Replacing the library

The entire library, including the drive, is a Customer Replaceable Unit (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 that is saved in the cookie, the Web User Interface checks the serial number of the new library
against the serial number that is 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 with the Web User Interface.
To log into the Web User Interface:
For code level below 0109-0000.fmg, use the user name service. Contact IBM Technical Support for the service password.
In the US: 1-800-IBM-SERV (1-800-426-7378)
All other countries and regions: http://www.ibm.com/planetwide/.
For code levels of 0109-0000.fmg or above, log in as admin or with the service role that the administrator previously set up.
