E-mailing the Configuration Record

Administrators can use the Tools - E-mail Configuration Record screen on the Web client to e-mail the library
configuration record.
Do not enter more than one e-mail address in the E-mail Address text box on the Tools - E-mail Configuration Record
screen. If you need to send the configuration record to multiple e-mail addresses, repeat the procedure for each e-mail
address.
Before you can e-mail the configuration record, the library e-mail account must be configured. For information on setting up

Saving and Restoring the Library Configuration

The library has many configurable items, such as tape drive IDs, partitions, user accounts, Import/Export (I/E) stations, and
cleaning slots. In the event of a hardware failure or firmware upgrade, the save and restore operations can be used to restore
the library's configurable items to a previous state.
Note:
You cannot restore a saved configuration after removing or replacing a 5U Library Control Module or 9U Library
Expansion Module. After removing and/or replacing the module, save the library configuration for future use.
Note:
The Saving and Restoring operations should not be performed concurrently by multiple administrators logged in
from different locations. You can access the screens, but you cannot apply changes while another administrator is
performing the same operation.

Saving the Library Configuration

Caution:
Always save the library configuration after modifying a configurable item and before upgrading firmware.
This allows you to restore the most current settings if necessary.
This operation saves your current library configuration and library firmware. Save your library configuration when it is in a
known working state. In the event of a hardware failure, the saved configuration can be used to restore the configuration
after hardware repairs are made. Before initiating a firmware upgrade, you should save the library configuration. You then
have the option to restore the configuration after either a successful or an unsuccessful upgrade.
The Save/Restore Configuration operation is available only on the Web client. The path to open the appropriate screen is:
From the Web client, select Tools > Save/Restore Configuration.
