Selecting Tapes for MPC Jobs

MPC jobs can only be submitted by authorized clients such as CA VM:Archiver. The client supplies the name of a resource pool to use for each output tape copy in each output group in the MPC job. CA VM:Backup allocates tapes using the same tape allocation process it follows for CA VM:Backup backup jobs. If no more tapes are available in a specified resource pool, CA VM:Backup looks in the resource pool's definition for the action to take when the resource pool is empty and performs that action.
