TS2900 Tape Autoloader Setup, Operator, and Service Guide
• The cartridge will not eject automatically at the end of a mid-tape recovery. Instead,
the tape will be reloaded into the drive and may result in the loss of data.
• INTERNAL COMPONENTS OF THE DRIVE ARE DELICATE AND CAN
EASILY BE DAMAGED. EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN MANUALLY
REMOVING A CARTRIDGE THAT WILL NOT EJECT AFTER PRESSING THE
UNLOAD BUTTON.
Before You Begin
1. If you have not already done so, attempt to remove the cartridge with the device
power ON and using library manager, a host application, or the unload button.
When using the Unload button, press and hold the button for 12 seconds. This
will cause the drive to eject the cartridge when it has completed the mid-tape
recovery.
2. If you have not already done so, ensure the operator has issued the appropriate
application commands to perform a rewind and unload of the cartridge. This is
to ensure that the stuck cartridge is not due to a hang condition in the
application.
3. If you have not already done so, attempt to remove the cartridge by power
cycling the drive. Look for the drive to attempt a midtape recovery.
Note: It can take up to one hour for the cartridge to rewind and unload.
4. If the cartridge unloads, inform the operator that the cartridge is unloaded. If the
cartridge does not unload, repeat steps 2 and 3 once before continuing with this
procedure.
Recommended Tools

Beginning Procedure
1. Remove the drive. See “Removing/reinstalling the Tape Drive from/in the
Library” on page A-10.
2. Place the drive on a non-slip, sturdy work surface.
3. Ground yourself to the drive by using the ESD Kit.
4. Remove the cover of the drive by performing the following steps:
a. To remove the drive bezel, pull the right side of the bezel from the front of the
drive, then pull the left side of the bezel out of the frame of the drive.
