Optional Library Features
The following features are optional features for the SL8500 library.
Partitioning
Library partitioning is an optional feature that reserves library resources for the
exclusive use of specified hosts. Partitioning is enabled with a hardware activation file
(see "Activating Optional Features" on page 5-1). You can partition a single library or a
library complex using SLC.
Single Library Partitioning
■ Can contain up to eight partitions.
■ The smallest slot increment is one array.
■ The smallest drive increment is one drive.
Library Complex Partitioning
■ Can contain up to 16 partitions.
