Inspecting the Library and Drives

Visually inspect the library and drives, using a flashlight if necessary:

1. Check the library’s exterior and interior for any obvious physical damage or loose

parts.

2. Make sure that the cables and accessories you require are present. Refer to your

shipping bill. Some items might be shipped in a separate package.

____ SCSI cables
____ SCSI terminators
____ SCSI adapters
____ Fibre Channel cables
____ AC power cable
____ Cartridges and labels
____ Personality module (in a bag taped to the power supply handle)

3. Report any damaged, missing, or incorrect items to your sales representative.

Preparing the Installation Location

Prepare the installation location:

1. Make sure that the location is clean, dry, level, and adequately ventilated.

2. Allow sufficient space to service the library from the front, right side, and rear. Each

of these areas should have a service clearance of 610 mm (2 ft).

3. Make sure that the AC power outlet is near the library and is easily accessible to the

library’s power cable.

4. If you are installing the library in a 483-mm (19-in.) standard-width rack, you must

have either brackets or a tray measuring at least 711 mm (28 in.) deep. Make sure that
the brackets or tray is installed within the rack before you install the library.

meets the required dimensions and weight.
