Installation Check List - Qualstar XLS Series Site Planning Manual

This chapter provides a check list of the components, options, and accessories needed to
install an XLS tape library. For more information, refer to the XLS Library Installation
Manual.
Important:
After the XLS order is placed, Qualstar builds the library to the requested specifications
and preinstalls the drive bays, cartridge slots, I/O ports, Host Bus Adapters (HBAs), and
the power supplies. The equipment rack (if ordered), the tape drive assemblies, and the
cartridges must be installed at the customer's site.
