4U Library I/O Slots, Storage Slots, and Drive Slots Element Addressesand Physical LocationsFor an overview of library partitioning and element addressing, see “LibraryPartitioning and Element Addressing.”The following table contains the physical location (Slot x) and SCSI elementaddress in decimal (4xxx) and in hexadecimal (0x10xx) of the I/O slots, storageslots, and drive slots in the 4U library containing only two drive sleds.In older 4U libraries where the Dedicated Cleaning Slot (DCS) is in a fixed location(slot 9) and elected by the user to be retained as a DCS (option to delete DCS isavailable in library firmware greater than 1.95), the above slot numbering andelement address changes starting with slot 10. In 4U libraries with a DCS, theinformation shown in slot 9 below moves to slot 10 and so forth through theremaining magazine slots. The final slot is slot 44 instead of slot 45 for librarieswithout a DCS. See “Configuring I/O Stations and Reserving Slots” on page 5-57for information on how to delete the dedicated cleaning slot. Once the DCS isdeleted, you cannot get it back. You will have to create a reserved slot if you wantto clean the drive(s).Table A-4. 4U library SCSI element addresses for storage slots and drive slotUpper Left Magazine⇐Front of 4U libraryLibraryRear PanelUpper Right MagazineFront of 4U library⇒Slot 184113(0x1011)Slot 194114(0x1012)Slot 204115(0x1013)Slot 214116(0x1014)Drive 2257(0x101)Slot 454140(0x102C)Slot 444139(0x102B)Slot 434138(0x102A)Slot 424137(0x1029)Slot 144109(0x100D)Slot 154110(0x100E)Slot 164111(0x100F)Slot 174112(0x1010)Slot 414136(0x1028)Slot 404135(0x1027)Slot 394134(0x1026)Slot 384133(0x1025)Slot 104105(0x1009)Slot 114106(0x100A)Slot 124107(0x100B)Slot 134108(0x100C)Slot 374132(0x1024)Slot 364131(0x1023)Slot 354130(0x1022)Slot 344129(0x1021)Lower Left MagazineDrive 1256(0x100)Lower Right MagazineI/O Slot 318(0x12)Slot 74102(0x1006)Slot 84103(0x1007)Slot 94104(0x1008)Slot 334128(0x1020)Slot 324127(0x101F)Slot 314126(0x101E)Slot 304125(0x101D)I/O Slot 217(0x11)Slot 44099(0x1003)Slot 54100(0x1004)Slot 64101(0x1005)Slot 294124(0x101CSlot 284123(0x101B)Slot 274122(0x101A)Slot 264121(0x1019)I/O Slot 116(0x10)Slot 14096(0x1000)Slot 24097(0x1001)Slot 34098(0x1002)Slot 254120(0x1018)Slot 244119(0x1017)Slot 234118(0x1016)Slot 224117(0x1015)Library Partitioning and Element AddressingLibrary 4U systems with firmware versions of .80 and higher, and containing atleast 2 drives, have the ability to configure two logical libraries (create twopartitions). This partitioning has been expanded with the new library firmware andhalf-high drive integration. Now it is possible to configure 1, 2, 3 or 4 partitions inthe 4U library. Additionally the 2U library can now be configured into one or twopartitions. Each library must contain at least one drive per logical library(partition). In a partitioned library, the Operator Control Panel (OCP) only reportsA-2 Dell PowerVault TL2000 Tape Library and TL4000 Tape Library User's Guide
