Replacing the Chassis

14 Turn ON the library by pressing the power button on the front
panel.
15 Wait for the library to initialize. This can take up to 5 to 17 minutes,
depending on library size.
16 You will notice the library has a new diagnostic ticket (DT042)
stating the library’s vital product data (VPD) has changed.
17 Since the VPD change is caused by the intentional library chassis
replacement, follow the Diagnostic Ticket resolution steps to
reconfigure the host application accordingly.
18 If you had license keys installed on the old library, install the new
license keys. From the operator panel, select Setup > License
Installation; or from the Web client, select Setup > License. For
further directions, see
Applying a License Key on page 71.
19 Run the Installation and Verification Test (IVT) to ensure the Y-tray,
tape drives, and magazines are all functioning properly. From the
operator panel, select Tools > IVT and follow the instructions on
the screen. The IVT takes about 30 minutes.
20 Save the library configuration (from the Web client, select Tools >
Save/Restore Configuration and save the configuration to a known
location).
21 Wrap the removed chassis in the antistatic wrapping that contained
the replacement chassis. Package the removed chassis using the
packaging that contained the replacement chassis. Use the enclosed
RMA information to send the chassis back to Quantum.
22 If your library is running SKM, you must you run a special script on
the SKM server after you replace the chassis. The script will correct
the library serial number associations in the key server database and
allow you to export used SKM encryption keys via the Web client
correctly. For instructions, refer to the chapter titled “Updating the
SKM Keystore After Replacing a Library Control Module” in the
Scalar Key Manager 2.0 User’s Guide
