Configure Partitions

Partitioning is used to allow your single Scalar 24 library to be logically partitioned so it appears to a host as

if it were two independent physical libraries. Each logical library (partition) can be independently controlled

as though it were a separate library. The partitioning types available are random-sequential, sequential-

sequential, LUN-sequential, LUN-LUN, and sequential-LUN; random-random is not supported at this time.

Partition 1 can operate in random, sequential, or LUN (LTO only) modes.

Partition 2 can operate in sequential or LUN (LTO only) modes.

The partition size is configurable. Each partition is assigned one of the front magazines but may have a

configurable number of rear slots (minimum 1) assigned. The first drive module is assigned to the first

partition and the second drive module is assigned to the second partition. If the library is not partitioned, all

data slots and drive modules are assigned to a single partition. Follow the procedure below to configure

partitions.

Note

Partition only appears in the Configure Slots menu if you have specified Rnd-

Seq, Seq-Seq, LUN-Seq, Seq-LUN, or LUN-LUN mode. LUN modes can be

specified only on libraries with LTO drives. Otherwise your Scalar 24 operates

as a single library.
