and the library controller.
dynamic WWN
When enabled, dWWN assigns names to library drive slots rather than devices. When
a drive is replaced, the new drive receives the same name as the one it replaced,
thereby eliminating the need for system re-configuration. dWWN assigns names to
individual tape drive slots rather than devices
ECM
See electronics control module (ECM).
ELS
See Enterprise Library Software.
ERS
See emergency robotics stop switch (ERS).
eject
See export.
electronics control module (ECM)
A module that includes the HBK card, HBC/HBCR card, and HBT card. The ECM
Processes commands from a host system assembly, coordinates the activities of library
components, and monitors status inputs from sensors and switches
elevator
The device that transports cartridges vertically. The SL8500 library features two
elevators that move cartridges between the rails of the library.
emergency robotics stop switch (ERS)
