The library assigns each tape drive a SCSI element address that consists of a value that defines a logical
location in the library to the SCSI interface. It is assigned and used by the application when the host
server processes SCSI commands. The SCSI element address for a drive is unique to the location of the
drive. It does not vary based on other drives in the library. See “Library partitioning” on page 57.
