IBM TS3310

Replacement of either the LCB or the CF requires the removal of the LCB/CF
Assembly from the library.
Important: Before removing the LCB/CF Assembly from the library, ensure that
you have performed “Saving/Restoring System Configuration” on page 7-12 and
that the saved file is available. If the CF card is replaced, you will need this file to
reconfigure the library.
Following is a partial list of the configuration items that are saved:
v Current library firmware
v Network settings:
– IP Address
– Subnet Mask & Gateway addresses
v Feature Code licenses keys
v Logical library configuration
v Cartridge slot assignments
v Cleaning slot configuration
v I/O Station configuration
v Drive IDs:
– SCSI ID
– Fibre Loop ID
– SAS ID
v Encryption method selections
v Administrator and user account information

card is replaced, you will need the following information to reconfigure
the libary:
v IP address
v Subnet mask address
v Gateway address
v Library firmware level
v License keys, if applicable
See “Saving/Restoring System Configuration” on page 7-12. Also, see
Appendix E: "Library Configuration Form" in the TS3310 Setup and
Operator Guide.
Important: When handling the LCB, you must wear an ESD anti-static wrist
strap, or touch the library frame to discharge any static electricity in
your body. Do not handle the LCB without taking appropriate ESD
precautions.
1. Perform “Preparing a Library or Library Module for Repairs” on page 8-4.
2. On the LCB (Figure 8-49 on page 8-47), disconnect the Ethernet cable (2 in
Figure 8-49 on page 8-47) by pinching the tab to disengage the cable, and then
pull the connector out of the LCB.
