Updating Library and Tape

There are two types of firmware that can be upgraded on the library:
library firmware (including drive sled firmware) and tape drive
firmware. There may be times when you will need to upgrade your
library and tape drive firmware as directed by Dell Technical Support.
You can also regularly monitor the Dell Support Website at

for firmware upgrades, but you need to make sure
that the firmware you download is compatible with your library and tape
drives.
