For each installed drive:
1. Loosen the two thumb screws ( 2 in Figure 3-5) that hold the drive sled in
place by turning them counterclockwise.
2. To remove the drive sled, grasp the handle ( 5 in Figure 3-5) and slowly pull
it toward you, while supporting the drive sled from underneath.
Each control module is shipped with both a top and a bottom cover. In order to
properly install a library, you may need to move one or both covers from the
control module to expansion modules. When finished, the top cover should be on
the top module of the library, and the bottom cover should be on the bottom
module of the library.
1. Ensure that the drive sleds and power supplies have been removed from the
modules to be installed. See "Reducing Weight" on page 3-5.
2. Refer to Figure 3-13 on page 3-15 and determine which library module will be
installed on the bottom.
3. If you choose a configuration that has a 9U EM on the bottom, transfer the
bottom cover from the 5U control module to the 9U module that will be on the
bottom. Refer to "Transferring the Bottom Cover from the Control Module to
an Expansion Module" on page 3-8. If the control module is on the bottom of
your library, you will not need to move the bottom cover.
4. If you choose a configuration that has a 9U EM on the top of the library,
transfer the top cover from the 5U control module to the 9U module that will
