Replacing the Library

The entire library, including the drive, is a CRU. At CRU replacement, the serial
number of the new library must be changed to the serial number of the old library to
maintain IBM entitlement to service. If the static IP address of the new library
matches the static IP address saved in the cookie, the Web User Interface checks the
serial number of the new library against the serial number saved in the cookie. If the
new serial number is different from the saved serial number, the saved data in the
cookie can be used to change the serial number of the new library and configure the
new library. If the data inheritance fails or your network configuration uses DHCP,
the library serial number can be changed using the Web User Interface when logged
in as service.
