Members
Element
Specifies the element of type CHANGER_ELEMENT to which this structure refers.
SrcElementAddress
Specifies the element of type CHANGER_ELEMENT from which the media currently in this element was most recently moved. This member is valid only if ELEMENT_STATUS_SVALID is also set in Flags. This value must be a zero-based offset from the device-unique value.
Flags
Indicates the status of the element, which can be one or more of the following values.
ELEMENT_STATUS_FULL
The element contains a piece of media. This flag is valid if ElementType in the Element member is ChangerDrive, ChangerSlot, or ChangerTransport. If ElementType is ChangerIEPort, this flag is valid only if CHANGER_REPORT_IEPORT_STATE is also set in Features0 of GET_CHANGER_PARAMETERS.
ELEMENT_STATUS_IMPEXP
The media in this element was placed there by an operator. This flag is valid only if ElementType in the Element member is ChangerIEPort.
ELEMENT_STATUS_EXCEPT
The element is in an abnormal state. Check the ExceptionCode member for more information.
ELEMENT_STATUS_ACCESS
The changer's transport element can access the piece of media in this element. The miniclass driver clears this flag to indicate that the media is not accessible for one of the following reasons: If ElementType in the Element member is ChangerSlot, the slot is not present in the changer (for example, the magazine containing the slot has been physically removed). If ElementType is ChangerDrive, the drive is broken or has been removed. If ElementType is ChangerIEPort, the IEport is extended.
ELEMENT_STATUS_EXENAB
The element supports export of media through the changer's IEport.
ELEMENT_STATUS_INENAB
The element supports import of media through the changer's IEport.
ELEMENT_STATUS_LUN_VALID
The device number in the Lun member is valid. This flag is valid only if ElementType in the Element member is ChangerDrive.
ELEMENT_STATUS_ID_VALID
The SCSI target ID in the TargetID member is valid. This flag is valid only if ElementType in the Element member is ChangerDrive.
ELEMENT_STATUS_NOT_BUS
The drive at the address indicated by Lun and TargetID is on a different SCSI bus than the changer itself.
ELEMENT_STATUS_PRODUCT_DATA
The serial number in the SerialNumber member is valid.
ELEMENT_STATUS_INVERT
The media in the element was flipped. This flag is valid only if the ELEMENT_STATUS_SVALID flag is also set.
ELEMENT_STATUS_SVALID
The SourceElement member and ELEMENT_STATUS_INVERT flag are both valid.
ELEMENT_STATUS_PVOLTAG
Primary volume information in the PrimaryVolumeID member is valid.
ELEMENT_STATUS_AVOLTAG
Alternate volume information in the AlternateVolumeID member is valid.
ExceptionCode
Indicates that the element is in an abnormal state. This member is valid only if ELEMENT_STATUS_EXCEPT is set in Flags. ExceptionCode can be set to one of the following values.
ERROR_LABEL_UNREADABLE
The changer's bar code reader could not read the bar code label on the piece of media in this element, because the media is missing, damaged, improperly positioned, or upside down.
ERROR_LABEL_QUESTIONABLE
The label might be invalid due to a unit attention condition.
ERROR_SLOT_NOT_PRESENT
The slot at this element address is currently not installed in the changer. A miniclass driver sets this code for each slot in a removable magazine to indicate that the magazine has been removed.
ERROR_DRIVE_NOT_INSTALLED
The drive at this element address is absent. If a changer can continue to operate without the drive, its miniclass driver sets ERROR_DRIVE_NOT_INSTALLED for the drive.
ERROR_TRAY_MALFUNCTION
The drive at this element address has a tray that must be extended to load or remove media, and the tray is not extending as required.
ERROR_UNHANDLED_ERROR
Unknown error condition.
TargetId
Specifies the SCSI target ID of the drive at this element address for a SCSI changer. This member is valid only if ElementType in the Element member is ChangerDrive and ELEMENT_STATUS_ID_VALID is set in Flags.
Lun
Specifies the SCSI device number of the drive at this element address. This member is valid only if ElementType in the Element member is ChangerDrive and ELEMENT_STATUS_LUN_VALID is set in Flags.
Reserved
Reserved for future use. The value of this member must be zero.
PrimaryVolumeID[MAX_VOLUME_ID_SIZE]
Specifies the primary volume identifier for the media. If the changer supports a bar code reader and the reader is installed (as indicated by CHANGER_BAR_CODE_SCANNER_INSTALLED in Features0 of GET_CHANGER_PARAMETERS), the miniclass driver must set PrimaryVolumeID to the bar code of the media. If the changer does not support a bar code reader, the miniclass driver should set PrimaryVolumeID to the value previously assigned to the media using the ChangerQueryVolumeTags routine with an ASSERT_PRIMARY or REPLACE_PRIMARY action. This member is valid only if ELEMENT_STATUS_PVOLTAG is also set in Flags. If the volume identifier is missing or unreadable, the miniclass driver should clear this flag and set the appropriate error status. This identifier must be no larger than MAX_VOLUME_ID_SIZE bytes.
AlternateVolumeID[MAX_VOLUME_ID_SIZE]
Specifies alternate volume identification for the media. This member is valid for two-sided media only, and pertains to the ID of the inverted side. It never represents a bar code. The miniclass driver must set AlternateVolumeID to the value previously assigned to the media using the ChangerQueryVolumeTags routine with an ASSERT_ALTERNATE or REPLACE_ALTERNATE action. The identifier must be no larger than MAX_VOLUME_ID_SIZE bytes and is valid only if ELEMENT_STATUS_AVOLTAG is also set in Flags.
VendorIdentification[VENDOR_ID_LENGTH]
Contains the vendor ID. This identifier must be no larger than VENDOR_ID_LENGTH bytes.
ProductIdentification[PRODUCT_ID_LENGTH]
Contains the product ID. This identifier must be no larger than PRODUCT_ID_LENGTH bytes.
SerialNumber[SERIAL_NUMBER_LENGTH]
Contains the serial number. This identifier must be no larger than SERIAL_NUMBER_LENGTH bytes.
Remarks
The ChangerGetElementStatus routine returns status information in this structure if vendor, product, or serial number information is needed. Otherwise, ChangerGetElementStatus returns status information in the CHANGER_ELEMENT_STATUS structure.
