Setting up a Mail Slot

Some of the available host software enables the system administrator to limit
access to the library as a whole while permitting insertion into or removal
from the library of one or more tape cartridges when needed. This feature is
commonly called a mail slot. It is implemented using SCSI Import/Export
elements.

In the MiniLibrary system, you can designate the magazine of any
MiniLibrary Base Module as the mail slot magazine. When you do so, the
