12. Choose one of the following options:
• To perform LUN mapping for the virtual library, click Map LUNs and proceed to “LUN Mapping
(v3.x)” on page 123 for further instructions.
• To continue creating the virtual library, click Create Tape Drives and proceed to “Creating
Tape Drives” on page 132.
• To exit the wizard, click Cancel.
The library is created but does not contain any tape drives or cartridges. You can add tape
drives and cartridges later.
Editing a Virtual Library's Slots and Drives
To edit the slots and drives of a virtual library, from Command View VLS:
1. Click the System tab.
2. Expand Chassis in the navigation tree.
3. Select Virtual Libraries in the navigation tree.
4. Select Edit Virtual Libraries in the task bar.
5. On the Edit Virtual Libraries screen, select the library you want to edit from the list.
6. Change the number of slots and/or the number of drives in the appropriate fields.
7. Select Next. A warning message indicates that some services will stop if you make any changes.
8. Select Edit Library to continue. The screen displays a “please wait” message.
You may select Return to cancel if you decide not to make the change.
9. Log out of the GUI and close the browser window. Log back in approximately fifteen minutes
later.
This manual disconnect ensures that the edit screens refresh.
10. Check the library you edited on the System tab to verify the change.
Creating Tape Drives
NOTE:
If you add a virtual tape drive to a library after another library has been created, the default LUN
number assigned to the tape drive will not be consecutive with the other virtual tape drives in the same
library. To correct this, restart the VLS device emulations. See “Restarting VLS Device
Emulations” on page 144. The VLS firmware will change the virtual device LUN numbers on the VLS
so that all the default tape drive LUNs in a library are consecutive.
NOTE:
A virtual library may only contain one type of tape drive.
