Need help setting up cleaning.
 
I am running TSM 4.1.1 on Windows NT
I have a Qualstar 46120 library with four AIT-2 drives.
I am trying to set up a cleaning schedule and need some help.
 
First, what is the best way to checkin the cleaner tape?  And how many cleanings do 
you tell TSM that your Cleaner tape can do (assuming it's an AIT-2 drive)?
 
I think the syntax should look something like this, but I am unsure as to what I 
should be setting the cleanings parameter to:
checkin libvolume autolib1 cleanv status=cleaner cleanings=10 checklabel=no
 
Second. The Qualstar 46120 library has specific dedicated slots for cleaner 
cartridges.  How would I take advantage of these slots so not to use up my data 
cartridge slots?
 
And last but not least.  When updating my drives what value should I user for the 
cleaning frequency so TSM will automatically clean the drives?  I don't know the 
recommended gigabytes for AIT-2 drives.
 
Your help is greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks
