Diagnostic Tests
Note Additional diagnostics are available from HP Library & Tape
Tools (see HP Library & Tape Tools on page 146 for more
information). Also, for troubleshooting information specific to
your drive technology, see Drives and Media on page 143.
All Diagnostic tests except for Clean Drive require the tape library and
associated drive to be inactive. The Main Diagnostics Menu (see Figure 13 on
page 49) lets you perform the following tests:
■ DRIVE DIAGNOSTICS:
— CLEAN DRIVE. Enables you to clean tape drives.
— MOUNT. Loads test tapes to a drive.
— DISMOUNT. Unloads test tapes from a drive.
— RUN DRIVE CHECK. Determines that the drive is in working order.
— MOUNT/DISMOUNT LOOP. Loads and unloads test tapes from a
drive. You may designate the number of times the tape library goes
through the loop.
Note HP does not recommend looping tests excessively.
■ GET-PUT LOOP. Gets a diagnostic tape and returns it to the same location.
You may designate the number of times the tape library goes through the
loop.
■ DEMO MODE. Simulates tape library operation.
For more information on using these tests, see Running Diagnostic Tests on
page 115.
