NSR_JUKEBOX(5)NSR_JUKEBOX(5)NAMEnsr_jukebox - NetWorker resource type ``NSR jukebox''
SYNOPSIS
type: NSR jukebox
DESCRIPTION
Each jukebox known to NetWorker is described by a single resource of
type NSR jukebox. A jukebox keeps track of the resources, volumes and
devices that are being managed by an external media management service
and are available to this NetWorker server. An example of an external
media management service is OpenVault. This resource describes the
physical characteristics of a jukebox. See nsr_resource(5). To edit
the NSR jukebox resources for a NetWorker server, type:
nsradmin -c "type:NSR jukebox"
or use NetWorker Management Console. See the nsradmin(8) manual page
for more information on using the NetWorker Administration program.
ATTRIBUTES
The following attributes are defined for resource type NSR jukebox.
The information in parentheses describes how the attribute values are
accessed. Create-only indicates that the value cannot be changed by an
administrator, except when the resource is created. Read-only indi‐
cates that the value cannot be changed by an administrator. Read/write
means the value can be set as well as read at any time. Choice list
means that any number of values can be chosen from the given list.
Yes/no means only a yes or no choice is possible. Single string means
that only a single value is allowed. Number means that only numeric
values are allowed. Static attributes change values rarely, if ever.
Dynamic attributes have values which change rapidly. Hidden means it
is an attribute of interest only to programs or experts, and these
attributes can only be seen when the hidden option is turned on in
nsradmin(8). For example, an attribute marked (read-only, dynamic) has
a value which cannot be changed by the administrator but which may
change each time it is retrieved from the NetWorker server due to
underlying state changes. Several additional attributes (for example,
administrator) are common to all resources, and are described in
nsr_resource(5).
name (create-only, single string)
This attribute specifies the name of this jukebox. The value of
this attribute may follow the "rd=hostname:" syntax of a remote
device, when the jukebox is defined on a storage node. See
nsr_storage_node(5) for additional detail on storage nodes.
Example: name: Huntington;
comment (read/write)
This attribute is provided for the administrator to keep any
explanatory remarks or supplementary information about the juke‐
box.
description (read/write)
This attribute is used to store a brief description about the
jukebox. The description is used to help administrators identify
the jukebox, and it can be in any format.
Example: description: DLT Changer drive in Engineerning Lab;
model (create-only, single string)
This attribute specifies the jukebox model.
Example: model: ADIC-VLS;
physical slots (read-only, list of numbers, hidden)
This attribute specifies the first and last physical slot num‐
bers in the jukebox. The first slot number must be less than or
equal to the last slot number. The numbers must also be speci‐
fied as two separate attribute values.
For Silo Tape Libraries (STL), this attribute is equal to the
number of volumes allocated to this NetWorker server, nsrjb(5)-a or -x. The number of physical slots changes as volumes are
added or removed from the STL.
Example: physical slots: 1, 54;
control port (read/write, single string)
This attribute specifies the path of the control port for the
jukebox robotics. Control commands (load slot 47 into drive b,
for example) are sent to the jukebox via the control port.
For an STL, this attribute specifies the information required to
set up a connection to the STL server. Form and contents of the
attribute depend on the type of the STL, but most often it
merely contains the hostname of STL server.
The value of this attribute may follow the "rd=hostname:" syntax
of a remote device, when the jukebox is defined on a storage
node. See nsr_storage_node(5) for additional detail on storage
nodes.
Example: control port: scsidev@0.6.0;
devices (read/write, list of strings)
This attribute lists the device pathnames of the devices in the
jukebox. Each entry that appears in this attribute must have a
corresponding NSR device resource. Unless any of the drives are
being shared by multiple device resources, there must be the
same number of entries in the devices attribute as there are
physical drives in the jukebox. In addition, they must be
listed in the same order as they are physically installed in the
jukebox. The entries are specified as separate attribute val‐
ues.
Example: devices: /dev/rmt/0mbn, /dev/rmt/1mbn;
This attribute is updated by jbedit when adding or deleting a
shared device or a physical drive.
number devices (read/write, single number, hidden)
The number of configured devices in the jukebox. This value
corresponds to the number of entries in the devices attribute.
