Whether or not Move-Mount action processing is permitted is
specified at the archive level. The ACTION_MODE and
MOVEWAIT_OPTION attributes control whether or not
Move-Mount processing is allowed for a specific archive.
These attributes are discussed under the
VS_Archive_SetFields and
VS_Archive_GetFields functions.
The VSID_DRIVE_ID_LIST and
VSID_MODPOOL_OPTION_LIST parameters require that two
arguments be passed instead of one.
• The first argument passed is the number of drives to add to
or delete from the specified drive pool.
• The second argument is the list of identifier of the drives to
add or delete from the specified drive pool.
The total length of time the API software waits for a command
status in synchronous mode from VolServ is
(VSID_RETRY_LIMIT plus 1) multiplied by
VSID_TIMEOUT_VALUE.
If the VSID_ENTERPRISE_ID parameter is set to any value
other than zero, the final status for this request is returned to the
enterprise registered with VolServ.
When the API software is operating in asynchronous mode,
client software must call VS_Select to receive final status on
a Modify Pool request submitted through the API interface to
the VolServ system.
Two levels of default parameter settings are used in the API
software—global defaults and command-specific defaults.
• Global defaults for all commands are initialized at startup
and can be set or retrieved using
VS_Global_SetFields
and
VS_Global_GetFields function calls.
