The library automatically performs an audit whenever it powers up or whenever you
reinsert magazines.
Normally, host applications request audits. However, you can audit the library from
the remote interface, but you should avoid this, if possible, as it interrupts host
operations.
To manually initiate an audit:
From the remote interface, select Library in the left menu.
1.
From the Library drop-down menu
2.
Optionally, select Set the Library back Online ...
3.
To take the library offline, start the audit, and close the dialog, press OK.
4.
If you did not check the Set the Library back Online ... checkbox, remember to
5.
bring the library back online once you are ready.
Monitoring an Audit in Progress
The duration of an audit depends on the size of the library. For example, a 30-slot
library can take about 7 minutes to audit.
You can track the progress of the audit on the Library screen of the remote interface.
Grayed-out cartridge icons represent unaudited slots. As the audit progresses, audited
slots return to their normal appearance. Hovering over a slot shows the current
cartridge label information (see
information).
