4.2.4 Magazines
Cartridges are stored in the slots of the magazines. Up to 12 cartridges can be stored in each magazine. Magazines
may be removed and inserted individually.
The tape library has two removable magazines with an installation height of two height units. Access to the
magazines can be protected by a password. For safety reasons, the robotic motion is stopped when a magazine is
removed.
The magazines can be released ("unlocked") using the Operator Control Panel (OCP) or the Remote Management
Unit (RMU). If the process has failed or the library no longer has power, a manual emergency release is available.
