Description
Pressing this button powers ON the library. Pressing and
holding this button for 4 seconds powers OFF the unit
(soft power down). No power switch or button is found on
the back panel of the library.
v Ready/Activity (Green LED) - It is illuminated any time
that the unit is powered ON and able to function. It
flashes whenever there is library or drive activity, or
when the library is powering up.
v Clean Drive (Amber LED) - It is illuminated when the
drive must be cleaned. The LED is turned OFF after the
drive is cleaned successfully.
v Attention (Amber LED) - It is illuminated when there is
a failure that indicates a piece of media is bad, marginal,
or invalid. It is cleared when all invalid cartridges are
exported from the library. The amber LED might also be
lit because a power supply or a power supply fan is
failing, or a drive sled is defective, missing, or replaced
by a different drive type.
v Error (Amber LED) - It is illuminated when there is an
unrecoverable library or drive failure. A message is
displayed at the same time on the Operator Control
Panel display.
v The 2U library contains two cartridge magazines.
– The left magazine can hold up to 12 cartridges (or 11
data cartridges and the elective 1-slot I/O station.)
– The right magazine can hold up to 12 cartridges.
v The 4U library contains four cartridge magazines.
– The upper left magazine can hold up to 12 cartridges.
– The lower left magazine can hold up to 12 cartridges
(or 9 data cartridges and the elective 3-slot I/O
station.)
– The upper right magazine can hold up to 12
cartridges.
– The lower right magazine can hold up to 12
cartridges.
These vents draw cooler air into the library enclosure and
allow warm air to escape, which helps keep the library at a
normal operating temperature.
v UP (+) - The upper left button is used to scroll upward
through menu items.
v DOWN (-) - The lower left button is used to scroll
downward through menu items.
v CANCEL (X) - The upper right button is used to cancel
a user action and return to the previous menu screen.
v SELECT - The lower right button is used to display a
submenu or force an accessor action.
The machine type, model number, and serial number of
the library are on this label. This serial number is the
number that links the library to your warranty.
