IMPORTANT:
when running the wellness test. Verify that any applications using the device have completed
before starting the wellness test.
You can have the device run up to 10 cycles of the wellness test. If the library has more than
one tape drive installed, you can select whether to run the test on one or all of the tape drives.
The wellness test operates on the whole library, without regard to logical libraries.
The wellness test requires operator interaction and can only be run from the OCP. During the
wellness test:
1.
The operator starts the wellness test from the OCP. The administrator password is required.
2.
The device performs a self test and verifies that it can communicate with the tape drive.
3.
The library returns any tape cartridges from the tape drives to their home slots. If the home
slot for a cartridge is not known, the device will move the cartridge to the mailslot and prompt
the operator to remove it.
4.
The device prompts the operator to enter the number of cycles to run the test.
5.
The device opens the mailslot and prompts the operator to insert a scratch cartridge. In the
MSL8096, the 12-slot mailslot does not pop out; the operator must open it.
6.
The operator inserts a scratch cartridge into the lowest-numbered mailslot. If no mailslots
are enabled or the operator closes the mailslot without inserting a cartridge into the
lowest-numbered mailslot, the device will perform a shortened version of the wellness test,
skipping step 7.
7.
The device loads the scratch cartridge into the first tape drive, unloads the scratch cartridge
from the tape drive, and returns the scratch cartridge to the mailslot. If the operator selected
to test all of the tape drives, the device will load the scratch cartridge into each tape drive
before returning it to the mailslot.
8.
The device moves the tape cartridge from the four top-row corner slots to the tape drive load
point and then returns the tape cartridge to its slot. If one of the top-row corner slot positions
does not contain a tape cartridge, the device will skip that location. If none of the top-row
corner slots contain a tape cartridge, the device displays an error message.
9.
If additional cycles remain to be run, the test will return to step 7 if there is a tape cartridge
in the mailslot or step 8 if there is not a cartridge in the mailslot.
148 Troubleshooting
The library will remove any tape cartridges from the tape drives and go offline
