Assigning cartridges to a logical library

How to assign data cartridges to a logical library in the TS3500 tape library.

1. From the Work Items navigation pane, select Cartridges —> Data Cartridges. The Data Cartridges screen displays.
2. Select the logical library to which the cartridge is currently assigned and select how you want the cartridge range to be sorted. (The library can sort the cartridge by volume serial number (VOLSER), SCSI element address, or frame, column, and row location.) Select Search.
   The Cartridges screen displays all ranges for the logical library that you specified.
3. Select the range that contains the data cartridge that you want to assign.
4. Select the data cartridge, then from the Select Action drop-down list, select Assign, then select Go.
5. In the Select a Logical Library pop-up window, select the logical library to which you want to assign the data cartridge.
6. Select Next to complete the function.
7. When a message is displayed that the data cartridge is assigned, select Close.
   Note: If the cartridges were assigned to a logical library that is attached to a 3953 L05 Library Manager, the operator must initiate an inventory upload from the operator panel or through the Web specialist of the 3953 L05 Library Manager. This action is required because the inventory of the library manager does not automatically update when data cartridges are assigned to logical libraries through the Tape Library Specialist Web interface of the TS3500 tape library.
