TS3400 Tape Library Maintenance Information
5.
Browse to the file on your computer, select the “.fmrz” file that was downloaded
from the IBM web site, then click Yes to begin. It takes approximately 40 minutes
to update the drive firmware.
Note:
If the progress bar does not move after 5 minutes, cancel the upgrade and
verify that the correct code was selected. If the correct code was selected,
check for issues with the drive.
Note:
To reactivate the progress window after making the Web User Interface
window inactive, hold down the Alt key and press the Tab key on your
computer keyboard.
Using the IBM TotalStorage Diagnostic Tool (ITDT)
ITDT is a tool with multifunction capability and is a quick, convenient, and efficient
method for drive firmware updates. It can also assist with drive dump retrievals.
Below are some of the capabilities of this tool:
• Firmware update capability for IBM 3592 Tape Drive products.
• Does not require any special device drivers.
• Available for most major platforms (Windows
®
, AIX
®
, SUN, Linux™, NetWare).
• Capable of uploading drive dump files.
• The primary function is to test a drive. However, if the library is online to the
server/host where the tool resides, ITDT will communicate with the drive through
the library to load and unload a test cartridge, thereby exercising some library
functions.
• Scans to find and displays all IBM devices. The tool will not display any non-IBM
devices.
• The “Help” selection explains the required syntax as well as a brief explanation of
the particular function.
• A Readme text file will be posted with the .exe file for a thorough explanation of
initial tool download information from the web as well as explanation of tool
capabilities.
• The tool is available as a command-line utility, invoked by keying in the executable
name,
itdt
, from the directory where the tool is located, and as a graphical user
interface (GUI) tool.

Using the Update Device Microcode (QTAUPDDV) API on OS/400
On a AS/400 system, the Update Device Microcode (QTAUPDDV) API provides an
interface for updating device microcode from a code image stored in an Integrated
File System (IFS) stream file. The QTAUPDDV API can be used for a tape drive within
the library only when the device is deallocated from the library.
To update drive firmware:
1.
Download the latest drive firmware to your host computer by visiting
http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/storage/support/index.html
.
2.
Deallocate the drive from the library by entering the following at the OS/400
