• Creates an entry in the AMASS database and
populates the entry with a unique volume
number (assigned by AMASS), a preprinted
barcode, and a volume group assignment
• Marks the volumes Online

Reference chapter in Managing the AMASS File

Step 2. Place media into the mailbox with the barcode
facing the picker and close the sliding door.
The picker scans the volumes in the mailboxes and
moves the volumes to their home storage slots. Make
sure this completes before going to the next step.
Unload Tape
Outlet media only when media does not reside in the mailbox.
Step 1. Use the bulkoutlet command to unload and mark
the volume Offline in the AMASS database.
NOTE: If you specify more volumes with the
bulkoutlet command than the
number of available mailslots, AMASS
waits until all mailslots are cleared
before continuing.
Step 2. Remove the media after the library has moved
each volume from its home storage slot to the
mailbox.
