Using Cartridges
Ready/Activity Green Illuminated when power is on. Blinking whenever there is tape drive or autoloader robotics activity.
Clean Drive Amber Illuminated when the tape drive needs to be cleaned. The LED turns off when cleaning is successfully completed (see " Cleaning
the Tape Drive "). Regular periodic cleaning of the LTO-2 tape drive is not required.
Media
Attention Amber Illuminated if a media-related error has occurred. This condition can be the result of dirty read/write heads in the tape drive, or if
an invalid or damaged cartridge is inserted. The offending cartridge will show an '!' in the cartridge inventory display for the
corresponding slot. Exporting the indicated cartridge will clear the error condition (see "
Exporting Cartridges "). If these symptoms
occur on multiple known good cartridges, consider cleaning the tape drive (see " Cleaning the Tape Drive "). If a particular cartridge
causes these symptoms repeatedly, that cartridge may be defective or invalid.
Error Red Illuminated if an unrecoverable tape drive or autoloader error occurs. A corresponding error message appears on the LCD screen
(see "
Autoloader Error Codes ").
