Applying An Rid Tag To A Library - IBM TS2900 Setup, Operator, And Service Manual

Applying an RID tag to a library

A RID (Repair Identification) tag maintains the original serial number record and WWN of the library to
ensure that your warranty coverage, if applicable, is not interrupted. The tag is important for customer
inventory accuracy. Follow the instructions on the RID tag precisely.
