Configuring drive cleaning

When you create or modify a partition, you can specify that tape drives in that partition be
automatically cleaned each time the drive requests a cleaning operation.

For automatic drive cleaning to function, you must configure drive cleaning for the library. To
configure drive cleaning, first assign cleaning magazines, and then import cleaning media.
Designated cleaning media can also be used when manually cleaning drives. (Cleaning magazines
and media are not part of any logical partition, and so are not visible to the host application.)

If cleaning magazines are no longer needed, you can unassign them. In addition, you can export
expired cleaning media to remove it from the library.

NOTE:

Automatic drive cleaning should be enabled for partitions only if the host application

does not support the coordination of drive cleaning. If drive cleaning functionality is enabled on
the host application, do not enable automatic drive cleaning for any partitions in the library.

For more information about enabling automatic drive cleaning for a partition, see

“Working with

partitions” (page 27)

. For more information about manually cleaning drives, see

“Cleaning a drive”

(page 136)

.

NOTE:

Periodic drive cleaning allows drive cleaning to be scheduled for pre-determined intervals.

This functionality is only supported with LTO-5 and newer drives.

Assigning cleaning magazines and importing cleaning media

To configure the library for drive cleaning, first assign one or more magazines as cleaning
magazines, and then import cleaning media.

NOTE:

At least one magazine must be assigned for cleaning before you can import cleaning

media. Also, only magazines that do not belong to a partition can be assigned for cleaning.
