Configure Default Slot of the Tape Library

When adding additional Bricks to an existing virtual Tape Library, they are by default placed directly into an available slot. Connected software detects this through a tape import operation.

By changing this setting, new tapes are added to the virtual Tape Library via the virtual I/O slot and can be imported and correctly placed in the connected software using its import function.

➤ Click the “Edit” button in the “Default Slot for New Library Bricks” section.
➤ The “Default Slot for New Library Bricks” window opens.

➤ Select either I/O Slot or Storage Slot.

➤ Select the option “Import Volumes Automatically”.
➤ To confirm your input, click the "Save" button.
➤ To cancel your selection, click the button "Cancel".

Edit the size of the index partitions

Adjustment of this value is expressly recommended only after consultation with FAST LTA GmbH support.

Under “Index Partition Size Defaults”, the default values for the size of the index partitions in the WORM archive area and the Secure NAS ERC area can be modified. These values apply to SNAS ERC Volumes and Archives created in the future, as well as to Silent Bricks added to existing SNAS ERC Volumes or Archives.

Set System ID

The System ID is an internal identifier provided with your maintenance contract from FAST LTA.

During login, the system continuously requests this ID until it has been entered.

To edit the System ID, proceed as follows:

➤ Click the "Edit" button in the "System ID" section.
➤ The "System ID" window will open.

➤ Enter the correct System ID.
