HP StoreEver ESL G3 Tape Libraries - Manual (Page 161)

• No affect to integrity of data
To perform these tests, the picker assembly must be ready and functional, and the library must be
powered on. In addition, the library must be in an offline state, and at least one scratch tape must be
inserted in the I/E station.
Verification Test Descriptions
Installation Verification Test
The installation verification test enables you to verify that the library installation and configuration is
complete and functioning correctly. The installation verification test runs the following individual tests:
• Library alignment test
• Picker assembly test
• I/E station assembly test
• Get/Put test
• Scanner fiducial test
A smaller library configuration will require about 1 hour. Larger configurations will require as long
as 6 hours to run the installation verification test. The time to complete individual tests on an 8-frame
configuration is approximately:
• Library alignment test - 30 minutes
• Picker assembly test - 1 minute
• I/E station assembly test - 5 minutes for each 24 slot I/E station
• Get/Put test - 120 minutes
• Scanner fiducial test - 75 minutes
Partial System Tests
The partial system tests perform the selected sub-tests to test an area or range of the library
configuration. The selectable tests include:
• Frame test - This test includes the same individual tests as the installation verification test, but enables
you to specify a range of modules rather than testing all modules.
• Configuration test - This test includes the picker assembly and scanner fiducial tests.
Both tests enable you to select a range of modules and racks to test. For example, if you have a
4-module library, you can select to test only modules 3 and 4. The frame test performs the same
operations as the installation verification test, except there are frame and rack range parameters
available.
FRU Operational Tests
The FRU operational tests enable you to verify the replacement of a FRU. When the FRU test is selected,
you can select any of the following individual tests:
• Accessor assembly
• Picker assembly
• Drive sled assembly
• I/E assembly
• Scan barcode
