Maximizing Library Performance Through Drive Placement
■
To reduce elevator and pass-thru activity, place multiple drive types on each rail.
■
Group together tape drives and compatible cartridges on the same rail.
■
For high mount rate applications, do not place sixteen drives on an rail. This can
lead to increased wait times for the robot to be available. High mount rate
applications may require clustering drives on more than one rail.
■
In a redundant robotics library, install drives in the outer columns (± 2) first. This
allows both robots to access drives at the same time.