Example: number devices: 2;
This attribute is incremented or decremented by jbedit depending
on whether a device is being added to or deleted from the jukebox.
number drives (read/write, single number, hidden)
The number of unique physical drives configured in the jukebox.
When multiple device resources share a physical drive, each
drive is represented by a unique hardware ID attribute, that is
specified in all of the device resources sharing the same drive.
Example: number drives: 2;
This attribute is updated by jbedit when adding or deleting a
unique physical drive but left unmodified when changing a shared
device.
device hardware ids (read-only, hidden)
The hardware ids of the jukebox's devices. For each entry in the
devices attribute of the jukebox resource, there will be a cor‐
responding entry in the device hardware ids attribute. The hard‐
ware id entries of those devices sharing a physical drive will
have the same value.
slot tags (read-only, hidden)
The tags of the jukebox's slots as reported by the nsrlcpd (8)
process. This attribute will have a tag entry for each config‐
ured slot.
drive tags (read-only, hidden)
The tags of the jukebox's drives as reported by the nsrlcpd (8)
process. For each entry in the devices attribute of the jukebox
resource, there will be a corresponding entry in the drive tags
attribute. The drive tags entries of those devices sharing a
physical drive will have the same value.
idle device timeout (read/write, hidden)
This attribute specifies the number of minutes to wait before
unmounting a volume in an idle device. Setting this attribute's
value to zero disables unmounting idle volumes. The function of
this attribute only applies to SmartMedia jukeboxes, or silo and
native jukeboxes with device sharing enabled.
Example: idle device timeout: 10;
SmartMedia update interval (read/write, hidden)
This attribute specifies the number of hours between calls to
update the SmartMedia server's database. The SmartMedia data‐
base contains information copied from the NetWorker media data‐
base. The information includes the pool to which a volume
belongs, whether the volume is full, and so forth. This infor‐
mation is used by the SmartMedia server when selecting a volume
for writing. Since this information may change over time, it is
necessary to periodically make sure that the data replicated in
the SmartMedia server's database is current. This attribute
determines the time period between attempts to update the Smart‐
Media server's database. This attribute only applies to Smart‐
Media jukeboxes.
Example: SmartMedia update interval: 12;
write enabled (read/write, yes/no, hidden)
This attribute indicates whether writing can be done to the
mounted volume. This attribute is only used during a jukebox
``Load'' operation. This attribute passes information between
NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manually by the
administrator.
Example: write enabled: Yes;
bar code reader (read/write, yes/no)
This attribute indicates whether NetWorker should use the bar‐
code label from the media if the jukebox has a barcode label
reader. This should only be enabled if the jukebox has a bar‐
code label reader.
Example: bar code reader: No;
match bar code labels (read/write, yes/no)
This attribute indicates whether NetWorker should use the bar‐
code label instead of a label template when labeling media vol‐
umes. This should only be enabled if the jukebox has a barcode
label reader and the attribute "bar code reader" is enabled.
Example: match bar code labels: No;
verify label on unload (read/write, yes/no)
This attribute indicates whether NetWorker should verify that a
label exists at the beginning of every tape before it is
unloaded. If this attribute is set to Yes and this label does
not exist, all savesets on the volume are marked suspect and the
volume is marked full.
volume expiration (read/write, single string, hidden)
This attribute specifies the expiration time of a volume cur‐
rently being labeled. For jukeboxes interacting with external
media management services, this attribute specifies the minimum
expiration time for the volume to be loaded. This attribute
passes information between NetWorker programs, and should not be
changed manually by the administrator.
available slots (read/write, list of numbers)
This attribute specifies the slots containing volumes available
to automatically satisfy NetWorker requests for writable vol‐
umes. When automatically selecting a writable volume, nsrjb(8)
will only consider volumes from the list of available slots.
The slots are specified as a list of ranges, one range per
attribute value. A range may be a single slot number or a pair
of slot numbers separated by a dash. The first number of a pair
must be less than or equal to the second.
For Silo Tape Libraries, this attribute is automatically updated
when adding or removing volumes, nsrjb(8)-a or -x.
