Using removable magazines
Removable magazines are used to import and export several tape cartridges at one
time from the library without interrupting library operations. A removable
magazine can hold 8 Ultrium tape cartridges, or 7 SDLT tape cartridges. A column
can hold 2 removable magazines. Removable magazines can be used in the first
column of the left load port, and the first two columns of the right load port.
Insert removable magazines
To use the removable magazines to load tape cartridges:
1. Prepare the tape cartridges by affixing a bar code label and write-protecting or
write-enabling each cartridge as desired. See “ Inserting tape cartridges ” on
page 60.
2. Load the tape cartridges into the removable magazine(s), using the same
media type of tape cartridges and removable magazines (SDLT cartridges in
an SDLT magazine; LTO cartridges in an LTO magazine). A removable
magazine is labeled with its media type (see
Figure 35 ).
Figure 35: Identify the removable magazine media type
3. Open the appropriate load port door (right or left).
Caution:
Ensure that the load port door is open so that the door’s clip is not
damaged when the load port ejects.
