Positioning The Library; Storing The Packaging Materials; Component Installation - HP E Series User Manual

Positioning the library

1. Stabilize the library by lowering the leveling feet:
a. Rotate each foot of the library until it makes contact with the floor.
b. Rotate each foot an additional 1/4 turn to begin raising the library.
c. Level the library using a carpenter's level.
2. Inspect the library for any damage that may have occurred during shipment.

Storing the packaging materials

The packaging materials removed from the EML can be used when moving the library to another
location. Store the library packaging materials:
1. Detach the ramp and place on top of the pallet.
2. Fold the shipping bag.
3. Place the shipping bag, cap, side posts, brackets, and other packaging materials on the pallet.
4. Fold the cardboard sides and place on top of the packaging materials on the pallet.
5. Secure the packaging materials to the pallet and store for future use.

Component installation

Verify that you have the following equipment and accessories available before beginning the installation
process. For a native Fibre Channel (FC) environment, you need the following:
• One or more Ultrium tape drives (these come preinstalled in one orderable EML configuration)
• One HP StorageWorks e2400-FC 2G interface controller for every four tape drives (comes
preinstalled in one configuration)
• Four FC drive cables and one Ethernet cable for each e2400-FC 2G interface controller
NOTE: Only use Ethernet cables provided with the library. If the library uses a LAN extension connector,
plug into it, and not directly to a card.
• One Interface Manager card (preinstalled in EML)
• One library robotics controller (preinstalled in EML)
• One FC cable for each interface controller connection to a host or switch (not included)
• One Ethernet cable for an Interface Manager card connection to the management station
• One Ethernet cable for an Interface Manager card connection to the library robotics controller
(preinstalled)