When satisfying requests to mount a particular volume (that is,
by its volume name) or slot, all of the volumes in the slots
listed in physical slots can be used. This allows the jukebox
to be partitioned, with saves restricted to a group of volumes
while all of the volumes contained within the jukebox are acces‐
sible for recovers.
Example: available slots: 1-10;
enabler code (read-only, single string, hidden)
This attribute lists the enabler code for the NSR license
resource (see nsr_license(5)) corresponding to this jukebox
resource. A jukebox cannot be used until a license enabler has
been loaded to control that jukebox.
Example: enabler code: 123456-123456-123456;
enabled slots (read-only, single string, hidden)
The value of this attribute is the number of slots enabled for
this jukebox. This attribute's value is set by the server when
an enabler code is loaded to the jukebox.
Example: enabled slots: 8;
operation (read/write, choice list, hidden)
This attribute shows the operation currently being performed on
the jukebox. This attribute passes information between Net‐
Worker programs, and should not be changed manually by the
administrator.
Example: operation: Load;
command (read-only, single string, hidden)
This attribute shows the command that caused the current opera‐
tion to be performed on the jukebox. If the operation was gener‐
ated via a nsrjb command then this attribute shows the entire
nsrjb command line, otherwise it shows a description of the
operation. The attribute is used to pass information between
NetWorker programs, and to help the administrator track the sta‐
tus of individual operations (see nsr_jbop(5)). This attribute
should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: command: nsrjb -lnv -S 2;
operation message (read-only, single string, hidden)
This attribute displays an error message after a jukebox opera‐
tion fails.
Example: operation message: ;
operation device (read/write, single string, hidden)

the current operation refers. This attribute passes information
between NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manually
by the administrator.
Example: operation drive element address: D:082;
operation slots (read/write, single string, hidden)
This attribute passes the slots on which the current operation
will be performed. This attribute passes information between
NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manually by the
administrator.
Example: operation slots: 1-10;
operation options (read/write, single string, hidden)
This attribute passes the mode of the volume used when the cur‐
rent operation will be performed, nsrjb(5)-o option. This
attribute is used to pass information between NetWorker pro‐
grams, and should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation options: manual;
operation barcodes (read/write, list of strings, hidden)
This attribute passes the volume tags or barcodes on which the
current operation will be performed. This attribute passes
information between NetWorker programs, and should not be
changed manually by the administrator. This attribute is only
used for Silo Tape Libraries and is only defined on platforms
which provide support for Silo Tape Libraries.
Example: operation barcodes: A01B, A0/3-5/B;
operation response (read/write, choice list, hidden)
This attribute designates a default response to questions that
may be asked while performing the operation. This attribute
passes information between NetWorker programs, and should not be
changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation response: Yes;
operation report mode (read/write, choice list, hidden) This attribute
designates the amount of output generated during the execution of the
operation. This attribute passes information between NetWorker pro‐
grams, and should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation report mode: verbose;
operation label state (read/write, choice list, hidden) This attribute
designates whether a volume being labeled is to be recycled or is
expected to be unlabeled. If a volume is to be recycled, it must
already have a NetWorker label. You can recycle a volume while it is
being mounted. This attribute passes information between NetWorker
programs, and should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation label state: recycle;
operation volume capacity (read/write, single string, hidden) This
attribute specifies the capacity of a volume being labeled. This
attribute passes information between NetWorker programs, and should not
be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation volume capacity: 10G;
operation volume type (read/write, choice list, hidden) This attribute
specifies types of volumes that may be considered when allocating a
volume. It is only used when interacting with an external media man‐
agement service. This attribute passes information between NetWorker
programs, and should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation volume type: 8mm, dlt;
operation ineligible (read/write, hidden)
This attribute specifies volumes which are ineligible for the
current operation. Only used when interacting with an external
media management service. This attribute passes information
between NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manually
by the administrator.
Example: operation ineligible: ;
operation task (read/write, choice list, hidden)
This attribute designates a secondary task or operation to be
performed with the current operation. For example, choosing the
mount after label task will cause the volume to be mounted after
it has been labeled. Currently, this attribute is only used
when interacting with an external media management service.
