4U library I/O slots, storage slots, drive slots element addresses, and
physical locations
For an overview of library partitioning and element addressing, see “Library partitioning and element
addressing” on page 287.
The following table contains the physical location (Slot x) and SCSI element address in decimal (4xxx)
and in hexadecimal (0x10xx) of the I/O slots, storage slots, and drive slots in the 4U library containing
two drive sleds.
In older 4U libraries where the Dedicated Cleaning Slot (DCS) is in a fixed location (slot 9) and elected to
be retained as a DCS (option to delete DCS is available in library firmware greater than 1.95), the above
slot numbering and element address changes starting with slot 10. In 4U libraries with a DCS, the
information shown in slot 9 below moves to slot 10 and so forth through the remaining magazine slots.
The final slot is slot 44 instead of slot 45 for libraries without a DCS. See “Configuring I/O stations and
reserving slots” on page 160 for information on how to delete the dedicated cleaning slot. Once the DCS
is deleted, you cannot get it back. You must create a reserved slot if you want to clean the drives.
