procedure.
Resolving Firmware Mismatches
When the new drive completes its power on sequence, the library may
display a firmware mismatch error. Determine the type of firmware
mismatch and update the firmware as necessary.
DCM Firmware Mismatch All components in the library should be at the
same library package level. Check the system messages to for any firmware
mismatch messages associated with the drive you just installed or
replaced.
To check the system messages, login to the BlueScale user interface and
click the System Status icon on the status bar.
If a DCM firmware mismatch is displayed in the System Messages after the
new drive powers on, then:
 If the current BlueScale package is 11.x or greater, run Package Update
to re-apply the current library package, which will update any non-
compliant components. See the BlueScale Package Update Instructions for
more information. In most cases this will upgrade the DCM firmware,
in some cases it will downgrade the DCM firmware.
 For libraries running BlueScale 10.x or earlier, contact Spectra Logic
Technical Support (see Contacting Spectra Logic on page 2 ) before
running Package Update.