This attribute passes information between NetWorker programs,
and should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation task: mount after label;
operation instance (read/write, single string, hidden)
This attribute designates an instance number to be associated
with the operation. The instance must be unique for all current
operations.
operation hostname (read/write, single string, hidden)
This attribute designates the name of the machine on which the
operation is to be executed. This attribute is only used for
those jukeboxes which support devices attached to multiple
hosts. The host machine may be inferred from other attributes
for the operation, such as operation device. If a device is
specified, the operation will be executed on the host for the
device. Otherwise the host will be inferred from the name of the
jukebox, unless a value is specified for this attribute. This
attribute passes information between NetWorker programs, and
should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation hostname: host1;
operation dev hostname (read/write, single string,
hidden)
This attribute designates the name of the machine from which a
device is to be selected for the operation. It applies to
shared jukeboxes, which can have drives attached to multiple
hosts. This attribute passes information between NetWorker pro‐
grams, and should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation dev hostname: host1;
operation template (read/write, single string, hidden)
This attribute shows the template that the label operation will
use. The verify operation sets this to the volume name found on
a piece of media. This attribute passes information between
NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manually by the
administrator.
Example: operation template: Default;
operation volume pool (read/write, choice list, hidden) This attribute
specifies the default volume pool to use when labeling. This attribute
passes information between NetWorker programs, and should not be
changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation volume pool: NonFull;
operation source pool (read/write, choice list, hidden) This attribute
specifies the pool from which a volume may be selected when recycling a
volume. This attribute is only supported on jukeboxes for volumes being
managed by an external media management package. This attribute passes
information between NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manu‐
ally by the administrator.
Example: operation source pool: Default;
operation uses left (read/write, single string, hidden) This attribute
sets the number of times a cleaning cartridge may be used. This
attribute passes information between NetWorker programs, and should not
be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: operation uses left: 12;
volumes (read/write, list of strings, hidden)
This attribute contains a list of resident volume names. The
order corresponds to the slot number. This attribute passes
information between NetWorker programs, and should not be
changed manually by the administrator.
Example: volumes: mars.001, mars.002, mars.003, mars.004;
volume ids (read/write, list of strings, hidden)
Every volume labeled by NetWorker is assigned a volume identi‐
fier, often referred to as a volid. This attribute contains a
list of volume identifiers for the resident volumes. The volume
identifiers stored could be the new long volume IDs or the older
and shorter volume IDs. The type of volume identifiers stored
depends on whether the storage node on which the device belong‐
ing to the jukebox resides on, supports the new long volume id
or not. The order corresponds to the slot number.
This attribute passes information between NetWorker programs,
and should not be changed manually by the administrator.
Example: volumes: 24198, 24199, 24200, 24197;
volume cartridge ids (read/write, list of strings, hidden) Some juke‐
boxes track volumes that are managed by external media management ser‐
vices. There may be multiple volumes on the same media, for example, a
volume on each side of an optical disk. This attribute is used to track
the identifier for each cartridge on which a volume resides. The order
corresponds to the slot number. This attribute passes information
between NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manually by the
administrator.
loaded volumes (read/write, list of strings, hidden)
This attribute contains the names of the volumes currently
loaded on the jukebox devices. The order is with respect to the
devices attribute. This attribute passes information between
NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manually by the
administrator.
This attribute is updated by jbedit when adding or deleting a
shared device or a physical drive.
Example: loaded volumes: mars.089, mars.003;
Using the names specified in the previous devices attribute,
mars.089 is loaded in `/dev/rmt/0mbn' and mars.003 is loaded in
`/dev/rmt/1mbn'.
loaded bar codes (read/write, list of strings, hidden)
This attribute contains the barcodes of the loaded volumes, if
the use of barcodes is enabled for the jukebox. The order is
with respect to the devices attribute. This attribute passes
information between NetWorker programs, and should not be
changed manually by the administrator.
This attribute is modified by jbedit when a device is added to
or removed from the jukebox resource.
