Permanent Retention

Use the Permanent Retention option to permanently vault slots and the tape volumes they contain. If you use this option, when a tape volume is vaulted, it does not return to Tape Service. The only way to return it is to change the vault status back to the default.

To permanently check tape volumes out of Tape Service, select the Permanent Retention option on the Create Rotation dialog.
