• Firmware Revision — version of the currently installed drive firmware.

• SCSI ID (parallel SCSI drive only) — SCSI address of the drive. The LUN for the tape drive is 0.

If a drive is removed or powered off, its number will be reserved. If a drive is added between two

other drives, it is assigned the next available number. The drive numbers are persistent until the

factory defaults are restored or the Library is power cycled.

• World Wide ID (SAS drive only) — world wide unique name for the drive. The World Wide ID

is assigned by the library controller to the drive bay and cannot be changed by the user. When

a tape drive is replaced, the World Wide ID is re-assigned to the replacement drive.

• Physical Drive Slot Number — the physical location of the drive. By default, the drives are numbered

from the bottom of the device up, starting with number 1.

• SCSI Element Address (parallel SCSI or SAS drive) or Element Address (FC drive) — element ad-

dress. The SCSI Element Address is set at the factory and can only be configured by a host applic-

ation.

• Library LUN Hosted by Drive — Yes, if this drive is hosting the Library at LUN 1.

• Data Compression — Yes, if the host has hardware compression turned on for the drive.

• Interface Type — SCSI, Fibre Channel, or SAS

• WWide Node Name (FC drive only) — world wide unique number for the drive. The Library assigns

WWNames to the drive bays. When a tape drive is replaced, the WWName is re-assigned to

the replacement drive.

• Port information for each configured port (FC drive only)

• WWide Port Name — world wide unique identifier for the port. The WW Node and Port

Name will be slightly different.

• Port Type — the current setting of the drive port. Direct connected devices are typically Loop.

Devices connected to a switch are typically Fabric.
