Volume List at the bottom of the window.
Any of the three entry methods may be repeated multiple times on the same window to add additional
volumes to the list. All three entry methods or any combination of them may be used in succession on the
same window.
To add a single volume name to the Volume List, set the Fill Count and the Fill Increment each to 1
and type the volume name into the Volume Label field. The volume name will be added to the Volume
List.
To automatically generate a list of volume names in the Volume List, set the Fill Count to the desired
number of volumes. Set the Fill Increment to the number by which each automatically generated label
should differ from the previous one. Then type the starting volume name into the Volume Label field.
The specified number of volume names will be added to the Volume List, each one larger than the
previous entry by the specified Fill Increment.
Example:
Fill Count = 6
Fill Increment = 10
Volume Label = "AA0070"
Labels automatically inserted into Volume List:
"AA0070"
"AA0080"
"AA0090"
"AA0100"
"AA0110"
"AA0120"
When an addition produces overflow in a column, numerical columns are carried over properly to
alphabetic columns and vice versa.
Example:
Fill Count = 6
Fill Increment = 2000
Volume Label= "AA7329"
Labels automatically inserted into Volume List:
"AA7329"
"AA9329"
"AB1329"
“AB3329”
“AB5329”
“AB7329”
The filling will not occur and an error will be displayed if the specified values would generate an invalid
volume label (e.g., one greater than zzz999).
To specify a list of volumes from a file, create a file containing the name of each volume to be deleted on
a separate line. Volume names must be six alphanumeric characters. No other characters are allowed on
the line. The file must be accessible from the host on which the hpssgui is executing. Enter the name of
