Overview of operating procedures
This section lists the procedures that you can perform with the TS3500 Tape Library.
Not all operating procedures are available from both the operator panel and the Tape
Library Specialist Web interface. The following tables provide links to the overview
information for each procedure. The superscript numbers indicate which procedures are
available through the operator panel (
1
), the Web (
2
), or both. The detailed information
about how to perform the task, from the Tape Library Specialist Web interface or the
operator panel, follows the overview information for each procedure.
If your library uses both LTO Ultrium and 3592 tape drive media, certain screens on the
operator panel may display a
Media Type
field. This field confirms the type of media that
you chose for a particular operation.
Note:
This information addresses the level of firmware that was available at the time of
publication. If you update your firmware to the latest level, the look and functionality of the
interface could be different from what is shown here.
