Taperalgo

The algorithm used to choose which dump image to send from the holding disk to the taper. Note that the taper can only send completed dumps from the holding disk to tape. So as each dump is sent to tape, the taper must select a new dump from completed dumps, not from all the remaining dumps.

Possible values:

first

First in - first out. (default)

firstfit

The first dump image that will fit on the current tape.

largest

The largest dump image.

largestfit

The largest dump image that will fit on the current tape.

smallest

The smallest dump image.

last

Last in - first out.
