Note: You do not need to change the current library view to
change the online or offline state of the physical library or
a partition.
For more information about using this dialog box to change online or
offline mode, see Changing the Library’s State on page 475.
Changing the Library’s State
You can take the physical library or any of its partitions online or offline.
Some library functions require that the physical library or partitions be
in an online or offline state. You also can shut down the physical library
from the library’s touch screen.
Shutting down the library only prepares it to be powered off. You will
use the shutdown procedure in some circumstances to prepare the
library for remove and replace procedures. For more information about
shutting down the library, see Shutting Down/Rebooting the Library on
page 485.
