for commands from the backup software or the OCP to load and unload tapes.
◦ Sequential — the device will automatically unload the tape in the drive when the host
software sends an unload command to the drive and then automatically load the tape
from the next highest sequentially numbered full slot.
◦ Loop — in Loop mode, the autoloader will load the tape from the lowest numbered full
slot after the tape from the highest numbered full slot is unloaded. If Loop is not listed, the
autoloader will stop automatically loading and unloading tapes after the tape from the
last full slot is unloaded.
