Compaq StorageWorks ESL9000 Series Tape Library Reference Guide
Moving Cartridges
The MOVE CARTRIDGE command lets you move any tape cartridge in the library to the
destination you specify. This destination can be a storage bin, a tape drive, the load port,
the gripper, or the PTM.
NOTE:
To move a cartridge from a tape drive if auto-drive unload is disabled, issue an UNLOAD
DRIVE command. See “Unloading a Drive” described later in this chapter.
To move a cartridge:
1. On the Operator screen, press the
Move Cartridge
button. The control panel displays
the Control: Move Cartridge screen, with the Source input field active
(see Figure 4-7).
