Installing, Removing, and Replacing
1
Prepare the rack to hold modules, if you want to install your library in a rack.
See
Installing the Rackmount Kit
on page 138 for instructions.The instructions include procedures for
removing and replacing tape drives.
2
Connect the fibre cables to the tape drives.
a. Attach one end of the fibre cable to the fibre port on each tape drive.
b. Attach the other end of the cable to the host or switch.
3
Connect the module-to-module cables.
a. Using the module terminators, terminate the top and bottom modules in the library stack. Install
one module terminator in the top terminator connector on the topmost module and one in the
bottom terminator connector on the bottommost module.
If your library configuration consists of a single module, place module terminators in the
module’s top and bottom module terminator connectors.
b. If you need to add a 9U expansion module to the control module, remove the module terminator
from the control module terminator connection that is closest to the 9U expansion module.
c. Replace the module terminator in the 9U expansion module terminator connection furthest from
the control module.
d. Connect the module-to-module cable from the control module to the 9U expansion module.
4
Connect your Ethernet cable to the Gigabit (GB) Ethernet port on the Library Control Blade (LCB) for
remote access to the library via the web client.
5
Connect a power cord to the outlet on the power supply on the rear of the library.
There should always be a power cord connected to the power supply on the control module. If
redundant power supplies are used, connect a power cord to each of the additional power supply
outlets.
6
Power on the library.
WARNING
ALL LIBRARIES MAY BE INSTALLED IN A RACK HAVING A MAIN
PROTECTIVE EARTHING (GROUNDING) TERMINAL, AND POWER
MUST BE SUPPLIED VIA AN INDUSTRIAL PLUG AND
SOCKET-OUTLET AND/OR AN APPLIANCE COUPLER COMPLYING
WITH IEC 60309 (OR AN EQUIVALENT NATIONAL STANDARD) AND
HAVING A PROTECTIVE EARTH (GROUND) CONDUCTOR WITH A
CROSS SECTIONAL AREA OF AT LEAST 1.5 MM
2
(14 AWG).
TO ENSURE PROPER AIRFLOW AND ACCESS SPACE, ALLOW 60 CM
(24 INCHES) IN THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE LIBRARY.
Note
Pay attention to where the operator panel is positioned in the rack for optimum
usability.
Note
The fibre cable can be connected from the tape drive to a switch rather
than a host.
CAUTION
The module terminator is not the same as a SCSI terminator. Using a
SCSI terminator instead of a module terminator will damage the
library.
