Menus

LMC menus organize user commands into six groups: Operations, Monitor, Setup, Tools, View, and Help.

Use the Operations menu for day-to-day operations, including: changing mode, importing and exporting cartridges, taking

inventory, moving media; loading and unloading drives, and logging off.

Use the Monitor menu to view statistics at a glance as well as to get a detailed look at subsystem states. The choices

include: system, drives, connectivity, I/E station, slot, and media.

Use the Setup menu to configure the library. This tool provides configuration assistance for the following parameters:

partitions, device, connectivity, network configuration, physical library, users, notification, date and time, licenses, and e-mail

configuration.

Use the Tools menu to access diagnostic and maintenance tools for the physical library.They include: service, connectivity,

capture snapshot, and update software.

Use the View menu to specify the library-either physical or logical-information currently displayed in the Library Information

panel.

Use the Help menu to access online help as well as to learn the software build number and copyright date.

Some operations pertain only to a physical library, some only to a partition, and others can be carried out on either entity.

Table 4

summarizes all available commands by required user privilege level and required library environment. LMC prompts

you to take the library offline or to select the physical library if the command you are requesting requires you to change mode
