Locating a Drive
2
When a drive fails, a ticket is generated by the library that will identify the
malfunctioning drive using a coordinate system. This section will explain the
basics of locating a drive using the coordinate system so when you are replacing
the drive, you will be able to identify the correct drive. Removing a drive
incorrectly can impact data on your library.
The drive coordinate system has six (6) numbers, for example: 1, 2, 1, 7, 1, 1.
The first number identifies the aisle. The Scalar i6000 is a single aisle library only
so this number is always 1.
The second number identifies the module. The module number can be from 1-
16. This applies to both single- and dual-robot libraries. The left parking module
(module 0) is only for dual-robot libraries and cannot contain drives. A high-
density expansion module (HDEM) also cannot contain drives.
