====== Zones ======

A Zone is a specific location where Volumes can be Slotted. Most commonly Zones are shelving units, cabinets, or high-density storage drawers.

Zones can be set using the [[master:admin_zone|Zone Administration]] utility in the Administration Menu.

===== Associating a Zone with a Repository =====

Once Zones are set in [[master:admin_zone|Zone Administration]], they must be added to the appropriate [[object:repository|Repository]]. This can be done under the ''Zones Tab'' in the [[master:repository|Repository Properties Window]].
