It provides tabular data on the capacity of the library’s partitions, slots,
and tape drives. It also displays whether partitions are online or offline
(in the Storage Slots section). The current user’s login privileges
determine which partitions are displayed (see
Privilege Levels on
page 81).
Subsystem Status You can quickly gauge the health of the library by observing the color of
the three subsystem status buttons located at the bottom of the home
page. These buttons provide quick access to information about the
“health” of the library for faster recovery if problems occur. You can
select the buttons to view diagnostic tickets that report problems in the
subsystems.
The three subsystems are:
•
Library — Represents connectivity, control, cooling, power, and
robotics.
•
Drives — Represents tape drive components, such as tape drives,
tape drive firmware, and tape drive sleds.
•
Media — Represents media components, such as cartridges and
barcode labels.
Each button has three states indicated by color. The three states are:
Green (check mark) — No diagnostic tickets exist, or, if any tickets
do exist, they have all been closed.
Yellow (exclamation point) — The library contains open or
unopened, low- or high-priority diagnostic tickets.
Red (“X” mark) — The library contains open or unopened urgent
diagnostic tickets.
If the color of a subsystem button is red or yellow, you can click the
button to display the corresponding
Diagnostic Tickets screen. This
screen lists library, drives, or media tickets, depending on which button
was selected. See
About Diagnostic Tickets on page 312 for more
information.
