Setting Cleaning Cartridge Count
Setting Cleaning Cartridge Count
Drives might occasionally need to be cleaned to prevent read/write errors. The
drives are cleaned with a special cleaning cartridge. After a specified number of
uses, the cartridge must be replaced.
If your LSM was configured during installation to have the AUTO CLEAN feature
enabled, you can use the LSM operator panel to set the maximum number of
times a cartridge can be used. You can use the View Config section of
Figure 2-4 in Chapter 2 to determine whether the feature is enabled. The DLT
Tape Drive Product Manual suggest that you use a DLT cleaning cartridge about
20 times. For 9840 linear serpentine cartridges, refer to the 9840 Tape Drive
User's Reference Manual PN 95739.
Refer to
Figure 2-2
and
Figure 2-4
to set the count.
