Description

IO tests. Each test is run one time per test loop. Drives and picker must be
empty. Also requires one loaded tape cartridge and empty slots equal to the
number of drives installed.

DEMO
Used by service personnel only. Do not run this test if the library
contains tape cartridges with customer data on them.
This test moves randomly chosen cartridges to random storage slot
locations. This test displays
FAIL
if there are no cartridges in the library or
if all storage slots are full. For best results, the library should contain as
many cartridges as there are drives, plus two additional cartridges. The
transport and mailslot must be empty.
IO DRIVE
Makes a combination of moves with a PASS/FAIL result. If the drives are
empty, a tape cartridge is moved from a randomly chosen full slot to a
randomly chosen drive. If the drives are full, a tape cartridge is moved
from a randomly chosen drive to a randomly chosen storage slot. It then
moves the cartridge back to its original location. This test displays
FAIL
if
there are no cartridges in the library or if all storage slots are full. The
transport and mailslot must be empty.
IO MAGAZINE
Makes a combination of moves with a PASS/FAIL result. It moves a tape
cartridge from a randomly chosen full slot to a randomly chosen empty
slot. It then moves the tape cartridge back to its original storage slot. This
test displays
FAIL
if there are no cartridges in the library or if all storage
slots are full. The drives, transport, and mailslot must be empty.
INVENTORY
CHECK
Functions the same as the SCSI Initialize Element Status command. This
test physically scans the entire unit to determine which storage slots
contain tape cartridges and if the drives contain cartridges. NOTE: This
test appears as “ISTAT TEST” in all front panel error messages.
TEST TRANSLATE
Translates from side to side. No tape cartridges are required.
TEST VERTICAL
Moves the transport mechanism up and down the full length of the rail.
Returns PASS/FAIL. No tape cartridges are required.
