Media Unload
Use the Media Unload page to perform a bulk unload of virtual tape cartridges from drives or I/E slots.
Note: If you do not create and associate a host access group with a partition, the virtual devices are not
visible from the host, and drives cannot be destinations for move operations (see Remote Host Access
on the next page).
Caution: If you unload a virtual tape cartridge from a drive while a backup to that drive is in progress,
the backup job will fail.
To access the Media Unload page, on the Media page, click the Unload tab (see Figure 141 below).
Figure 141: Media Unload Page
