Element Address
— element address of the slot.

Encryption
— the encryption state of the media in the slot. In order for
the library to know the encryption state, the tape must have been
placed into an encryption-capable tape drive in the library. Currently,
only IBM LTO-4 Fibre Channel and SAS tape drives are encryption
capable. The encryption-capable tape drive reads and records the
encryption state of the tape, and the encryption state displays as
“Encrypted” or “Not Encrypted.” If the tape was not placed into an
encryption-capable tape drive in the library, or if the slot is empty,
the encryption state displays as “Unknown.”

recovery operation to remove a tape from the slot.
• Put Count
— the number of times the picker successfully placed a
tape into the slot.
• Put Retries
— the number of times the picker had to perform a
recovery operation to place a tape into the slot.
