54 Moving or Shipping the Library
WARNING Do not move the library without additional help or an
appropriately rated lift device. The 2/20 series library weighs
40 kg (87 lb). The 4/40 series library weighs 75 kg (165 lb).
The 6/60 series library weighs 104 kg (249 lb). The 8/80 and
10/100 series libraries weigh approximately 227 kg (500 lb).
Caution To avoid damage to the library, ensure that it is in an upright
position at all times. Never place the library on its sides.
Note During normal operation, changes to configurations are stored
in Non-Volatile (NV) RAM for eight days. All configuration
settings can be permanently saved to flash memory by power
cycling the library. This allows the settings to be recovered if the
library is unplugged for more than eight days. If this step is not
completed and the library is unplugged for more than eight
days, any new settings may be lost. Before shipping the library,
verify that the configuration settings were saved permanently by
first powering down the library, and then powering back up to
store the settings and to view them.
To move or ship the library:
1. Verify that all drives are empty. If a drive contains a tape, unload it. Refer
to the backup software documentation, use the remote management card
(see page 96), or use the front panel menu as follows:
a. From the Drive and Tape Operations menu, select Unload Tape from
Drive.
b. Use the [-] or [+] keys to select the drive you want to unload.
c. Select [Unload] to move the tape from the drive to the tape's original
location (the slot it occupied before being loaded into the drive). If
that slot is occupied, you will be asked to select another slot location.
