There are three user privilege levels: guest, user, and administrator. Guests see only the Library Management Console main

screen. Users are allowed to operate a partition, but cannot run diagnostic tools (which require access to the physical

library), and administrator users are allowed access to the entire physical library and all of its partitions. For a summary of

user privileges defined by physical library, partition, and command menu, refer to

Table 4

.
