On the /etc/xrd.cf.mgm configuration file, the following parameters must be set:
mgmofs.tapeenabled true
taperestapi.sitename cern-cta-xxxx
The taperestapi.sitename parameter corresponds to the targeted metadata identifier that will be used by the user to pass metadata to CTA for each file staged.
Activation:
eos space config default taperestapi.status=on
success: Tape REST API enabled
Deactivation:
eos space config default taperestapi.status=off
success: Tape REST API disabled
Warning: the tape REST API can only be enabled/disabled on the default space. An error message will be displayed in the case one tries to enable it on a different space:
eos space config OtherSpace taperestapi.status=on

By default, the STAGE resource of the tape REST API is not activated. If one deactivates the tape REST API and activates it again, the STAGE resource will be deactivated by default.
Activation:
eos space config default taperestapi.stage=on
success: Tape REST API STAGE resource enabled
