OSS Media

The DataWare/ROSs/OSS Storage System (OSS) utilizes 3490 emulation. Its resources are 3490 devices which are referred to by device number. These devices should be explicitly defined to the IOA Archive server (by device number) and dedicated to the server.

Devices that temporarily need to be used by other jobs or by started tasks should be disconnected from the IOA Archive server by an operator command.

The IOA Archive server uses a queuing mechanism to minimize platter switching.
