Embodiment Construction

[0030] The present invention will be described as embodied in an automated tape library storage system for use in a data processing environment. While the invention has been shown using a magnetic tape cartridge, those skilled in the art will recognize that the invention is equally applicable to compact disc cartridges or other removable storage media, and to use either with different types of cartridges, or with cartridges having different features. box of the same type. Furthermore, the description of an automated tape storage system is not meant to limit the invention to tape data processing applications, as the invention herein can be applied generally to any media storage and cartridge processing system.

[0031] figure 1 with figure 2 An automated data storage library 10 is shown that stores and retrieves data storage cartridges containing data storage media (not shown) at multi-cartridge deep-slot units 100 and single-cartridge storage slots 16 . It should be noted ...

Abstract

In an automated data storage library having a plurality of multi-cartridge deep slot cells, each configured to store a plurality of data storage cartridges arranged in sequential order of tiers from front to rear, and having accessor(s) configured to selectively extract, place and transport cartridges with respect to the cells; operating the accessor(s) to selectively extract, place and transport cartridges with respect to the cells and with respect to other elements of the library. If all tiers of the selected cells except the rearmost tier are full, added cartridges are placed to fill the rearmost tier of an evenly spread selection of the cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to automated data repositories. More specifically, the present invention relates to storage libraries having multi-cassette deep slot units. Background technique [0002] Automated data repositories are known to provide cost-effective storage and retrieval of large amounts of data. Data in an automated data storage library is typically stored on media in a data storage cartridge, which in turn is stored in a storage slot or the like in the library in a form that makes the media and its resident data accessible for physical retrieval. Such data storage cartridges are often referred to as "removable media". Data storage cartridge media may include any type of media on which data may be stored and which may serve as removable media, including but not limited to magnetic media (such as magnetic tape or magnetic disks), optical media (such as optical tape or optical disks), electronic media ( e.g. PROM, EEPROM, Fla...
