The SCB contains one LED, in addition to two LEDs on each Ethernet
port (for a total of 5 LEDs). For more information, see
System Control
Board LEDs on page 322.
For information on removing and replacing the SCB, see Removing and
Replacing the System Control Board on page 279.
Tape Drives Every library configuration must contain at least one tape drive.
See Appendix A, Specifications for a list of tape drives and media
supported by the Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 libraries.
The library supports mixing different tape drive types within the library
and within partitions. For information on how to do this, see
Working
With Partitions on page 51.
Tape drives are installed into tape drive slots in the rear of the library. If a
tape drive slot is empty, a filler plate must cover the empty slot (see
Figure 5 on page 11).
Caution: Filler plates are required to maintain proper library cooling.
Do not run the library with uncovered slots.
SAS tape drives have one status LED. Fibre Channel tape drives contain a
status and a link LED. For more information on tape drive LEDs, see
Tap e
Drive/Sled LEDs on page 323.
All tape drives contain only one cable connector.
For information on removing and replacing tape drives, see Removing
and Replacing a Tape Drive on page 286.
Installed Tape Drive Location Coordinates
Installed tape drives have a two-digit location coordinate. These are the
coordinates shown in the library configuration report. The first digit is
always zero. The second digit indicates the location of the tape drive
relative to the other tape drives. The bottommost tape drive has
location coordinates [0,1], the next-to-bottom has location coordinates
[0,2], and so on.
