140 Library Installation and CRU Replacement
Preparing the Library for Moving or Shipping
Before you move or ship your library, follow these steps:
1 Save the library configuration (see Saving the Configuration on page 13).
2 Shut down the library using the local operator panel (
Operations > System Shutdown). This lowers the
robot to the “shipping” position on the floor of the library.
3 Follow instructions on the operator panel screen.
4 Turn off library power by pressing the power button on the front panel.
5 Turn off the power to each power supply on the back of the library.
6 Install the orange robot restraint assembly that secures the robot to the floor of the library. The robot
restraint assembly was part of the packaging that originally came with the library.
7 Remove all cords and cables from the rear of the library.
8 Remove all tape cartridges from the library.
9 Remove the tape drives from the library to decrease the weight when lifting the modules.
10 Remove one module at a time from the rack. Retain the rack-mounting hardware and shelves for use
in the new location.
11 Place the module in the bottom of the shipping carton.
12 Reinstall the tape drives in the module.
13 Complete the packing. For further details, see the Unpacking Instructions.
When moving the library: You must install the orange robot restraint
assembly to protect the robot against damage. It is recommended
that you use the original shipping carton and packaging materials to
further protect your library.
When shipping the library: Use the shipping carton, packaging
materials, and the orange robot restraint assembly that originally
came with the library. This will help protect your library against
damage. If the original packaging is not available, contact Quantum
for a Repackaging Kit and follow the enclosed instructions.
