We recently setup a 3584, and had a IBM technician put his hand on the machine, to enable warranty. According to him, the first two slots are reserved, one for diagnostic cartridge, and one for cleaning cartridge. According to him, theese slots can not be used for standard LTO cartridges, and TSM will not see them during label/checkin.
This was also verified as we had put two cartridges in the first two slots. However, theese cartridges was not seen by TSM. The 3494 also has theese reserved cartridges. The LTO 3584-L32 builds on the base of the 3494.

Aren't you confusing the 3584 with a 3494? As far as I can find in the doc's, there is no fixed cleaner slot in a 3584 and I don't even have a CE cartridge!

I checked my 3584 library through the IBM 3584 UltraScalable Tape Library Specialist and I saw something strange. If I select the Physical Library option it shows: Total storage slots: 253 and Empty storage slots: 2. All storage slots are actually filled! When I click on Total storage slots I see that it list all slots, stating at Column 1, Row 2 up to Column 8, Row 44. I then checked the Logical library configuration (Settings, Library Configuration). It shows the following settings: Slot physical location - START Frame 1 Column 1 Row 2 Slot physical location - END Frame 1 Column 8 Row 44 Maybe that's the cause? Is this setting ok? If not, what should it be and how do I change it? Thank you very much for your reply in advance!!
