Drive Bay Locations

The SL8500 library features automatic detection of drives that are added or replaced. 

There are four types of addressing schemes for drives:

■

Bay address (the physical location)

■

Internal address (assigned by the library firmware)

■

HLI-PRC (Host LMU Interface - panel, row, column address assigned by the host 

software)

■

System addresses (assigned by the operating system)

Bay Address

The drive bay address is a two-digit number (01-64) representing the physical locations 

into which drive tray assemblies are inserted. The bay number of a drive is strictly 

internal to the library, defined by a drive’s position within a drive array. A drive is 

automatically assigned a number from 1– 64 by the library controller after the drive is 

installed and the library is re-initialized. 

A decal on the rear of the Drive and Electronics Module depicts the bay numbers, as 

shown in 

. The bay numbers indicate the physical location of 

drives. You have to be familiar with the bay numbers to locate a drive to perform a 

manual mount (see 

).
