  NAME

    jbimplock - Imports and locks a volume into a jukebox drive

  SYNOPSIS

    /usr/bin/jbimplock volume1 volume2 jukebox_id

  DESCRIPTION

    The jbimplock imports and locks a volume with a user defined soft label
    into a jukebox drive.  You can use the jukebox drive to perform raw data
    operations on volumes with no labels or no standard file format.  In a
    standard jukebox environment, volumes without labels cannot be imported
    into a jukebox.  The jbimplock command overcomes this by allowing user
    defined "soft" labels.  These "soft" labels are treated by the software as
    normal labels.

    The volume1 and volume2 parameters are the user-defined volume names for
    side 1 and side 2 of a cartridge which is to be imported and mounted in to
    a jukebox drive.  The jukebox_id parameter identifies the jukebox to which
    a cartridge is imported.  The jbimplock command returns with the device ID
    of the drive into which the cartridge has been mounted.

    The cartridge imported into the jukebox by this method cannot occupy a
    storage slot.  The only other command valid for the cartridge is
    jbexpunlock, which unlocks and exports the cartridge out of the jukebox.

  EXAMPLES

    To import and lock vol_a and vol_b into the drive of the JB01 jukebox, key
    in the following command:

    jbimplock vol_a vol_b JB01


  NOTES

    The jbimplock command requires superuser privileges.

  CAUTIONS

    Media imported into the jukebox with jbimplock can accept only one other
    jukebox command: jbexpunlock.  Do not try to allocate a storage slot for
    this media, since it would fail when the jukebox software tries to read
    its label.

  DIAGNOSTICS

    Appropriate error messages are issued if jbimplock completes
    unsuccessfully.  The following includes the most common error message:



  2/94 - Intergraph Corporation                                              1






  jbimplock(8)                        CLIX                        jbimplock(8)



    JBM and/or jbinterface is not running
           The application program cannot start because it finds that JBM is
           not running.

  EXIT VALUES

    The jbimplock command exits with a value of 0 if successful.  If
    unsuccessful, it exits with a nonzero value.
