The following provides release information for Oracle's StorageTek SL3000 library
firmware version FRS_4.51.

What's New in this Release

Library firmware version FRS_4.51 includes the following enhancements:
The library now supports M8 cartridges for LTO8 drives. This firmware
■
implements setting the preferred density of an L7 cartridge to 6TB and an M8
cartridge to 9TB when loaded into an IBM LTO8 drive (requires ADI mode).
SLC now correctly identifies the new drive tray card with FPGA version greater
■
than 128 as LOD2 instead of LOD.

Fixes

Corrected a problem with finding an empty system cell after a drive clean.
■
Corrected the CAP mode when the CAP is unlocked.
■
The library now reports a failure when setting an alternative default IP address or
■
gateway using drive autoconfigIP if the first two octets are the same as those of the
library. This prevents address conflicts.
Corrected the AEM CAP address range reporting through the MIB.
■
The drive lastCleanDate is now supplied to SLC.
■
Corrected a problem with the CAP self-test not releasing a SCSI CAP reservation.
■
Corrected a problem power cycling the library with the safety door engaged
■
causing excessive robot initializers.