Example: loaded barcodes: 12345, 67890;
Using the names specified in the previous devices attribute, the
volume with barcode 12345 is loaded in `/dev/rmt/0mbn' and the
volume with barcode 67890 is loaded in `/dev/rmt/1mbn'.
loaded slots (read/write, list of numbers, hidden)
This attribute contains the slot numbers of the loaded volumes.
The order is with respect to the devices attribute. This
attribute passes information between NetWorker programs, and
should not be changed manually by the administrator.
This attribute is modified by jbedit when a device is added to
or removed from the jukebox resource.
Example: loaded slots: 48, 3;
Using the names specified in the previous devices attribute, the
volume in slot 48 is loaded in `/dev/rmt/0mbn' and the volume in
slot 3 is loaded in `/dev/rmt/1mbn'.
event tag (read/write, single number, hidden)
This attribute contains the tag (unique identifier) of the last
notification event sent to the nsrd(8) daemon. The tag is used
by nsrjb(8) to clear the previous event. This attribute passes
information between NetWorker programs, and should not be
changed manually by the administrator.
Example: event tag: 6319962287;
event message (read/write, single string, hidden)
This attribute contains the text of the last notification event
sent to the nsrd(8) daemon. The nsrjb(8) command will send a
notification event to nsrd when operator intervention is needed
before nsrjb can proceed. This attribute passes information
between NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manually
by the administrator.
Example: event message: could not unload device /dev/rmt/1mbn
into slot 4;
messages (read/write, list of strings, hidden)
This attribute contains a log of messages reflecting previous
operations nsrjb(8) has done. Generally, an entry is made each
time nsrjb is invoked and for each mechanical operation. Each
entry is timestamped. This attribute is used to pass informa‐
tion between NetWorker programs, and should not be changed manu‐
ally by the administrator.
Example: messages: 04/01/91 01:15:08 loaded slot 4 into drive a;
minimum space (read/write, single string, hidden)
This attribute contains the low water mark for remaining space.
When the remaining space on the volumes contained in the
available slots is less than the minimum space, irrespec‐
tive of whether there is only one volume or more in the Juke‐
box, an alert notification is sent that states that the vol‐
umes in the named jukebox has passed the low water mark, the
first time its noticed. After this, during subsequent checks,
if the situation has not changed, that is, remaining space is
still less than or equal to the limit specified in "minimum
space", a notification is sent to nsrd about the available
space on the volume(s). If there is just one volume, then, even
if the limit has not been reached, the notification about
the available space on the volume, is sent. This hidden
attribute can be modified by a user. This hidden attribute
can be modified by a user.
The minimum space may be specified as a number of gigabytes or
megabytes. Either `G' or `g' may be used for gigabytes, `M' or
`m' for megabytes.
Example: minimum space: 7g;
jukebox options (read-only, list of strings, hidden)
This attribute contains a list of the options for this jukebox.
This option is automatically set after jukebox creation.
Example: jukebox options: two_sided;
auto clean (read/write, yes/no)
This attribute specifies whether automatic cleaning of devices
in the the jukebox is enabled.
Example: auto clean: Yes;
cleaning slots (read/write, list of numbers)
This attribute designates a range of slots in the jukebox that
has been set aside for cleaning cartridges. A range may be a
single slot number or a pair of slot numbers separated by a
dash. If a pair of slot numbers is given, the first number of
the pair must be less than or equal to the second. Only one
range of slots may be set aside for cleaning cartridges. If
auto clean is set to no, the value of cleaning slots is ignored
and these slots may contain regular volumes. When auto clean is
set to yes, the range of slots specified for this attribute are
assumed to contain cleaning cartridges, and the range of slots
specified by available slots and this attribute must not over‐
lap.
For Silo Tape Libraries this attribute should not be changed
directly. This attribute is automatically updated, when adding
(nsrjb -U) or removing (nsrjb -x) cleaning cartridges.
Example: cleaning slots: 9-10;
default cleanings (read/write, single number)
This attribute designates the number of uses assigned to a new
cleaning cartridge during an inventory of a jukebox by nsrjb(8).
