--output=raw
Inventorying tapes (p. 60)
Inventorying the tapes loaded into two tape devices. Since the --mode (p. 114) parameter is not

Y2,YYYYYYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYYYYYYYYY3
Combination of fast and full inventorying.
Full inventorying of an entire tape device may take a long time. If you need to inventory only a
few tapes, combine fast and full inventorying.
1. Perform fast inventorying of the tape device:
acrocmd inventory tape --libraries=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
2. List tape slots of the tape device. Specify the --output=raw parameter to see complete
GUIDs of tape slots.
acrocmd list tape_slots --filter_library=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
--output=raw
3. In the command output, find the tapes you want to inventory and note which slots they
occupy.
4. Perform full inventorying of these slots:
acrocmd inventory tape --mode=full
--libraries=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
--slots=YYYYYYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYYYYYYYYY1,YYYYYYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYYYY
