This report identifies how tape drive resources are utilized in your library. You can use this report to help you determine the
proper work load distribution between the tape drives in your library.
The following information is collected for each tape drive installed in the library:
•
Drive location (module, row)
•
Drive serial number
•
Partition
•
Megabytes read
•
Megabytes written
•
Time and date of mount (UTC)
•
Time and date of dismount (UTC)
•
Media motion time (in seconds)
•
Tape cartridge barcode
To configure the report, specify the following:
•
Range — Specifies the range of time covered in the report. Choose one of the following:
•
Last 7 days
•
Last 4 weeks (default)
•
Last 3 months

•
Attribute — Specifies which values are included in the report. Select one of the following:
•
Data Written/Read (default) — the amount of data written to and read from each tape drive, shown separately in
the chart.
•
Total Read and Write — the combined total amount of data written to and read from each tape drive.
•
Media Mount Count — the number of tape cartridge mounts.
•
Media Mount Time — the total amount of time media spent in the selected drive(s).
•
Media Motion Time — the total amount of time media spent in motion while in the tape drive (writing, reading,
rewinding, etc.).
•
Chart — How the data is displayed in the chart. Select Area, Bar (default), Line, or Pie.
•
Type — The chart type. Select one of the following:
•
Rollup (default) — Displays the Grouping on the x-axis and the Attribute amount on the y axis.
•
Trend — Shows how the Attribute amount changes over time for the selected Grouping.
•
Grouping — specifies which tape drive(s) or partition(s) to include in the report. Select one of the following:
•
All Drives by Coordinate (default) — Presents the sum total of the selected attribute for all tape drives according to
their location in the library. If more than one tape drive resided in that location during the selected range, then the
attribute values for all the tape drives that resided in that location are combined in the chart.
•
All Drives by Physical SN — Presents the sum total of the selected attribute for all drives according to the physical
tape drive serial number.
•
All Partitions — Presents a comparison of all drives grouped by partition in the physical library.
•
Selected Drive by Coordinate — The report chart is based on an individual tape drive location in the library. If more
than one tape drive resided in that location during the selected range, then the attribute values for all the tape
drives that resided in that location are combined in the chart.
•
Selected Drive by Physical SN — The report chart is based on an individual tape drive identified by its physical
drive serial number.
•
Selected Partition — The report chart is based on an individual partition in the physical library.
