Edit online
This Procedure is to be performed by IBM® service personnel only. The purpose of this section is to assist you in determining the condition of the cartridge or the
magnetic tape and to direct you to the procedure you must follow to remove the cartridge.
Attention
The best solution for recovering data on a damaged cartridge is to send it to IBM for professional data recovery.
Before this procedure is used, you must exhaust all other means of removing the tape cartridge from the drive. Use this procedure only if you cannot remove the
tape cartridge with any other means.
