Notes
  • Library capacity
    • 6 Half-Height(HH) or 3 Full Height(FH) drives per module
    • 42 HH or 21 FH drives per full stack
    • 80 slots per module, 560 slots per full stack
    • 10 mail slots per module, 70 per full stack
  • Barcodes are required.
  • Eight character barcodes are required. The last 2 characters must be the media identifier "L#" where # is the tape cartridge generation. For example, ABC456L5 for an LTO-5 cartridge. Without a proper barcode label, a volume will appear as "unknown media".
