T094 - Drive Bay Open
Description GUI Description: A library drive bay in the rear of the library is open.
Explanation: At boot time or run time. the library detects that at least one of
the unoccupied drive bays does not have a cover on it. For safety reasons, if a
drive bay is not occupied by a drive and does not have a cover plate installed,
the robot is slowed to half speed to minimize the risk of someone putting their
hand inside the library and having the robot run into it at full speed. Library
operations will take twice as long in this state. Since users normally remove
the drive bay covers to insert or move drives, this library will wait between 30
seconds and 10 minutes after detecting this condition to post the RAS ticket.
The library cannot display the location of the open drive bay.
Detection Scenarios • Missing drive cover plate.
• Drive cover is loose or ajar somehow and is not electrically connected.
Root Causes • User removed the drive bay cover plate and forgot to put it back.
• Cover plate was not put on securely, and the electrical connection is not
solid.
• The cover plate is damaged in such a way that the electrical connection
cannot be made.
• Drive pulled back.
