Powering Off The Lsm; Operating In Automated Mode; Entering Cartridges Through The Cap - HP Surestore Tape Library Model 10/588 Hardware Manual

Powering Off the LSM

To power off the LSM:
1. Make sure that no jobs are being run by the drives or robot and that no
tapes are in the drives.
2. Push down the power switch on the bottom right corner of the right front
door of the LSM.

Operating in Automated Mode

Automated mode is the normal operating mode of the LSM. When the LSM is
online and the robot is mounting and dismounting cartridges, monitor the LSM
operator panel for messages and respond appropriately. The normal message is
"ONLINE CAP UNLK DISABLD" or "ONLINE - PRESS EXE TO UNLK CAP."
When an LSM is online, you might need to:
• Enter cartridges into the LSM through the cartridge access port (CAP)
• Eject cartridges from the LSM through the CAP
• Replace the cleaning cartridge
The following text describes how to perform these activities.

Entering Cartridges through the CAP

If the LSM operator panel displays "ONLINE CAP UNLK DISABLD," the CAP is
locked by the host. Issue the command using the LSM management software
that puts the LSM in the "ONLINE - PRESS EXE TO UNLK CAP" mode. Then
perform the steps below.
To unlock the CAP so that you can open the CAP and enter cartridges into it:
1. Press EXECUTE on the LSM operator panel.
a. The LSM operator panel displays "ONLINE CAP UNLK PENDING."
b. The hand unlocks the CAP.
c. The LSM operator panel displays "ONLINE CAP UNLOCKED."
CAUTION:
You must enter the cartridges properly or you might damage the robot or
the drive, or cause the LSM to stop operating. Use only DLT cartridges
for the DLT drives. Use only 9840 cartridges for 9840 drives.
2. Open the CAP to gain access to the cells.
3. Enter the cartridges so that they lie flat, with the customer label on top and
the tape leader block cutout on the right side of the cartridge.
