Chapter 7. Maintenance, Troubleshooting, and Repairs
Updating Library Robotics Firmware
Note:
To complete this procedure, you must have a Spectra Logic
firmware upgrade tape available from Spectra Logic Technical
Support.
To load the library firmware:
1. Power down the host computer.
2. Disconnect the SCSI cable from the library; this will prevent conflicts between
the host bus adapter and the library SCSI ID setting.
3. Open and close the library door.
Before the picker completes its initialization routine, it pauses in front of the
DCM and the LED shines green.
4. Open the door of the library while the picker is parked in front of the DCM.
5. Carefully insert the firmware upgrade tape into Drive 1 with the tape’s clear
plastic window facing the top of the drive.
Note:
In a two-drive library, Drive 1 is the drive closest to the DCM.
6. Turn off the power to your library.
7. Move the library to a position that provides easy access to both the front and
rear of the library.
Note:
You may close the library door while moving the library, if
necessary. However, you must re-open the door before the
upgrade. The library door must remain open during the entire
upgrade procedure.
8. Locate the configuration switches on the rear of the library.
9. Write down the current settings of the library configuration switch and the
library SCSI ID switch.
10. Use a small screwdriver to turn the library configuration switch (Config) to 4
and the library SCSI ID switch (Library) to 7.
11. Make sure that the library door is open.
