Description: Tape Physical Drive Placement.

The following values are defined:

internal(2) The tape drive is located in an internal Proliant system chassis.

external(3) The tape drive is located in an external Proliant storage system.

What is cpqTapePhyDrvPlacement?

This enumerated value indicates whether a tape drive sits inside the main system chassis (internal) or in an external ProLiant storage enclosure (external), or other if undetermined. It tells a technician where to physically go to service a specific tape unit. For example, a tape drive reporting placement external means the technician should check the attached storage shelf rather than open the server itself.
