Which four statements are true for an SL8500?

A.
Partitioned LSMs will not recognize other LSMs, within the library unless they are in the same
partition.

B.
The elevator operationisunder the control of the library controller when CAP operations are
issued.

C.
CAPS can either be shared or dedicated resources for partitions.

D.
All drives, storage slots, and cartridges within a partition are solely owned by that host or host
group.

E.
While duplicate VOLSERs are supported by the library, ACSLS does not support duplicate
VOLSRs unless they are in different partitions and the duplicate VOLSERs are on different ACLs
servers.

Explanation:

B:Elevator operation is under the control of the library controller when CAP operations are issued.
The library controller uses the elevators and HandBots to access the entire capacity of the CAPs
for enters and ejects without regard for the partitions.
Note: Elevators provide vertical pass-thru operations between rails within the same library.
Both elevators are located in the front of the library between the front access doors and
the Service Safety Door. Each of the four rails share the two elevators.
C: Partitions share the ownership of the CAPs. That is, if one host/partition has CAP A reserved, a
different host/partition can have CAP B reserved, or one host/partition can have both CAPs
reserved.
D: Elevators, robots, and CAPs are shared resources and—each partition can fully use shared
resources for cartridge movement, enter, and eject operations. All drives, storage slots and
cartridges within a partition are solely owned by that host or host group.
E: Duplicate VOLSERs are supported by the library; however, ACSLS and HSC do not, unless:
*The duplicate VOLSERs are in different partitions.
* With HSC managed partitions, the duplicate VOLSERs are in different control data sets.
* With ACSLS managed partitions, the duplicate VOLSERs are managed by different ACSLS

servers.
