TS3400 Tape Library Maintenance Information
Specifications
Maintenance Plan
The library consists of two hardware subsystems, the library and the tape drives. The
tape drive is packaged in a common drive canister and each drive canister is a FRU.
When a drive failure occurs, the drive canister is removed and returned to IBM for
repair. The library maintenance package supports the library and the library
interfaces with the tape drives.

Note: The operating environment of the library must not conflict with the media storage
requirements (refer to the IBM System Storage TS3400 Tape Library Planning and Operator Guide .
The library may be capable of operating at elevated temperatures for an extended period,
however, the temperature could shorten the useful life of media that is stored in the library. If
media is stored in the library for more than 10 hours, the storage temperature requirements
for media should be met. It should be assumed that media stored in the library is
approximately 2 degrees above ambient temperature when the library is powered ON.
