Description
Allows the following items to be configured:
• Change Password—The library ships with a null password. Passwords must be
set to exactly eight characters, consisting of the numbers 0 through 9 and the
period character. If you forget your password, contact HP support. HP support
can generate a temporary password that will allow you to access the library.
• Configure Load Ports—This GUI shows the number of installed load ports and
enables you to toggle between using each as a load port or for tape slots.
Configure it as a Load Port to move tapes in and out of the library. Configure as
Slots to increase the number of storage slots in the library. Changing a load port
configuration causes a library reboot.
• Change Network Settings—This configures the network settings for the Interface
Manager card, which can be automatically set with DHCP (the default), or
manually with a static IP address. Use the Address Config: button to toggle
between these two options. If you are manually setting the network addresses,
select each address element separately to set the network configuration.
• Configure Barcode Reporting Formats—This defines how bar codes are
displayed on the OCP and sent to the host. Bar code reporting can be
configured as 6 to 8 characters and left or right aligned. If 6 characters with left
alignment is chosen, any characters after the six are truncated. With 6
characters and right alignment, only the last six characters are shown with the
beginning characters truncated.
• Configure Reserve Slots—Up to nine slots can be reserved for special purposes,
such as cleaning tapes. The default is none. Select the number you want to
reserve and select Save.
• Configure Inventory Mode—This allows you to require bar codes on tape
cartridges, or to make them optional. Requiring bar codes significantly improves
inventory time.
Use the up and down arrows to adjust the screen contrast. The screen refreshes
each time an arrow is pressed. Select the OK button when finished.
