Description
Deletions are a rare event in tape archive storage operations. When they happen, they are often the result of a user mistake or a bug. As deletion is asynchronous on the tape side, nothing is physically deleted until the tape is reclaimed. CTA keeps a copy of all the deleted file metadata so that files deleted unintentionally can be restored. This hands-on session will allow participants to understand what happens to deleted tape files in the CTA tape lifecycle and how to use the CTA restore tools.
