Choosing the Number of Logical Libraries for Your Library
Note: Review the information in “Determining the Number of Logical Libraries”
on page 3-1 before completing the procedure in this section.
If you have a 2U or 4U library with only one drive, or do not wish to partition
your library, proceed to the next section, “Entering Path Failover Feature
Activation Key” on page 4-21.
One cartridge magazine cannot be assigned to two logical libraries. If you partition
a multi-drive library, each of the magazines must be assigned to a logical library
on a magazine boundary. The entire magazine must be part of one logical library
only.
Note: If you have a 2U library with two drives, you have the capability to have
two logical libraries.
In a fully populated 4U library with two full height drives and two logical
libraries, resource assignments will be as follows:
v Logical Library 1 will contain Drive 1 and the left cartridge magazines.
v Logical Library 2 will contain Drive 2 and the right cartridge magazines.
The I/O Station and slots reserved for cleaning cartridges, if any, are shared among
all logical libraries.
