Library Model
Select the library model emulated by the partition. The library model determines
the inquiry string returned to the host by the DXi4700. (The library model does
not restrict the number of slots or drives in a partition because library emulation
is not a representation of a physical library.)
The following library models are available:
Models
l
Quantum DXi7500
l
ADIC Pathlight VX
l
Quantum Scalar i40/i80 or Quantum Scalar i6000
l
Quantum DXi6700, Quantum DXi6900, Quantum DXi6800, Quantum
DXi4700, Quantum DXi4601, Quantum, Quantum DXi4500, or Quantum

l
Quantum DX3000 or Quantum DX5000
l
Quantum PX500 or Quantum PX720
l
ATL M2500, ATL P1000, or ATL P7000
If you select a library such as the ATL P1000 or ATL P7000, the DXi4700
appears as the selected library to the host and backup application. If you select
DXi4700, the host and backup application recognize the device as a DXi4700.
Note:
Quantum recommends that you set the library model to DXi4700 for
best compatibility. If your backup application does not support the
DXi4700 inquiry string, select a different library model. Check your
software compatibility guide to verify what library models are supported.
Number of Storage
Slots
Enter the number of storage slots in the partition (up to 61,000).
Note:
One I/E slot is created for each storage slot up to a maximum of
240 I/E slots.
