Releasing and replacing the magazines
Use the Operations: Magazine page to release the left, right, or both magazines. When you click
Release, the device will unlock the magazine and display Left Magazine Unlocked or Right Magazine
Unlocked on the OCP screen. Once the magazines are unlocked, you can remove any of the magazines
on that side. If you do not remove the magazine within a few seconds, the device will lock it. When
you replace the magazine, the device will inventory the magazine's tape cartridges.

this manual process should only be used if the magazine cannot be released using the OCP or RMI.

any remote operations that take it offline.
Performing general diagnostics
Use the Support: General Diagnostic page to run general tests to verify the usability and reliability of
