Which three statements about cap partitioning in the SL3000 are true?

A.
CAPs can only be shared by partitions with the same host interface type (FC-SCSLor HLI).

B.
Whole rotational or AEM CAPs can be allocated for exclusive use by one partition, or they can
beshared by multiple partitions.

C.
All CAPs in a partitioned library are unallocated by default. You use the SLC screens to allocate
CAPs as dedicated or shared.

D.
A portion of a CAP can be allocated to a partition.

Explanation:
A rotational or AEM CAP is a shared library resource, meaning all partitions in the

library can use the CAP. However, only one partition at a time can use a CAP. While a partition is
using a CAP for enters or ejects, the CAP is reserved to that partition and unavailable to all others.
For a partition to reserve a CAP, the CAP must meet all these conditions:
•Be available, meaning not reserved by any other partition
•Be empty
•Be closed and locked
