92 Library Installation and CRU Replacement
8 Import tape cartridges into the correct partitions as needed.
9 Save the library configuration (see Saving the Configuration
on page 13).
10 If the host application inventories the location of each tape cartridge in the library, open the host
application and reinventory to sync its logical inventory with the physical inventory of the library. Due to
the way the library logically addresses its tape drives and slots internally (see Understanding Logical
Element Addressing on page 543), replacing a control module may change the element addresses, and
this can affect proper communication to a controlling host. Because of this, you must refresh the
configuration of any backup application that manages the library to reflect the adjusted positions. In
addition, you may need to reboot the host server(s) or rescan the bus to detect the changes.
Replacing a 9U Expansion Module
These instructions explain how to remove and replace a 9U Expansion Module. You may need to replace
the 9U Expansion Module if its chassis is severely damaged.
A library can use up to four 9U expansion modules, to a maximum height of 41U.
There are some configuration settings to take into account when removing and replacing a 9U Expansion
Module.
• COD licenses remain the same. After the 9U Expansion Module is removed, there may be more
slots licensed than are available. Only the available slots appear on the License screen.
• All resources in the removed module(s) are removed. A partition with all resources in the removed
module(s) will be present with no slots or drives. This partition can only be deleted.
The maximum number of 9U Expansion Modules supported in a library
depends on the level of firmware the library is running. See the library Users
Guide for more information.
ALL LIBRARIES TALLER THAN 14U MUST BE INSTALLED IN A RACK
HAVING A MAIN PROTECTIVE EARTHING (GROUNDING) TERMINAL,
AND POWER MUST BE SUPPLIED VIA AN INDUSTRIAL PLUG AND
SOCKET-OUTLET AND/OR AN APPLIANCE COUPLER COMPLYING
WITH IEC 60309 (OR AN EQUIVALENT NATIONAL STANDARD) AND
HAVING A PROTECTIVE EARTH (GROUND) CONDUCTOR WITH A
CROSS SECTIONAL AREA OF AT LEAST 1.5 MM
2
(14 AWG).
TO ENSURE PROPER AIRFLOW AND ACCESS SPACE, ALLOW 60 CM
(24 INCHES) IN THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE LIBRARY.
WITHOUT TAPE DRIVES, TAPE CARTRIDGES, OR POWER
SUPPLIES, A 5U LIBRARY CONTROL MODULE WEIGHS
APPROXIMATELY 60 LBS (27.2 KG). A 9U EXPANSION MODULE,
WITHOUT TAPE DRIVES, TAPE CARTRIDGES, OR POWER
SUPPLIES, EXCEEDS 65 LBS (29.5 KG).
TO AVOID SERIOUS INJURY, AT LEAST TWO PEOPLE ARE
REQUIRED TO SAFELY LIFT THE MODULES INTO POSITION.
