Moving the library from a rack to a desktop
This procedure is used to relocate a library that is mounted in a rack with the rack mount kit to a desktop with the deskside kit.
Removing library from a rack
1. Take the library offline.
Note: If the library is processing queued requests, wait for the library to finish the current library task.
2. From the Web User Interface, select Configure Library > Save/Restore > Save to save the current library configuration to a file for easy restoration.
3. After your configuration is saved, log out of the Web User Interface and close the Internet browser.
4. From the Operator Panel, select Unlock Magazine, and press Enter to remove the cartridge magazine or from Web User Interface: Manage Library > Unlock
Magazine (if necessary).
Note: If the cartridge magazine fails to unlock in response to the Unlock Magazine command from the Operator Panel and Web User Interface, you can unlock the
magazine manually. See Unlocking the cartridge magazine manually.
5. From the Operator Panel, select Move to Ship Position, and press Enter. This command moves the accessor assembly to a safe position ready for moving the library.
Note: If the library is to be transported any distance, this move is necessary to park the accessor in the position where it can be secured by the accessor locking
screw.

7. On the rear panel of the library:
a. Power OFF the library by toggling the power supply switch to the OFF (O) position.
