man cartready (Administration système) - tell the tape server about cartridge changes

NAME

cartready - tell the tape server about cartridge changes

SYNOPSIS

cartready (No arguments evaluated)

DESCRIPTION

If you have no cartridge handling system, a human must put the next cartridge into the drive, if necessary. Then the backup- server must get a hint, when the maintainer has done it. This is achieved entering this command on the backup server host, after the new cartridge is inserted. Nonetheless the server process waits a certain timespan, until it accesses the drive the next time (See: "Cart-Insert-Gracetime" in /usr/server/lib/server.conf).

FILES

/usr/server/lib/server.conf
Server configuration file
/var/log/afbackup
The directory for logging the server actions
/var/lib/afbackup
Some internal state information of the server.
