Once the data gets to the tape drive, it must be written onto the tape. If there are no bottlenecks and
the Library starts having performance problems:

•

Try a new cartridge. A marginal cartridge can cause performance problems when the tape drive
has to retry writing to bad spots on the tape.

•

Clean the tape drive. See “

Tape cartridges

” on page 59 for instructions.

Service and repair

Releasing the magazines manually

If you cannot remove the magazines via the OCP or RMI, do the following:

1.

Unplug the power cord from the device.

2.

From the back of the device, find the access holes for the right and left magazines. See
