4. Select OK from the dialog box. The copy pool details screen refreshes and the message, "The slot map was successfully deleted from [copy pool name]" displays. NOTE: If a tape is in a newly unmapped section of a library, the tape will be moved to the firesafe. If the tape has not expired and been deleted from the firesafe, upon remapping of the section, the tape will move back and be removed from the firesafe. To add slot mapping to any copy pool which does not have slots mapped: 1. Under Destination Libraries, select Copy Pools from the navigator pane. 2. Select the appropriate copy pool to display the copy pool details screen. 3. From the task bar, select Edit Slot Maps. 4. On the Edit Slot Map screen, in the Add Additional Slots section, enter a start slot and end slot for the copy pool from the available slot ranges listed. 5. Select Add. The copy pool details screen refreshes and the message, "The slot map was successfully added to [copy pool name]" displays. To change slot mapping on a copy pool that already has slots mapped: 1. On the System tab, check the capacity of the copy pool to ensure there is room for copies. 2. From the copy pool details screen on the Automigration/Replication tab, select Edit Slot Maps on the taskbar. The Edit Slot Map window displays. 3. In the Current Slots section, select Edit for the slots you want to edit. The EDIT SLOT MAP window opens. 4. Change the Start and End slots. 5. Select Submit. If the change is successful, the copy pool details window displays, including the message, "The slot map was successfully changed". If the start and/or end slot is outside the available range, the EDIT SLOT MAP window refreshes and displays "The start and end slot define an invalid range." 6. If the slot map is not changed due to a slot range error, repeat this procedure and select slots within an available range. Changing the Slot Mapping for a LAN/WAN Library Slot mapping in the case of replication refers to the assignment of virtual slots in a library to correspond to a specific LAN/WAN replication target. Mapping occurs as a LAN/WAN replication target is created; however, mapping can be changed at any time. Reasons to change the slot mapping include the need for a group of slots to expand the number of slots on the LAN/WAN replication target, the need to shrink an existing LAN/WAN replication target, and the desire to rearrange the mapping so that the LAN/WAN replication targets correspond to a consecutive set of slots. To remove the slot mapping of any copy pool: 1. Select the Automigration/Replication tab. 2. Expand LAN/WAN Replication Libraries in the navigation tree, and then expand the appropriate library. 3. Select Copy Pools in the navigation tree. 4. On the Summary for Copy Pools screen, select the echo copy pool if interest to open the Echo Copy Pool Details screen for that copy pool. 5. From the task bar, select Edit Slot Maps. 6. On the Edit Slot Maps screen, select Delete corresponding to the slot map to remove. Editing Copy Pools 49
