response_iterator = paginator.paginate(
    GatewayARN='string',
    TapeARNs=[
        'string',
    ],
    PaginationConfig={
        'MaxItems': 123,
        'PageSize': 123,
        'StartingToken': 'string'
    }
)

Parameters:

• GatewayARN (string) –

  [REQUIRED]

  The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the gateway. Use the ListGateways operation to return a list of gateways for your account and Amazon Web Services Region.

• TapeARNs (list) –

  Specifies one or more unique Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) that represent the virtual tapes you want to describe. If this parameter is not specified, Tape gateway returns a description of all virtual tapes associated with the specified gateway.

  • (string) –

• PaginationConfig (dict) –

  A dictionary that provides parameters to control pagination.

  • MaxItems (integer) –

    The total number of items to return. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified in max-items then a NextToken will be provided in the output that you can use to resume pagination.

  • PageSize (integer) –

    The size of each page.

  • StartingToken (string) –

    A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previous response.

Response Structure

• (dict) –

  DescribeTapesOutput

  • Tapes (list) –

    An array of virtual tape descriptions.

    • (dict) –

      Describes a virtual tape object.

      • TapeARN (string) –

        The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the virtual tape.

      • TapeBarcode (string) –

        The barcode that identifies a specific virtual tape.

      • TapeCreatedDate (datetime) –

        The date the virtual tape was created.

      • TapeSizeInBytes (integer) –

        The size, in bytes, of the virtual tape capacity.

      • TapeStatus (string) –

        The current state of the virtual tape.

      • VTLDevice (string) –

        The virtual tape library (VTL) device that the virtual tape is associated with.

      • Progress (float) –

        For archiving virtual tapes, indicates how much data remains to be uploaded before archiving is complete.

        Range: 0 (not started) to 100 (complete).

      • TapeUsedInBytes (integer) –

        The size, in bytes, of data stored on the virtual tape.

      • Worm (boolean) –

        If the tape is archived as write-once-read-many (WORM), this value is true.

      • RetentionStartDate (datetime) –

        The date that the tape is first archived with tape retention lock enabled.

      • PoolEntryDate (datetime) –

        The date that the tape enters a custom tape pool.
