Inserting a Tape Cartridge
To insert a tape cartridge:
1 Ensure that the drive is powered-on.
2 Ensure that the write-protect switch on the tape cartridge is
properly set (see Write-Protect Switch on page 66).
Force a drive dump (part of the
maintenance mode)
Caution: If the drive detects a permanent error and displays an
error code, it automatically forces a drive dump (also
known as a save of the firmware trace). If you force a
drive dump, the existing dump will be overwritten
and data will be lost. After you force a drive dump,
do not turn off the power to the drive or you may
lose the dump data.
Choose one of the following procedures:
• If the drive is in maintenance mode (Ready light is flashing
and Fault light is On for Maintenance mode), refer to
Function Code 4: Force a Drive Dump on page 49.
• If the drive is in operating mode (Ready light is On or
flashing), press and hold the Unload Button for ten seconds.
If captured dump data exists, the drive places it into a dump
area (for information about retrieving the data, see Procedure
1: Determining Firmware Level and Capturing Drive Dump on
page 79).
Reset the drive Press and hold the Unload Button until the drive begins the
reset procedure (Fault light will turn On when reset starts).
Note: If a tape cartridge is loaded in the drive the drive will
unload the tape. Repeat the Reset the drive procedure
after the tape is unloaded. The drive saves a dump of the
current drive state, then reboots to allow
communication. Do not cycle power as this will erase the
contents of the dump.
