Configuring the Slave Libraries
To configure the remaining libraries as slaves:
1. Using the GUI touch screen on a standalone library in a rack enclosure, touch the Menu button
from the Status screen (see Figure 25 on page 36).
2. Touch the Library button from the Edit Options area of the GUI (see Figure 26 on page 36).
NOTE: The library status LED indicator flashes green to indicate that a change is being made on
the GUI that interrupts the current library operation.
3. Enter the appropriate Service password and then touch the Validate button. Refer to the HP
StorageWorks MSL6000 Series Tape Library User Guide for additional information on setting
passwords.
4. Touch the down arrow (
T) until the Module Configuration menu option appears on the
bottom of the display (see Figure 27 on page 37).
NOTE: You can move to the next sequential Library options screen by touching the down arrow
(
T). To return to the previous Library options screen, touch the up arrow (S) or Back button to
return to the Menu screen.
5. Touch the button next to the Module Configuration menu option and then touch the Slave
button (see Figure 28 on page 38).
6. Touch the Save button to confirm your request.
7. Touch OK to save the new option. Afterwards, the library will automatically reboot and be
configured for the new option (see Figure 29 on page 38).
NOTE: After the library reboots, the library status LED indicator lights solid green indicating that
the library is now fully operational.
8. Repeat this procedure to configure the remaining libraries as slaves.
The multi-unit library configuration is now ready to verify firmware.
Verifying the Configuration
To verify the configuration, run the cartridge cycle diagnostic:
1. Load several cartridges into the master unit.
2. Touch Menu on the master GUI Status Screen.
3. Touch Diagnostics (in the Utilities area).
4. Enter the appropriate password, if necessary, and validate.
