Library Complex IDs

Note – This section is applicable only to SL8500 libraries.

In order for STA to roll up library complex data correctly, each library complex at your site must have a unique complex ID. On SL8500 libraries, complex IDs are set manually, so you must ensure they are set correctly:

•	Each standalone SL8500 is considered to be a separate complex and therefore must have a unique complex ID.

•	Each multi-library complex must have a unique complex ID, and all libraries within the complex must share the same ID.

Caution – The Oracle Service Delivery Platform (SDP) also uses complex IDs for tracking library data. If SDP is in use at your site, consult Oracle Service before changing any complex ID. Changing the complex ID could cause SDP to fail. In most cases, complex IDs are set correctly when SDP is connected.

TABLE 1 ‑3 lists valid SL8500 complex ID assignments at a site.

See “Ensure the Correct Library Complex ID” for detailed instructions.

**TABLE 1‑3** Complex ID Assignments
Complex Type	Libraries	Assigned Complex ID
Multi-library complex	SL8500-1 SL8500-2 SL8500-3	1 1 1
Standalone libraries	SL8500‑4 SL8500-5	2 3
