Figure 84 Mailslot-capable magazine and slot, each marked with a white dot
.
The Library will eject the mailslot in the lower left magazine when instructed to open mailslots. After
the mailslot is closed, the Library will inventory the tapes in the mailslot, but not the rest of the tapes
in the magazine, which allows the Library to resume operations sooner.
On the MSL8096, the upper-right magazine can be configured as a 12–slot mailslot. All of the
right-side magazines are the same so it does not have a special marking. When instructed to open
both mailslots, the Library first ejects the lower-left mailslot and then unlocks the upper-right mailslot
a few seconds later. The Library does not
eject the upper-right mailslot. The upper-right mailslot remains
unlocked until 30 seconds after the lower-left mailslot is replaced. After the upper-right mailslot is
replaced, the Library inventories all of the tapes in the magazine. The OCP displays a series of
informative messages so you can see what the Library is doing.
NOTE:
If you exchange the magazine in the lower-left position with one that has different mailslot capabilities,
the Library displays a warning that the mailslot type is incompatible with the configuration.
To access the mailslots:
1. Highlight Operations -> Open Mailslots and press OK to select it.
