Powering On the Library
1 Make sure that you wait 15 seconds after powering off the library
before you power it on.
2 On the power distribution unit(s), set the circuit breaker switch to the
up (I) position.
3 To turn on power to the library, press the Power button on the
indicator panel.
The library begins to boot up. Within five minutes, the LMC display
appears on the library’s touch screen. A library with only a few drives
usually will be fully powered on and ready for use within 10 minutes.
However, if a library is large with a high number of drives, it can take
more than an hour for the library to fully power on, complete its discovery
process, and become ready for use. During the power-on process, the
Robotics Enabled indicator flashes. When the library is fully up and ready
to receive commands, the Robotics Enabled indicator turns solid green.
Locking/Unlocking the I/E Station
The Scalar i2000 I/E stations have multiple open and close sensors. When
you are finished accessing the I/E station, make sure the station door is
fully closed.
There are two reasons the I/E station door locks:
• The library imports or exports a cartridge from the I/E station door.
While the library is attempting to import or export a tape from a
given I/E station slot, only the associated I/E station door is locked
in the closed position. All other I/E station doors remain accessible.
Waiting 15 seconds is important because the
power supply discharges for 10 seconds after you
power off the library. If you attempt to power on
the library too soon, the power supply will fault.
