After initialization, the firmware causes the library to select the first available cartridge found (counting from the I/O Station through the last slot in your library) for loading into the drive. Important: If a Logical Library in Sequential Mode contains more than one drive, only the first drive in the Logical Library will be utilized. - Autoload: Sequential mode with autoload mode ON loads the first available cartridge (slot with the lowest numerical value that contains a cartridge) automatically if the library powers ON with an empty drive. - Loop: Sequential mode with loop mode ON loads the cartridge in the lowest numerical slot after the cartridge in the highest numerical slot has been filled and sent back to its home slot. This allows endless backup operations without user interaction. v Active Slots - Select the number of active slots you would like to assign in your library. This item will affect the number of Res.

If not, the first 3 slots (in a 4U library or the 1st slot in a 2U library) are configured as storage. See "Configure Library: General" on page 5-44. v Auto Clean Enabled - Automatically cleans drive when drive requests cleaning and cleaning cartridge is present in a reserved slot or a dedicated cleaning slot.
