HP
Library
&
Tape
Tools
HP
StorageWorks
Library
&
Tape
Tools
is
the
recommended
diagnostic
and
support
tool
for
your
HP
tape
drive
product.
It
is
available
from
a
link
on
the
CD
shipped
with
your
product
or
as
a
free
download
from
the
HP
web
site.
It
is
supported
on
nearly
all
major
operating
systems.
HP
recommends
installation
of
Library
&
Tape
Tools,
so
that
it
can
be
quickly
accessed
at
any
time.
HP
Support
will
also
request
that
you
use
Library
&
Tape
Tools
should
you
need
to
contact
them
in
the
future,
so
it
is
a
good
idea
to
have
it
installed.
See
http://www.hp.com/support/tapetools
for
compatibility
information,
updates
and
the
latest
version
of
the
tool.
Troubleshooting
with
Library
&
Tape
Tools
1.
When
Library
&
Tape
Tools
is
fi
rst
run,
it
will
scan
for
HP
tape
drives
and
libraries
on
your
system
and
ask
you
to
select
the
one
to
work
with.
At
this
time
you
can
see
the
HBA
con
fi
guration
of
your
server
and
how
your
devices
are
connected.
2.
Once
you
have
selected
your
device
you
have
a
number
of
choices
for
troubleshooting.
• Device
identi
fi
cation:
shows
part
number,
serial
number
and
information
about
any
cartridge
loaded.
•
Firmware
upgrade:
allows
you
to
locate
and
upgrade
to
the
latest
fi
rmware.
To
check
for
and download the
latest
fi
rmware
from
the
HP
web
site,
the
server
on
which
Library
and
Tape
Tools
is
running
must
have
an
internet
connection.
• Run
tests:
allows
you
to
run
proactive
tests
on
your
drive,
such
as
the
drive
assessment
test,
which
will
verify
the
functionality
of
your
drive
in
around
20
minutes.
HP
recommends
running
this
test
before
calling
HP
Support.
You
will
need
to
provide
a
‘trusted’
cartridge
that
can
be
written
to
during
this
test.
•
Generate
a
support
ticket:
this
is
a
full
dump
of
the
drive
logs
along
with
interpretation
and
is
used
by
HP
Support
to
learn
about
the
condition
of
your
drive.
Most
useful
is
the
device
analysis
section
which
is
the
output
from
approximately
20
rules
forming
a
comprehensive
analysis
of
the health of your drive.
These rules
may give advice such as cleaning
the
head
or
trying
a
different
tape
if
issues
are
found.
The
support
ticket
can
be
sent
to
HP
Support
for
further
analysis.
• Run
the
performance
tests:
the
tests
to
measure
the
write/read
performance
of
your
tape
drive
and
the
data
generation
rates
of
your
disk
subsystem
are
also
integrated
into
Library
&
Tape
Tools.
Use
these
tests
to
fi
nd
the
performance
bottleneck
in
your
system.
