Number Component Description
3 Cartridge magazine The tape library has a single cartridge magazine
that can hold up to 9 data cartridges, or 8 data
cartridges with a 1-slot I/O station. See
Figure 1-3 on page 1-4.
Column 5/Tier 1 in the cartridge magazine can
be configured as a 1-slot I/O station. Column
5/Tier 2 in the cartridge magazine is reserved
for the exchange position and can be accessed by
the library only. The I/O station is used to
import and export cartridges without
interrupting normal library operation. Beginning
with Column 4, a minimum of one column can
be reserved for cleaning cartridges. Cleaning
cartridges are used to clean the tape drive heads.
For configuration details, see Chapter 3,

When the I/O station is locked, insert a large,
straightened paper clip twice or hold the paper
clip in place while the cartridge magazine slides
past the I/O station lock.
5 Air vents These vents draw cooler air into the library
enclosure and allow warm air to escape which
helps keep the library at a normal operating
temperature.
