Setting Description
MAP
When manual access port (MAP) is selected, you can
use the first slot in the top left magazine to import
and export cartridges from the library. The host
views the MAP as a storage element; therefore, after
using the MAP to import a cartridge, you must
replace the data cartridge that was originally stored
there.
For information about importing and exporting
cartridges when
MAP is selected, see Importing a
Cartridge in MAP Mode on page 32 and Exporting a
Cartridge in MAP Mode on page 33.
10-Slot (or
12-Slot in
LTO libraries)
When this setting is selected, all slots in the top left
magazine are configured as import/export elements.
They cannot be used for storage.
For more information about importing and exporting
cartridges when
10-Slot (or 12-Slot) is selected,
see Importing Cartridges in 10-Slot or 12-Slot Mode
on page 34 and Exporting Cartridges in 10-Slot or
12-Slot Mode on page 35.
1-Slot
When this setting is selected, the first slot in the top
left magazine is configured as an import/export
element. It cannot be used for storage.
For more information about importing and exporting
cartridges when
1-Slot is selected, see Importing a
Cartridge in 1-Slot Mode on page 35 and Exporting a
Cartridge in 1-Slot Mode on page 36.
None
When this setting is selected, the top left magazine is
used as a 10- or 12-cartridge storage element and
behaves in exactly the same way as the other
magazines.
