Adding Power Supplies and Tape Drives
The tape drives and power supplies are located at the back of the library (see
Figure 6–1). Each module in the library has space for two tape drives and two power
supplies. You can add tape drives and power supplies as your needs grow.
The power supply and tape drive can be added while the library is powered-on.
However, you must restart the library for it to recognize and account for the tape drive
if the library is not set to address all drive slots.
The instructions in this chapter have you remove the power supply or drive filler and
immediately insert the new power supply or tape drive in the open slot.

Power Supply
Two actions are involved to add a power supply (see Figure 6–2) to a library module:
1) removal of the power supply filler and 2) installation of the power supply. No tools
are required to perform these tasks.
Warning: Do not operate the library with open tape drive or
power supply slots.
