• Library home page (see
• Library configuration report (see
Report on page 141).
• Partition modification screen (select Setup > Configure Partitions,
select a partition, and click Modify).
An administrative user can control which partitions a specified user can

Web Client
Select Setup > User Management > User Accounts.
There are two partition modes: online and offline.
• Online — SCSI hosts control the partition. In this mode, all host
application SCSI commands are processed.
• Offline — SCSI hosts cannot control the partition. In this mode,
library operations can be performed via the local or remote user
interface.
Changing the partition mode changes whether or not the specified
partition is online or offline to the host application. Changing a
partition mode using the library interface may affect your host
application. See your host application documentation for more
information.
