4-14 Compaq StorageWorks TL881/TL891 Family MiniLibrary System Reference Guide Set Unload Mode This option determines whether a SCSI MOVE MEDIUM command is interpreted as implicit or explicit. If implicit, when the Base Module receives a SCSI MOVE MEDIUM command for a fetch from a drive, it unloads the drive before attempting to fetch a cartridge from that drive. If explicit, the host must issue a SCSI UNLOAD command before each MOVE MEDIUM command where the source element is a drive. The default is Implicit. Set Auto Clean Mode This function, when enabled, senses the tape drive's cleaning request and after the next unload, load a cleaning cartridge into the drive. After cleaning completes, the cartridge is returned to the slot. The default is Disabled. NOTE: This function requires setting at least one reserved slot starting with the last slot in the Expansion Unit (slot 15). If Multi-Unit, slot 9 for Base Module only. Set Negotiation This option enables the Base Module to initiate negotiations for synchronous data transfer and wide data transfer from the host. Only models with a fast/wide drive installed can initiate a 'wide' negotiation. The default is Do Not Initiate. Set Mail Slot Some of the available host software enables the system administrator to limit access to the MiniLibrary system as a whole while permitting insertion into or removal from the MiniLibrary system of one or more tape cartridges when needed. This feature is commonly called a mail slot. It is implemented using SCSI import/export elements.
