aclGetParam ACL Application Programmer’s Guide

The ACL detects the presence of a tape cartridge when it is inserted

into an IMEX bin. When the Auto Import conﬁguration parameter is

set to on, the ACL automatically transfers the tape cartridge to the

next available Storage Element, starting from address 1000.

When the Auto Import conﬁguration parameter is set to off, this

functionality is suppressed and the initiator must use the

aclMoveCartridge() or aclMoveVolume() function to transfer the

tape cartridge to a storage bin (or tape drive).

RETURN VALUES

The return value is DST_SUCCESS (0) or DST_FAILURE (-1). See “Return Values” on page
