Monitoring I/E station status
The I/E Station Status dialog box displays detailed information about the magazine slots in the
I/E stations within the currently selected partition. If you are working in the physical library, status
information appears for all magazine slots in all I/E stations. You can perform this procedure while
viewing either the physical library or a partition.
NOTE: For libraries shipped before May 2013 and running a library firmware version prior to
663H, only modules 1-8 can have I/E stations. Modules 9-16, if present, do not support I/E
stations.
For libraries shipped after May 2013 and running library firmware version 663H or later, I/E
stations can be supported throughout the library, with certain expections. For more information on
specific rules and restrictions on I/E station placement, see “Import/Export stations” (page 19).
