TIP: If the end of the spooling cable drops into
the module, unlock the robotic assembly,
remove it from the module, return the end of
the spooling cable to its cradle, return the
robotic assembly to its previous position in the
module, relock the robotic assembly, and
repeat the procedure.
11. Unlock the robotic assembly, allow it to move
approximately 25mm into the base module and then
lock the robotic assembly.
Completing the robotic assembly and
spooling mechanism installation
Procedure
1. Replace the top cover on the base module if you
removed one.
2. From the front of the rack and while supporting the
bottom of the module in areas supported by the rack
shelves, set the back of the base module on the front
of the rack shelves. Push the base module into the
rack until the front of the module contacts the front
rack posts.
3. If there are adjacent modules:
a. Set the alignment mechanisms to the lock
position. If you encounter resistance, adjust the
upper module so the pin in the alignment
mechanism moves into the hole in the lower
module.
b. Reconnect the expansion interconnect cables.
4. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, tighten the captive
fasteners on the front of the base module and its
adjacent modules until they are finger tight. Do not
over tighten.
5. Replace the magazines.
6. Reconnect the Ethernet, SAS, and Fibre Channel
cables to the base module.
7. Insert any USB devices removed during this
procedure.
8. Reconnect the AC power cables to the base module.
9. Inspect the library top and bottom covers.
• Verify that the top and bottom covers are installed.
The library will only operate with both the top and
bottom covers installed.
• Verify that nothing is sitting on the library top
cover.
Weight on the library top cover could cause errors
in the library operation.
• Verify that nothing is in contact with the bottom
library cover plate.
Contact with the bottom cover could cause errors
in the library operation.
Powering on the library
Procedure
1. Power on the library by pressing the power button on
the base module just under the OCP. The green light
and OCP will illuminate.
When the library is powered on, it performs the
following procedures:
• Inventory the tape cartridges in the magazines
• Check the firmware version on all modules
• Configure the tape drives
