These are used in conjunction with Tivoli Storage Manager Version 4.1 Administrator's Guide and Administrator's Reference. These diagrams can be added to their sections for recording the SCSI ID's and device names. Element addresses are used by Tivoli Storage Manager to address the tape drive device and the storage slots contained by a SCSI Library/Autochanger. The Tivoli Storage Manager command DEFINE DRIVE utilizes the element address of each drive in a multi-drive library. The Tivoli Storage Manager command CHECKIN LIBVOL uses the address of a storage slot for libraries that do not have Entry/Exit ports. With the exception of DUAL LUN (Logical Unit Numbers) devices, you will need separate SCSI ID for your autochanger and a SCSI ID for each drive in your library device. Configure the autochanger and each drive in the library separately using the procedure described in the 'Configuring a Tape Drive, or Autochanger' section of the Tivoli Storage Manager Administrator's Guide. NOTE: On some libraries, the element addresses of the cartridge slots will not directly correspond to the slot numbers (e.g. slot number 1 may be element address 2, etc.). This is important because Tivoli Storage Manager will always reference cartridge slots by element addresses, not slot numbers. _______________________________ Figure 1 ________________________________ Default Element Addresses for ATL P2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Addresses Addresses of Addresses of Addresses of Model #s of Drives Storage slots Transport Entry/Exit Slots ----------- ---------- ------------- ------------ ---------------- P2000 128-137 256-453 1 64-75 Data Transfer Element (Drive) Import/Export Element (Load Port) ----------------------------- --------------------------------- Drive Address Load Port Address _______ ______ 8 | 136 | <- Expansion Drive 0 | 64 | |_______| . | .. | <- Magazine 1 9 | 137 | <- Expansion Drive 5 | 69 | |_______| |______| 0 | 128 | 6 | 70 | |_______| . | .. | <- Magazine 2 1 | 129 | 11 | 75 | |_______| |______| | | | ... | |_______| 7 | 135 | |_______| Storage Slot Element -------------------- (for 8-drive configuration) Front Door Library _______________________ _______________________ |_106_|_138_|_158_|_178_| |___0_|__32_|__64_|__96_| |_107_|_139_|_159_|_179_| |___1_|__33_|__65_|__97_| |_108_|_140_|_160_|_180_| |___2_|__34_|__66_|__98_| |_109_|_141_|_161_|_181_| |___3_|__35_|__67_|__99_| |_..._| | |_..._|_..._|_..._|_100_| |_..._| Load Port | |_..._|_..._|_..._|_101_| |_..._| | |_..._|_..._|_..._| | |_..._|_____ _____ _____| |_..._|_..._|_..._| Drives |_..._|_142_|_162_|_182_| |_..._|_..._|_..._| | |_..._|_143_|_163_|_183_| |_..._|_..._|_..._|_____| |_..._|_..._|_..._|_..._| |_..._|_..._|_..._|_102_| (96) |_135_|_..._|_..._|_..._| |_..._|_..._|_..._|_103_| (97) |_136_|_156_|_176_|_196_| |__30_|__62_|__94_|_104_| (98) |_137_|_157_|_177_|_197_| |__31_|__63_|__95_|_105_| (99) * With expansion drives which will replace slot 96-101, slot 96-191 will start at the location of slot 102 in this figure.

When set for single slot mailbox, the magazine is physically restricted to allow access only to slot 1. When set for 10-slot mailbox, the entire magazine can be removed. 3. Tivoli Storage Manager does not support mixed drives in a library. Only one drive type may be defined to a single library. 4.
