206 Configuring the Library
In this figure, the Internal LUN column has been scrolled down. The Show Details view for partitions
shows the partition name, product ID, vendor ID, and the serial number of the partition. For drives, LMC
displays the device LUN, connection type, port connection, vendor ID, serial number, and the
associated partition.
The following table describes the descriptors that appear in the Show Details view for partitions.
The following table describes the descriptors that appear in the Show Details view for drives.
In the default view, only the names of available partitions and the names of the devices (drives) are
shown. LUN spaces from 0-255 are available. In the Show Details view, a partition that has not yet
been manually reassigned to a new map position appears in heavy black type in the Internal LUN
column. Partitions are treated by the library as devices. You must assign a partition to the LUN/External
LUN column for the LMC to manage it and its media. In this example, the control LUN has already been
remapped as shown in heavy black type in the LUN/External LUN column.
4 If you are working from the local touch screen, you must select an internal device LUN, select the left
arrow, and then select the desired external LUN. If you are working from the remote client, you can use
the select method or you can drag and drop the devices from the Internal LUN column to the
appropriate LUN assignment in the LUN/External LUN column. Always use LUN 0 for command and
control.
Descriptor Description
Partition Name Name assigned during partition creation process.
Product ID
The Product ID setting controls the product ID string that is returned in a
standard SCSI INQUIRY response. The library can report that it is a Scalar 24,
Scalar i500, Scalar 100, Scalar 1000, Scalar i2000, Scalar i6000, or Scalar 10K.
This feature can enable the library to be used with host applications that do not
yet include the Scalar i6000 in a list of recognized devices. In addition, the
various Microsoft Windows operating systems maintain a list of recognized
devices. If the Scalar i6000 is not in an operating system list of recognized
devices, the library will appear as an unknown device in device lists. You might
prevent the library from being listed as unknown by setting Product ID to a
library other than Scalar i6000. This setting does not cause any library
operational changes other than the SCSI INQUIRY response.
Vendor ID ADIC or Quantum
Serial Number Partition ID as shown by System→ Monitor.
Descriptor Description

Vendor ID Drive manufacturer.
Serial Number Drive Serial Number.
