CAUTION:
Since loop mode will endlessly cycle through the tapes, it is possible to overwrite old data.
Make sure that there are enough tapes in the Library or that the tapes are regularly rotated
in and out to ensure that data you want to save is not overwritten.
• Autoload — the device will automatically load the tape from the lowest numbered full slot on
power up.
• WWide Node Name — a world wide unique identifier that the Library reports over SCSI and
may be used by operating systems or software applications to identify and track the Library.
Viewing static drive information
The Identity: Drive page (SCSI) , Identity: Drive page (Fibre Channel) , and Identity: Drive page (SAS)
provide detailed information about the tape drives. You will only see the fields that apply to the
interface type of the drives installed in this Library.
