2. Use Service Library > Firmware Update and click Browse to locate the library firmware file with
extension ".fmg" (for example, TS2900_0002.0000.fmg) or the LTO SAS drive firmware file with
extension".ro" (for example, 85F0L3AH.ro) that you downloaded from the IBM web site, then click
Update. The Web User Interface indicates that the operation is complete. This means that the
firmware file is successfully moved from the host computer to the library.
3. Wait for the library to reboot before normal library operations resume. It can take several minutes
before the library reboots.
4. Verify the firmware update by viewing the System Summary on the Web User Interface.
Important: After the update process starts, you must wait until the library reboots. Do not attempt to
interrupt the process in any way, or the upgrade will not be successful.
Note: The IBM Tape Diagnostic tool (ITDT) is a tool that is provided by IBM that offers multiple
functional capabilities, including updating drive and library firmware. It is available for most major
platforms and requires no special device drivers. In addition to the executable file, a readme file describes
the features and capabilities of the ITDT tool, and gives detailed information about how to use it. See
“The IBM Tape Diagnostic tool (ITDT)” on page 139.
