Working With
Verification Tests
A collection of verification tests are available to assist you or a customer
service engineer (CSE) in determining whether the library is properly
installed, configured, and operational. Running the tests is an important
part of ensuring that the system is working correctly.
Note: Because resolving an issue often involves complex technical
procedures, such as removing and replacing FRUs, and because
verification tests often require preparation and trained
interpretation of results, it is recommended that a CSE perform
the tests.
There are four types of verification test that help diagnose problems
with the library:
• Install Test on page 623
• Smaller library configuration requires about 1 hour and the larger
configurations require as long as 6 hours to run the Install Test.
Partial Test on page 623
• FRU Test on page 623
• Custom Test on page 624
These verification tests provide the following:
• Fully automated tests
• Tests to determine problems with installation
• Detailed problem analysis
• Full system tests or individual field replaceable unit (FRU) tests
• Logs of installation and configuration tests
• Graphical reports showing passed and failed results
• No affect to integrity of data
To perform these tests, the accessor assembly must be ready and
functional, and the library must be powered on. In addition, the library
must be in an offline state, and at least one scratch tape must be
inserted in the I/E station.
