NEOxl 80 Tape Library
Spare Chassis Replacement Instructions
This document describes how to remove and replace either a
Base Module or Expansion Module in a NEOxl 80 Tape Library
from Overland-Tandberg.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to
equipment, always remove any power cords while working with
the library.
WARNUNG:
Um das Risiko eines elektrischen Schlags oder
Schäden am Gerät zu vermeiden, ziehen Sie stets den
Netzstecker, bevor Sie an der Einheit arbeiten.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Pour réduire le risque de choc électrique
ou endommagement de l'équipement, retirez toujours les
cordons électriques en travaillant avec l'appareil.
CAUTION:
While working with the library, observe standard
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions to prevent damage
to micro-circuitry or static-sensitive devices.
Special Handling Notice
Each NEOxl 80 Base Module weighs more than 90 lbs (44kg)
without drives or tapes, and more than 156 lbs (70kg) with six
tape drives and 80 tapes.
Before moving or lifting the Base Module, remove all tape
drives and tapes to reduce the weight (see below).
Overview
CAUTION:
In the NEOxl 80 Tape Library, do not replace both the library controller and the Base Module chassis at the same time
as the serial numbers for both cannot be updated when both are replaced simultaneously. If you receive a new library controller
and chassis for the Base Module, first install the new library controller in the old Base Module as directed in the Spare Library
Controller Replacement Instructions, then follow these instructions to replace the Base Module chassis.
To replace an existing NEOxl 80 Tape Library module, the steps include:
1.
Save the library configuration.
2.
After removing the tape cartridges and drives, remove the old module from the rack.
3.
If necessary, transfer the top and/or bottom cover from the old module to the new one.
4.
Move the power supplies, DC-DC board, and controller from the old module to the new one.
5.
Install the new module in the rack and align the module with the rest of the library.
6.
Reinstall tape cartridges and drives into the new module in the same locations.
7.
Reconnect the cables and verify the installation.
You will need a small flat head or Torx screwdriver and a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
