About the Configuration Record
The configuration record is a text file that contains details about the library's configuration. The configuration record can be e-mailed saved to a location on your hard drive or e-mailed to a specified e-mail address.
Information in the configuration record includes:
- Product information — Vendor, model, product ID, product version (library firmware version), and serial number
- License information — Licensed slots, installation date, and expiration date
- Primary Network Information — Host Name, DHCP enabled, IP address, IP gateway, IP netmask, Ethernet link present, Ethernet link speed (Mbits/s), and Ethernet MAC
- Module information — Manufacturer, module, module serial number, and location coordinates
- Tape drive information:
- SCSI tape drives — Partition name, number of tape drives in partition, drive location, SCSI element address, online status, active status, ready state, vendor, model, serial number, tape drive firmware version, drive type, logical serial number, interface type, SCSI ID, and logical unit number (LUN)
- Fibre Channel (FC) tape drives — Partition name, number of tape drives in partition, drive location, SCSI element address, online status, active status, ready state, vendor, model, serial number, tape drive firmware version, drive type, logical serial number, interface type, World Wide Node Name (WWNN), loop ID, topology, speed, and actual speed

NOTE: If the FC tape drive is attached to an FC I/O blade, the WWNN indicates the WWNN of the I/O blade, not the tape drive.
|
- Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) tape drives — partition name, number of tape drives in partition, drive location, SCSI element address, interface type, drive type, ready state, online status, barcode, media type, element address, vendor, model, physical serial number, logical serial number, SAS Address, firmware level, control path status
 |
NOTE: The library configuration report lists the native device identifier as reported by the tape drive. HP tape drives always report SCSI as the native device identifier, even if they are Fibre Channel or SAS. For example, if you have HP L TO-4 Fibre Channel or SAS drives, they will be listed in the report as HP LTO-4 SCSI drives.

- I/O blade information — Blade number, blade ID, location coordinates, serial number, WWNN, firmware version, and control LUN
- Partition information:
- Library information — Number of partitions, number of cleaning slots, number of unassigned slots, number of import/export (I/E) slots, I/E manual assignment setting,
- Partition details — Partition name, number of slots, number of tape drives, and number of cartridges
