Configure Drive Auto-Cleaning
Enable drive auto-cleaning to have the library manage and respond to any cleaning requests made by drives.
When auto-cleaning is enabled the library will automatically mount a cleaning tape from a system cell to a drive that has indicated it needs cleaning following a dismount. This cleaning operation occurs before the library returns the status for the dismount operation. If disabled, the host software must manage drive cleaning. The library only uses cleaning tapes from system cells for auto cleaning. Cleaning tapes for host managed drive cleaning reside in storage cells.
