Viewing disk volume details

    A list of disk volumes for the server appears in the right pane. The following table lists the information that appears for each volume.

    Table 1. Disk volumes window
    Category Description
    Volume Name Name of the volume, which is the same as the name that appears on the volume label in the NetWorker Administration interface.

    At the end of the name, one of the following designations might
    appear:

    • (A) indicates an archive volume.
    • (R) indicates a read-only volume.
    Media Type The type of media for the volume.
    Used The amount of space currently in use on the volume, which is shown in KB, MB, or GB, as appropriate.

    The value of full indicates that there
    is no more space on the volume or an error has occurred.

    Mode Whether the volume is appendable, read-only, or recyclable:
    • Appendable volumes contain empty space. Data that meets the acceptance criteria for the pool to which this volume belongs can be appended.
    • Read-only volumes contain read-only save sets. No new data can be written to the volume. However, the save sets are still subject to retention settings, and the volume is recycled when the retention periods for all the save sets on the volume expire.

      When the mode is read-only, the Mode field
      appears blank. An (R) appears next to the
      volume name.

    • Recyclable volumes contain save sets that have all exceeded their retention periods.
    Expiration The expiration date for the volume. If the recycle policy is set to manual instead of automatic, then manual appears in this column.

    To change the expiration date for the volume, use the
    nsrmm command from the command prompt, or
    right-click the volume, select Recycle, and then select
    Manual on the Recycle dialog box.

    Pool Name of the pool to which the volume belongs.
    Location An administrator-defined description of the physical location of a volume.