A cleaning cartridge is considered to be new when a slot set
aside for cleaning cartridges that was empty is discovered to be
full during an inventory of a jukebox.
Example: default cleanings: 12;
auto media management (read-write)
This attribute indicates whether automated media management for
the jukebox is enabled. The value can be yes or no. If the
value is set to yes, then unlabeled volumes in the jukebox may
be automatically labeled by NetWorker. NetWorker verifies that
the volume is unlabeled before labeling the volume. A volume is
considered to be unlabeled if the volume does not contain a
label that may be read by the device in the jukebox into which
the volume is loaded. Note that if the volume contains a label,
but the label is written at a density that cannot be read by the
device the volume is considered to be unlabeled. If the volume
contains data written by an application other than NetWorker, it
most likely does not have a label recognizable by NetWorker and
the volume is considered to be unlabeled. With this attribute
enabled, care should be taken when loading any volume considered
to be unlabeled into the jukebox. The volume may be re-labeled
and the data previously on the volume over-written by NetWorker.
For devices in a jukebox the value of their auto media manage‐
ment attribute is always no.
Example: auto media management: yes;
STL device names (read/write, list of strings)
This attribute lists the corresponding Silo device names of the
devices listed in the devices attribute. If several device
resources are sharing the same physical Silo drive, as indicated
by a common hardware ID value, this attribute will only have an
entry for each of the physical drives. This attribute is only
used for Silo Tape Libraries and is only defined on platforms
which provide support for Silo Tape Libraries.
STL interface lib (read/write, single string)
The pathname of the dynamically linked interface library. This
attribute is only used for Silo Tape Libraries and is only
defined on platforms which provide support for Silo Tape
Libraries.
Example: STL interface lib: /usr/lib/libstl.so.1;
STL device sharing (read/write, single string)
This attribute specifies how to handle device sharing. Device
sharing means automatic, load dependent, device switching of
devices in a Silo Tape Library between different hosts connected
to the library. This feature can only be used if it is sup‐
ported by the STL interface lib. Possible values for this
attribute are an empty string (device sharing disabled) or
"perm-max", where perm and max are numbers with perm < max. The
perm value is the number of devices that can be reserved perma‐
nently (do not require releasing). The max value is the maximum
number of devices that can be reserved. This attribute is only
used for Silo Tape Libraries and is only defined on platforms
which provide support for Silo Tape Libraries.
Example: STL device sharing: 2-4;
STL barcodes (read/write, list of strings, hidden)
The barcodes of the volumes in the library, which are available
for NetWorker. This attribute maintains the volume names used
by the Silo Tape Libraries for the corresponding volumes in the
volumes attribute. This attribute is only used for Silo Tape
Libraries and OpenVault virtual jukeboxes. The attribute is only
defined on platforms which provide support for Silo Tape
Libraries or OpenVault.
STL device reservation (read/write, list of strings,
hidden)
This list contains the reservation state of shared devices in a
tape library. The possible states are "Yes" (device is
reserved), "No" (device is not reserved) and "Error" (an error
occurred during release of this device). The order of the
reservation state matches the `devices' attribute. This
attribute is only used for Silo Tape Libraries with device shar‐
ing enabled and is only defined on platforms which provide sup‐
port for Silo Tape Libraries.
application name (read/write, encrypted, hidden)
This attribute is only used for OpenVault jukeboxes. OpenVault
requires any application to identify itself when submitting a
request. This is the name used by this server to identify
itself to OpenVault when submitting a request to access
resources listed in this jukebox.
application key (read/write, encrypted, hidden)
This attribute is only used for OpenVault jukeboxes. OpenVault
requires any application to identify itself when submitting a
request. This is the key used by this server to identify itself
to OpenVault when submitting a request to access resources
listed in this jukebox.
read hostname (read/write, single string)
The hostname that is used in selecting a storage node for
recover and read-side clone requests. For recover requests, if
the required volume is not mounted, and the client's "storage
nodes" attribute does not match one of the owning hosts in the
jukebox, then this attribute is used. For clone requests, if
the required volume is not mounted, then this attribute is used.
NDMP jukebox (read-only, yes/no)
This attribute specifies that the jukebox robotics is controlled
by the NDMP Tape Server host.
