Using the 12/24GB 4mm Tape Drive
This chapter provides information about operating, using, and maintaining your 12/24GB
4mm Tape Drive.
Operating Recommendations
Attention: For optimum performance, always follow the recommendations listed below:
v
Use only high-quality data grade 12/24 GB 4 mm tape cartridges recommended by
the manufacturer (see “Obtaining Additional Tape Cartridges” on page 38). Tape
cartridges that do not carry the proper DDS symbol cannot be written to, and their
use causes the 12/24GB 4mm Tape Drive to report an error.
v
Remove the tape cartridge from the tape drive when it is not in use, and store the
cartridge in the cartridge case.
v
Do not open the door on the data tape cartridge. This door covers and protects the
magnetic tape material from dirt, dust, and damage.
v
Avoid touching the tape, as doing so can cause loss of data.
v
Back up any tape cartridge that repeatedly produces error messages, then discard
the old tape cartridge. Error information is saved in the system error log.
v
Clean the tape path regularly according to the cleaning procedure described in
“Cleaning the Tape Path on the 12/24GB 4mm Tape Drive” on page 37. Use only
recommended cleaning cartridges. Other cleaning cartridges can permanently
damage the tape drive.
