If the library does not see all of the modules, tape drives, and power supplies, check that the cords
and cables are properly inserted.
If using the MSL Encryption Kit, you might need to enter the token password.

CAUTION:
Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Keep parts in electrostatic containers until
needed. Ensure that you are properly grounded when touching static sensitive components.
WARNING:
Each library module weighs 20 kg (44 lb) without media or tape drives and at least 35 kg (77 lb) with
media (40 cartridges) and three tape drives. When moving the library, to reduce the risk of personal
injury or damage to the device:
•
Observe local health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material handling.
•
Remove all tapes to reduce the overall weight of the device and to prevent cartridges from falling
into the robotic path and damaging the library. Keep the cartridges organized so they can be
returned to the same locations.
•
Obtain adequate assistance to lift and stabilize the device during installation or removal.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to equipment:
•
Extend the leveling jacks to the floor.
•
Ensure that the full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
•
Install the rack stabilizer kit on the rack.
•
Extend only one rack component at a time. Racks might become unstable if more than one
component is extended.
IMPORTANT:
When the library is powered off using the front power button, the robot automatically parks and locks
into the base module behind the OCP.
After powering off the library and before extending the module from the rack, look through the
expansion module windows to locate the robotic assembly. Verify that it is behind the OCP, with
approximately three rows of tape cartridges visible below the robot.
Depending on expansion module placement, you might need to remove a magazine from the base
module to determine the robot position.
If you do not see the robotic assembly completely in the base module, see the instructions for
returning the robotic assembly to the base module in the troubleshooting chapter.
