Empty slots
Empty slots are slots that contain no cartridges; all the fields are empty.
• Tape drive row: A library consists of two devices; a tape drive and changer device. This location
refers to the tape drive element of the library. It is normally only populated when the backup ap-
plication on the host is writing to or reading from the library.
• Mail slot row: This location refers to the slot that is used for importing and exporting data. It is
only populated:
• When the backup application on the host moves data into it for export to a tape drive attached
to the HP D2D Backup System. Once the export has been run successfully from the Web Inter-
face, the slot becomes empty again.
• Or when the Web Interface is used to import data from a tape drive attached to the HP D2D.
The backup application on the host is used to move the data back into a numbered slot and
the mail slot becomes empty again.
• Numbered slot row: This slot is empty after a Delete operation or after the backup application has
moved data to the mail slot for export.
Once a mail slot or numbered slot is empty, a (Create) icon is available in the far right column
to create a new, blank cartridge. See “To create a cartridge” on page 119.
To delete a cartridge
If the Used Size of a cartridge is Blank, you will be able to remove it.
Click on the (Delete) icon in the right-hand column. If the Used Size is not Blank, you can still
remove it but only space that is occupied by unique data will be freed up.
To write protect a cartridge
Click Edit for the appropriate cartridge. Check the Write Protected check box for the cartridge. Your
backup application will not be able to write any more data to it.
