Check the number of free volumes in the library by locating the Free column for the library of interest in the PetaServe Library Manager window. � If the number of free volumes equals or exceeds the number of additional volumes that you want to allocate for backup at this time�based upon the mssadm setlib command parameter that you issued in the previous step�stop here. Those free volumes are automatically allocated for backup. � If the number of free volumes is less than the number of volumes that you want to allocate for backup at this time� based upon the mssadm setlib command parameter that you issued in the previous step�insert additional volumes such that the number of free volumes in the library and the number that you insert equals the number of volumes that you want to allocate.
