Initial Configuration

3-33

Drives can be defined before the creation of media classes. 
However, they ultimately must be associated with an archive 
before they can be used to mount media. 

After all drives are successfully defined, they must be 
associated with an archive before they can be used to mount 
media. The Associate Drive command is used to associate a 
drive with an archive. 

Drive association parameters are acquired by VolServ software 
via the GUI. Basic association parameters consist of associate 
drive, associate with archive, and CLM/DriveSlot (automated 
archive only). The associate drive entry must match a drive ID 
entered during drive definition. The associate with archive entry 
must match an archive name entered during archive 
configuration. 

When a drive is associated with an automated archive, the 
physical location of the drive must also be specified. This 
information is contained in the CLM/DriveSlot entry and 
describes the media hand-off location between the robot and the 
drive. Entries in this field are four integers, separated by 
commas, with the form #,#,#,# for the following archives:

•

DataShelf archive

•

DataTower archive

•

StorageTek ACS product family archives

Entries have the form Dc##010101 for the AML archives. The 
“c” character relates to the media type used by the drive. The 
“##” characters refer to a logical mapping of the drive slot XYZ 
position and is used by the AML archives.
