Moving the library from a desktop to a rack
This procedure is used to relocate a library that is mounted on the desktop with the deskside kit to a rack
with the rack mount kit.
Removing library from a desktop
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).

the Operator Panel and Web User Interface, you can unlock the magazine manually. See “Unlocking
the cartridge magazine manually” on page 141.
5. From the Operator Panel, select Move to Ship Position, and press Enter. This command moves the
