Follow the steps in this chapter to install a new a new 5U or 14U library on a
desktop. For instructions on converting your rack-mounted 5U or 14U library to a
desktop unit or converting a 5U or 14U desktop library to a rack-mounted library,
see "Library Conversions" on page 12-26. For instructions on removing or
replacing a control module or expansion module, see "Removing/Replacing a
Control Module" on page 12-2 and "Removing/Replacing an Expansion Module"
on page 12-11.
Note: A desktop library can only support one expansion module. If you have two
or more expansion modules, you must install the library in a rack.
Important: Because of the weight of a multi-module library, it is strongly
recommended that you install it in the lowest position in a rack. Without
drive sleds and power supplies, a control module weighs approximately
18-32 kg (39.7-70.5 lbs)
50 lbs. Without drive sleds and power supplies, each 9U expansion
module weighs approximately 65 lbs.
1. Open and unpack all the boxes in your shipment.
2. Remove all external packaging materials from around the library module.
Note: Leave the library module on the lifting sling until it is ready to be
installed.
3. Verify the contents of your shipment.
