Defining a 349X Library
Complete the following
fields to define the library, then click Finish, or click Cancel
to end this task.
Library Name
Enter the name of the library to be defined. This parameter is
required. The maximum length of this name is 30 characters.
Device
Enter the name of the device (the special file name) that corresponds to the
drive. This name is the same as the alias that is used by the device driver.
Scratch Category
Enter the category number to be used for scratch volumes
in the library. This parameter is optional.
- This value can be any number from 1 to 65279.
- The default value is 301 (X'12D').
- Attention: When support for 3590 drives in 349X
libraries is enabled, Tivoli Storage Manager automatically creates two scratch categories
when the library is defined. The first category is for 3490 scratch
volumes. The second scratch category is for 3590 scratch volumes, and is
one greater than the value specified with this parameter. The default
value for this second category is 302 (X'12E'). The new
category that Tivoli Storage Manager creates for 3590 scratch volumes
could duplicate a category already assigned to another
application and cause loss of data.
Private Category
Enter the category number for private volumes that must be
mounted by name. This parameter is optional.
- This value can be any number from 1 to 65279 inclusive.
- The default value is 300 (X'12C').
