Function

Description

Identity Screen

Contains basic configuration information. The library name and IP

address is obtained from Command View TL. Other information comes

from the robot firmware.
The number of interface controllers and tape drives installed in the

library are listed, as well as the total number of available storage slots.

For example, load port slots configured as storage slots are counted in

the total of available slots, while load ports used to move tape cartridges

in and out of the library are not counted in the total.
This screen also shows the library model, library serial number, and

library firmware version.

power supplies, load ports, tape drives, interface controllers, and

Interface Manager card.

Component Status

and tape drive odometer. The odometer counts the number of loads

for each tape drive. The load count is reset when a tape drive is

each tape drive on individual screens. Select the Page Up and Page

Down tabs to move between available tape drives.
