4.2.4 Magazines
Cartridges are stored in the slots of the magazines. Up to 12 cartridges can be stored in
each magazine. Magazines may be removed and inserted individually.
The tape library has two removable magazines with an installation height of two height
units. Access to the magazines can be protected by a password. For safety reasons, the
robotic motion is stopped when a magazine is removed.
The magazines can be released (“unlocked”) using the Operator Control Panel (OCP) or
the Remote Management Unit (RMU). If the process has failed or the library no longer has
power, a manual emergency release is available. See section “Removing stuck tapes from
slots” on page 57.
4.2.4.1 Removing and replacing a magazine using the OCP
v CAUTION!
The magazine must only be removed with the manual emergency release in an
emergency. Failure to follow normal procedure can cause data loss and equipment
damage.
The magazines should be released (“unlocked”) using the Operator Control Panel
(OCP) or the Remote Management Unit (RMU). Only if this process fails, or if the
magazine needs to be removed when the power to the tape library is off, you can
release the magazines with the manual emergency release.
You can access the left and right magazines using the Operator Control Panel (OCP). You
require the system administrator password to do this.
Ê On the OCP select the “Unlock Left Magazine” or “Unlock Right Magazine” function in
the menu Commands > Unlock Magazines.
Ê Enter the administrative password if requested.
Ê The display will read “Left Magazine Unlocked”, or “Right Magazine Unlocked”.
Ê Pull the released magazine out of the library.
The screen will now display “Insert Left Magazine”, or “Insert Right Magazine”. The library
cannot perform any other operation until the magazine is replaced. After exchanging tapes
in a magazine, slide the magazine completely into the library. The magazine will lock into
place once it is correctly installed and the library will inventory the magazine.
