart copy. If your
backup application supports smart copy, you will need to link your backup application to the device
SMI-S interface. This may require you to modify the device SMI-S security. See
“
SMI-S Support ” on page 157 for SMI-S information.
