Partition the Library

Partitioning breaks the library into smaller sections and allows multiple host systems to access library resources.

Each partition acts as an independent library, but all partitions share the reserved cells, the single robot, and the four-cartridge mailslot. Partitioning allows multiple hosts to access the library.

Requirements:

  • Maximum of eight partitions (code versions before 2.0 only support two partitions)
  • Each partition must have it's own bridged drive
  • Each partition must have at least one magazine
  • Mailslot must be closed, locked, and empty before changing the partitioning configuration
