Configuring the Mailslot
Use the following steps to configure the mailslot option.
1. In the
Configure Mailslot menu, a message will remind you to check the
storage slot and mailslot configurations in the backup software.
Select [OK].
2. The next screen will describe the prerequisites for configuring the
mailslot. Verify these prerequisites have been met, then select [OK].
3. The display will indicate the current mailslot setting. Select the
number of mailslots desired (0, 1, 5, or 10). See Table 4-3 on page 4-9
for information about each option.
A confirmation screen automatically displays the success or failure of
the change and reminds you to reconfigure the backup software.

[Done] to exit.
CAUTION Do not change the mailslot setting without reconfiguring the backup
software. The backup software must reflect the mailslot setting to assist
in tracking tape exchanges and the current location of all tapes.
