Diagnostics Commands
idle and unavailable to host backup/restore applications.
The autoloader recognizes when the drive or autoloader is executing host
commands and will respond appropriately to prevent application
failures. A diagnostic command issued between host application
commands may not be recognized appropriately, resulting in a failed
application.
Because certain tests require you to manually insert a cartridge, you can
perform only some of the diagnostic tests using On-board Remote
Management (see
).

Note: On-board Remote Management allows you to request all
diagnostic tests, but any tests that require a cartridge to be
inserted will time-out unless someone manually inserts the
cartridge at the appropriate time.
When you enable the security function, the diagnostic tests are password

protected to ensure data integrity. To access any of the diagnostic tests,
you must first enter an
