For
an
overview
of
library
partitioning
and
element
addressing,
see
The
following
table
contains
the
physical
location
(Slot
x)
and
SCSI
element
address
in
decimal
(4xxx)
and
in
hexadecimal
(0x10xx)
of
the
I/O
slots,
storage
slots,
and
drive
slots
in
the
4U
library
containing
only
two
drive
sleds.
In
older
4U
libraries
where
the
Dedicated
Cleaning
Slot
(DCS)
is
in
a
fixed
location
(slot
9)
and
elected
by
the
user
to
be
retained
as
a
DCS
(option
to
delete
DCS
is
available
in
library
firmware
greater
than
1.95),
the
above
slot
numbering
and
element
address
changes
starting
with
slot
10.
In
4U
libraries
with
a
DCS,
the
information
shown
in
slot
9
below
moves
to
slot
10
and
so
forth
through
the
remaining
magazine
slots.
The
final
slot
is
slot
44
instead
of
slot
45
for
libraries
without
a
DCS.
See
for
information
on
how
to
delete
the
dedicated
cleaning
slot.
Once
the
DCS
is
deleted,
you
cannot
get
it
back.
You
will
have
to
create
a
reserved
slot
if
you
want
to
clean
the
drive(s).

Element
Addressing
Library
4U
systems
with
firmware
versions
of
.80
and
higher,
and
containing
at
least
2
drives,
have
the
ability
to
configure
two
logical
libraries
(create
two
partitions).
This
partitioning
has
been
expanded
with
the
new
library
firmware
and
half-high
drive
integration.
Now
it
is
possible
to
configure
1,
2,
3
or
4
partitions
in
the
4U
library.
Additionally
the
2U
library
can
now
be
configured
into
one
or
two
partitions.
Each
library
must
contain
at
least
one
drive
per
logical
library
(partition).
In
a
partitioned
library,
the
Operator
Control
Panel
(OCP)
