from the DX3000/DX5000 system. 
The following inquiry strings are available:
• ATL P1000
• ATL P7000
• DX3000/DX5000
If you select ATL P1000 or ATL P7000, the DX3000/DX5000 appears as 
the appropriate library to the host and backup application. If you 
select 
Quantum DX3000 and Quantum DX5000 the host and backup 
application recognize the devices as a
 Quantum DX3000 or Quantum 
DX5000 
system respectively.
5 Select the number of tape drives (emulated DLT7000 or HP LTO 2) 
available to the host and backup application in this partition. The 
Default partition contains 6 tape drives at the time of installation, 
however, you can change the number of drives.
6 Enter the number of empty bins available in addition to the number 
of cartridges created in the partition. The default number of empty 
bins is 0 and up to 28 empty bins can be selected.
7 Select the number of tape cartridges from the Available Tape Cartridge 
list and click the right arrow button to move the cartridges into the 
partition.
8 Click Apply to create the partition.
Note: Quantum recommends that the device configuration be set 
to DX5000 inquiry strings for improved performance. If 
your backup application does NOT support DX3000 and 
DX5000, select 
ATL P1000 or ATL P7000.
Note: If all tape drives are assigned to other partitions, you must 
unassign one or more tape drives to make them available 
for a new partition. 
Note: If all tape cartridges are assigned to other partitions, you 
must unassign one or more tape cartridges to make them 
available for a new partition. Be aware that all cartridges 
that were created at the time of installation are assigned to 
the Default partition.
