Implementing Changes to Licensed Capacity

■

If, after capacity has been decreased, the total number of cells allocated to all 

partitions is still less than the new licensed capacity, you do not need to 

reconfigure the partitions. 

Host Notification of Capacity Changes 

When storage capacity is added or removed, the library controller notifies all affected 

hosts according to their interface requirements. SCSI hosts are notified by a “Mode 

Parameters Changed” unit attention. The host must re-audit the library to determine 

the specific configuration changes. See the appropriate tape management software 

documentation for detailed procedures and commands.
