Maintenance
This chapter explains how to maintain the library so that it can always be used to the best advantage.
In the unlikely event that smoke, strange odors or strange sounds are emitted
from this device, turn its power switch off immediately, then pull the power plug
from the socket. Continued use under such conditions may cause fire. If this
device breaks down or becomes damaged, use the power switch to turn off the
Library, then pull the power plug from the socket.

Drive Cleaning
Cleaning should be performed about once a month.
However, for Autoloaders that are used frequently, cleaning should be performed about once every
100 hours of backup time.
See "4.8.1Cleaning
" for the
operation of the cleaning.
Before using the operation panel to set cleaning, make sure that the backup software will not be
executing any jobs during the cleaning process. (If necessary, take measures such as turning off the
backup software service.)
・
Use a special cleaning cartridge with a bar code label that supports the drive to be
cleaned.
・
Clean the drive once a month or a backup of 100 hours when cleaning is necessary
in operation.(When there is a cleaning request from the drive, clean the drive.)
・
Each cleaning cartridge can be used up to 50 times.
Record the number of use, and when 50 times is reached, replace the cleaning
cartridge.
The drive will not be cleaned even if the cleaning cartridge being used has
exceeded its service life. When it's detected that a cleaning cartridge reached its
service life, it's shown to an operator panel with "REPLACE CLEANING
MEDIA".
・
[Clean Drive] doesn't operate when the bar code for the cleaning cartridge is not
stuck on the cleaning cartridge. In that case, please use and clean [Move
Cartridge].
・
[Clean drive] should be performed only when there are no backup software jobs
being executed.
9.1.1
Auto Cleaning
When you use the library with backup software, please set up an Auto Cleaning
Mode Disable.
If the backup software supports the AUTO CLEANING function, use the auto
cleaning function of backup software.
