Problem Solution
Power supply
No display messages
appear
– Make sure the power is connected.
– Make sure the power switch is on.
– Power cycle the library.
– Contact Customer Support.
Tape movement
Tape stuck in drive – Detach the tape library while BS2000 is operating
(/DETACH-DEVICE). This eliminates the BS2000 software as a
problem source.
– Power cycle the library, allow it to complete initialization, which in
rare cases can take as long as 10 minutes, and then retry
unloading the tape using the library operator control panel.
– Allow the tape drive to complete all operations. This may take as
long as 10 minutes if you reset or cycle power on the library while
the cartridge is positioned at the physical end of the media.
– Contact Customer Support.
Tape stuck in storage slot See section “Removing stuck tapes from slots” on page 56.

degaussed. Do not degauss Ultrium cartridges.
