Adding a module: Overview
To add a module to an existing configuration, you will
1. Power down the library.
2. Remove the top or bottom plate of the module. See “Preparing top and bottom modules” on page 42.
3. Install the module into the rack. See “Installing modules in a rack” on page 45.
4. Align and connect the modules. See “Aligning and connecting modules” on page 49.
5. Connect the components and cables. See “Replacing the Module components and cables” on page
128.
6. Connect the power cords, power on the library, and complete “Verifying Library Module installation
and configuration” on page 128.
7. Add tape cartridges to the new module.
Replacing a module: Overview
To replace the module, you will
1. Update the library firmware to the minimum code level of 1.2.1.0-A00 or higher.
2. Save the library configuration. See “Saving the configuration” on page 124.
3. Remove tape cartridges and power off the library. See “Removing the magazines and cartridges” on
page 125 and “Powering off the library” on page 125.
4. Remove all the components from the module and disconnect the power cords and cables. See
“Removing the Module cables” on page 125.
5. Remove the module from the rack. See “Removing the Module from a rack” on page 126.
6. Install the replacement module into the rack. See “Installing the Module into a rack” on page 128.
7. Replace the components and cables. See “Replacing the Module components and cables” on page
128.
8. Connect the power cords, power on the library, and complete “Verifying Library Module installation
and configuration” on page 128.
9. Replace the tape cartridges.
You need a T-10 Torx screwdriver to remove the drive bay covers and a small flat head screwdriver. Have
several static safe bags available for the boards that are moved to the replacement chassis.
Before the replacement procedure is begun
• Ensure that the rack is level side to side and front to back.
• Verify that any applications that are using the library are idle.
Attention: If the temperature in the room where the replacement module is installed varies by 15
C (59 F) from the room where it was stored, allow it to acclimate to the surrounding environment
for at least 12 hours before it is unpacked from the shipping container.
Saving the configuration
See “Locating Management functions” on page 65 for instructions on saving configuration settings to a
file or an FAT32 formatted USB flash drive with the Management GUI or with the Operator Panel. This
action is needed only for the Base chassis module and only as an extra safety precaution for both chassis
and controller card replacement.
