Recording Device Information

The utilities insert rows into the RCMedia table for each removable device used in an archive or recovery activity. A row contains these attributes:

  • The event number assigned to the activity.
  • The six-character volume serial assigned to the removable device.
  • A sequence number that assigns the device its position within the set.
  • A duplicate-file flag to indicate the device belongs to a duplicate file created by an archive request. Y indicates a duplicate; N indicates the primary file.
