38 Configuring the Library
Caution
Make sure the library has empty slots available in the cleaning slot magazine
before you add more cleaning slots. These are located in the three innermost
slots (innermost column) of the lower right magazine.
When the number of cleaning slots is increased, the added slots are taken from the partition owning
the lower right magazine. The number of available slots in the affected partition is decreased by the
same number.
When the number of cleaning slots is decreased, the released slots are added to the partition owning
the lower right magazine. Make sure to remove the cleaning cartridges from the library before you
reduce the number of cleaning slots.
The cleaning slots are configured with the Setup Wizard. After the initial setup of your library you can
later access the cleaning slot configuration screens directly:
From the RMI, select Setup > Slots
From the FPI, select Setup > Slots
Configuring Partitions
Partitions are virtual sections within a library that present the appearance of multiple, separate
libraries for purposes of file management, access by multiple users, or dedication to one or more host
applications. By default, the library has one partition, which includes all of the library s resources.
Administrator can create and delete all partitions. The partitions are generated manually one at a
time. You can create partitions on either the front panel or the remote management interface.
Operator has access to all partitions but cannot create or delete partitions.
At minimum, a partition consists of one tape drive and one magazine. The tape drive or slot cannot be
shared with another partition (an exception to the sharing restrictions are cleaning tapes and the I/E
station slots, which are shared among all partitions).
You can later change your partition setup either from the front panel interface or the remote
management interface.
Creating Partitions
Use the front panel or remote management interface to create partitions. The maximum number of
partitions that can be created depends on how many drives are installed (up to 4). The Administrator
must define at least one partition.
To define Partition 1, the user will be asked to select the drive(s) that shall be associated with the
partition.
The user will also be asked to select which available magazines to include in the partition. Depending
on the selections for I/E and cleaning slots, the number of slots for some magazines may be affected.
The wizard displays the number of slots associated with each magazine based on the input for I/E
and cleaning so that it is visible to the operator.
For each partition, the user is asked to verify, or change, the SCSI ID and Control Path, to specify
whether he wants Autoclean enabled or disabled, and to specify the Barcode Reporting mode (6
characters or 13 characters).
If there is at least one unassigned drive and one unassigned magazine, the wizard asks if the user
wants to configure another partition. If yes, then repeat the steps for partition setup. If no, the user
gets a warning that there are unassigned resources in the library.
The partitions are configured with the Setup Wizard. If you later want to change your partition
configuration, you can either re-run the Setup Wizard or access the partition configuration screens
directly:
From the RMI, select Setup > Partition/Drive
