Configure Clean Manager

After the cleaning pools are created and configured, they can be assigned to the appropriate drives
for the drive cleaning operation. Cleaning can be executed either automatically or by client request.
This can be done via the Configuration > Logical > Drive pane. Refer to
Specify the correct cleaning time according to the drive type and model.

Assign Drives to Cartridges

After the cartridges are created, they may be assigned to the appropriate drives for use by the
Generic mount operation. This will use the assigned drive as the first position in the list of possible
mount destinations. A cartridge can be assigned to one and only one drive, but the drive can be
assigned to multiple cartridges.
The assignment executes (and can be changed later) through the Configuration > Logical >
Cartridge pane. Refer to
This optional feature is not required for SCSI or ROBAR clients, but some DAS

the appropriate values through the Configuration > Clients > DAS > DAS Client pane. Refer to