NDMP type (read-only, Choice list, hidden)
This attribute specifies the type of control that the NDMP juke‐
box provides. Other than Celestra 1.6 on Solaris, all other
jukeboxes that are controlled by NDMP Tape Server will have the
value "Logical Handle Device".
NDMP hostname (read-only, single string)
This attribute specifies the NDMP Tape Server hostname that is
controlling the jukebox robotics.
remote user (read/write, single string, hidden)
This field is no longer used. The NDMP user name on the NDMP
Tape Server host is used from NSR storage node (5) resource.
password (read/write, single string, hidden)
This field is no longer used. The password for the NDMP user on
the NDMP Tape Server host is used from NSR storage node (5)
resource.
NDMP jukebox handle (read-only, single string)
This attribute specifies the jukebox handle on the NDMP Tape
Server host to control the jukebox robotics.
NDMP bus number (read-only, number, hidden)
This attribute specifies the BUS number of the Jukebox on the
NDMP Tape Server host. This field maintained for backward compi‐
tiability.
autodetect id (read/write, hidden)
This attribute is for identifying autodetected devices. It is
used by NetWorker programs only, and should not be changed manu‐
ally by the administrator.
server network interface (read/write, hidden)

affect.
debug trace level(read/write, single number, hidden)
The level of debug messages generated & displayed during a juke‐
box operation may be set on a per jukebox basis. The value
default value is 0, which means no debug information collected
or displayed. Higher values represent increasingly larger
amounts of debug information being captured.
operation timeout(read/write, single number, hidden)
The time, in seconds, that a jukebox operation may sit idle
before it is automatically cancelled. The default is 1800 sec‐
onds (30 minutes).
operation lifespan(read/write, single number, hidden)
The time, in seconds, that the jukebox operation resource (for a
completed jukebox operation) is kept in nsrd before automati‐
cally being deleted. The default value is 1800 seconds (30 min‐
utes)
ready (read/write, yes/no, hidden)
Indicates whether the jukebox is ready to accept operations to
be executed. The value is automatically set to "No" when Net‐
worker is started, and will be changed to "Yes" once Networker
determines that the jukebox has finished initializing, and is
ready to begin work. Any reset of the jukebox will also change
the ready attribute back to "No" until the rest has completed.
unconfigured devices (read only, hidden)
Indicates the list of device names belongs to this jukebox,
which are discovered by auto-detect during last scan however not
yet configured in the library.
library drive base address (read only, hidden)
Indicates the base element address of the drives in the jukebox.
The device detection program, dvdetect, updates the resource.
existing drive ids (read only, hidden)
Inidcates the serial numbers information of the currently exist‐
ing drives in the jukebox. The device detection program, dvde‐
tect, updates the resource.
existing drive addresses (read only, hidden)
Indicates the element addresses of the currently existing drives
in the jukebox. The device detection program, dvdetect, updates
the resource.
unconfigured drive ids (read only, hidden)
Indicates the serial numbers information of the unconfigured
drives (detected in last scan however not yet configured) in the
jukebox. The device detection program, dvdetect, updates the
resource.
unconfigured drive addresses(read only, hidden)
Indicates the element addresses of the unconfigured drives
(detected in last scan however not yet configured) in the juke‐
box. The device detection program, dvdetect, updates the
resource.
EXAMPLE
A resource defining a jukebox named Huntington is shown. The model
attribute specifies a `Exabyte 210' jukebox. The control port
attribute specifies the bus, target, and LUN ID for the robotics device
`scsidev@0.6.0'. The device attribute lists the pathnames of the two
tape devices in the jukebox, `/dev/rmt/0mbn' and `/dev/rmt/1mbn'.
Since the jukebox has a bar code reader, the two bar code yes/no
attributes are both set to `Yes'. The available slots attribute lists
the slots to consider when automatically selecting a volume to load for
writing. The available slots are 2 through 11. The hidden attributes
are displayed. auto clean is yes so automatic cleaning of devices is
enabled for this jukebox. cleaning slots is set to slot 1. This slot
is reserved for a cleaning cartridge.
