Calibration offsets, Boundary/accessibility, Get/put – HP StoreEver ESL G3 Tape Libraries User Manual
Page 176: 176 boundary/accessibility, 176 get/put
NOTE:
This graphical report is not generated for libraries with only one frame.
•
If the graphical report shows a failed result for the drive-side or door-side, make sure that all tape
magazines are installed properly on that side and that the calibration targets are correctly snapped
on to the magazines.
•
If the graphical report shows a failed result for the I/E station, make sure the I/E station and front
door are completely shut.
•
If running the test again still generates failed results, realign the middle X-axis rail and check the
alignment of the top and bottom X-axis rails at the location of the failure.
Calibration Offsets
The calibration offsets graphical report shows the results for tests of tape magazine, drive sled, and
I/E station offsets compared to predefined tolerances. Reports are generated for drive-side and
door-side for all frames.
•
If the graphical report shows a failed result for one or more tape magazines, make sure the
magazines at the location of the failure are installed properly and that the calibration targets are
correctly snapped on to the magazines.
•
If the graphical report shows a failed result for the I/E station, make sure the I/E station and front
door are completely shut.
•
If running the test again still generates failed results, realign the middle X-axis rail and check the
alignment of the top and bottom X-axis rails at the location of the failure.
Boundary/Accessibility
The boundary/accessibility graphical report shows the results for tests of the accessor while performing
Get, Put, and Scan functions for all tape magazines and drive sleds. (This tests whether magazines
and sleds are within the maximum allowable movement range of the accessor.)
•
If the graphical report shows a failed result for one or more tape magazines, make sure the
magazines at the location of the failure are installed properly and that the calibration targets are
correctly snapped on to the magazines.
•
If the graphical report shows a failed result for the I/E station, make sure the I/E station and front
door are completely shut.
•
If running the test again still generates failed results, realign the middle X-axis rail and check the
alignment of the top and bottom X-axis rails at the location of the failure.
Get/Put
The Get/Put graphical report shows the results for tests of the picker assembly while performing one
Get and one Put function for each tape magazine. The picker will use the selected scratch tape or the
existing tape if it finds one at the target.
•
If the graphical report shows a failed result for one or more tape magazines, make sure the
magazines at the location of the failure are installed properly.
•
If there are multiple marginal results in an area, review the area to make sure it is not prone to
problems. Also run the library alignment test (part of the installation verification or partial frame
test) to make sure the library is level.
•
If there are a large number of issues, use rubbing alcohol to clean the picker fingers and the detents
in the side of the tapes.
