Specifications and Additional Information

■Virtual Tape Drive Mapping and Host Addressing

A VSM5-VTSS can be configured with up to 256 virtual tape drives (VTDs). During VTSS installation, all 256 available VTDs are mapped as shown in Table A-3below. Mapping of all available VTDs is required by VTSS microcode, and applies whether the VTDs are ulti- mately defined or undefined.

Table A-3. Mapping Parameters for 256 Virtual Tape Drives (VTDs)
