Running a cleaning cartridge
You can manage the cleaning of the installed tape drives automatically by enabling
Auto Clean mode or manually by selecting the Clean Drive menu option from the
Maintenance submenu on the front panel display.
Note: It is good practice to run a cleaning cartridge using the Auto Clean Mode.
Automatically running a cleaning cartridge
You can configure the library to automatically run the cleaning cartridge. If a tape
drive needs cleaning, it sends a message to the library. This activates an automatic
cleaning cycle (if the cleaning cartridge slot has been reserved and Auto Clean
mode has been selected from the Options menu).
To automatically run a cleaning cartridge using Auto Clean mode, reserve a
cleaning cartridge slot and enable the Auto Clean mode.
