Abstract
Example apparatus, methods, and other embodiments concern a tape library controller (TLC) configured to examine import and export commands to provide more intelligent active vault support. One example method may include receiving a command in a TLC associated with a tape library that is configured with an active archive and an active vault. The example method may include determining that the command can be satisfied by one of, an operation involving the active vault, and an operation involving an external vault. The example method may then control the TLC to provide a request that seeks the vault destination to be used to satisfy the command. The example method may also include receiving an identifier of the vault destination in the TLC and controlling the tape library to move a tape to or from the active vault or the external vault based on the vault destination identifier.
