-====== Virtual Slot ====== 
  
-The **Virtual Slot** allocation is a number of the slot based on sequential numbering of all slots from the zones allocated to a repository. 
- 
-For this example we will use three LTO storage racks, each with a capacity of 100 tapes over 10 shelves. 
- 
-If these three racks are completely assigned to one repository, there will be 300 virtual slots available for volume allocation.   
-  * Slot 1 would be the first slot in storage rack 1 
-  * Slot 100 would be the last slot in storage rack 1 
-  * Slot 101 would be the first slot in storage rack 2 
-  * Slot 201 would be the first slot in storage rack 3 
-  * Slot 300 would be the last slot in storage rack 3 
- 
-If the first 50 slots in storage rack 1 were assigned to customer AAAA, and the rest of the racking, 250 slots, assigned to customer BBBB. 
-For Customer AAAA 
-  * Slot 1 would be the first slot in storage rack 1 
-  * Slot 50 would be the 50th slot in storage rack 1 
-For Customer BBBB 
-  * Slot 1 would be the 51st slot in storage rack 1 
-  * Slot 50 would be the 100th slot in storage rack 1 
-  * Slot 51 would be the 1st slot in storage rack 2 
-  * Slot 151 would be the 1st slot in storage rack 3 
-  * Slot 250 would be the 100th slot in storage rack 3
