Shelves within a DataShelf archive are numbered within Row.

shelves per row, the shelves are labeled sequentially as follows:
Row 1 Shelf 1, …, Row 1 Shelf4, Row 2 Shelf 1, … Row 2
Shelf 4, Row 3 Shelf 1, …, Row 3 Shelf 4.
For example, if a DataShelf archive has three rows with four
shelves per row, the shelves are labeled sequentially as follows:
Row 1 Shelf 1, …, Row 1 Shelf4, Row 2 Shelf 1, … Row 2
Shelf 4, Row 3 Shelf 1, …, Row 3 Shelf 4.

Wrap
When the wrap fill mode is specified, VolServ software begins
its scan for a shelf with an available storage bin with the shelf

assigned bin was in Row 2 Shelf 3, the next shelf scanned is
Row 2 Shelf 4.
If VolServ does not find an available storage bin by the time it
has scanned the last physical shelf in the archive (Row 3 Shelf
4), the search for an available storage bin wraps to the first
physical shelf in the archive (Row 1 Shelf 1). VolServ software
continues scanning the shelves sequentially until a shelf with an
available storage bin is found.
