B.5 Unloading a Data Cartridge
Complete this subsection to unload a data cartridge; refer to
Figure B-8 on page B-8
as needed.
1.
Press the Eject button (or issue an appropriate system software command); the tape drive
completes any active writing of data to the media. The Drive Status LED flashes as the media
rewinds.
When the media is finished rewinding, the tape drive ejects the data cartridge and the Drive Status
LED lights steadily.
2.
Remove the data cartridge from the tape drive and return the data cartridge to its plastic case to
protect the data cartridge from damage.
C
AUTION
Remove the data cartridge from the tape drive BEFORE
turning off host power. Failure to remove a data cartridge may
result in data cartridge or tape drive damage.
Do NOT rush removal of the data cartridge: premature
removal can cause tape leader failure. Wait until the tape drive
ejects the data cartridge and the Drive Status LED lights
steadily before removing the data cartridge.
