Tape drives are installed into tape drive
bay
s in the rear of the library. If a tape drive
bay
is empty, a
cover plate
covers the empty tape drive
bay
to prevent debris from entering the library.
Tape drives
can be installed in
any available tape drive bay.

Magazines
The library is equipped with four removable magazines all accessible from the f
ront of the unit. The
lower
magazines hold 12 cartr
idges each and the two upper
magazines hold 8 cartridges each. There
are no hidden

. To cool the librar
y there are air inlet holes on the bezels. For easy removal of the
magazines, use handles on the sides of the bezels. For details on magazine handling, see the
section
Magazine Handling.
Front Panel
The Front P
anel includes the
Operator
control panel with LCD display, four control buttons, two LED

Control Buttons
The labels for the four control buttons are displayed in the corners of the LCD. All
buttons have “soft

activities. The actual function for each button is a
lways visible on the display.
LED Indicators
The two LED indicators are green and amber. They indicate the
StorageLibrary T40 activity as
follows:
Green LED on: The
StorageLibrary T40
is either
running or ready for operation
Green LED blinking: Short blinks followed by long intervals indicate that the library is in low power
standby mod
e
Amber LED on: Fault LED; the
StorageLibrary T40 has encountered an e
lectrical or mechanical
failure
Standby Switch
A switch on the front panel provides a Library Standby. If the switch is pushed when the library is
active, the library completes the curre
nt operation and then goes off

switch, the fuse holder (with a 250V 2A

use) and the AC power cord connection are combined in one
common unit.
SCSI and Fiber Channel Interface Connectors
The library supports both S
CSI and FC drives. The SCSI drive CRU has two shielded 68
-
pin HD SCSI
connectors on the rear panel and the FC CRU has
one
FC connector. The connectors are used for
connecting the tape drive and the
StorageLibrary T40
to the host. These connectors can link
to the
following:
A shielded male HD68 SCSI cable
A shielded male HD68 SCSI terminator

Ethernet Port
This port is for the Remote Management system and allows you to connect the

If a drive

Library Features
This section describes several features of the
StorageLibrary T40
.
Operator
Interfaces
The front panel is located on the front of the library and allows
users
to work locally on the library via
the
Operator
i
nterface. The remote management interface allows
users
to view and perform library
functions from remote sites and is accessible through a browser. The front panel and remote
management interface
s
contain a similar
Operator interface and functionality. For
more information
about the front panel and the web interface,
see
Information
about
the
Operator
Interfaces
.
ADI Bridging and Logical Unit Numbering (LUN)
The
StorageLibrary T40
implements ADI bridgin
g with LUN addressing. This means that the library
controller does not have its own host interface, but SCSI commands to the library controller are sent
via one of the installed tape drives. The tape drive and the library controller will have a common SCSI
ID but different LUN numbers. The SCSI commands to/from the library controller are sent via the tape
drive’s ADI port.
The purpose of the LUN interface is to eliminate the requirement for a host interface on the library
controller boa

libraries for purposes of file management, access by multiple
Operator
s, or dedication to one or more
host applications.
Organizing the library into partitions divides the resources into virtual sections. If one of the resources
is not available due to a failure or other cause, the other partitions and their assigned components are
still available.
The
StorageLibrary T40
can be divided into a maximum of four partiti
ons. At least one tape drive and
one magazine must be assigned to each partition. The robotics, the import/export
slots
and the
cleaning s
lots
are common resources to all partitions. For more information on partitions
, see
Configuring
Partitions
.
Control Path
The “control path” tape drive is used to connect a partition to a host application. Only one tape drive
can be selected as the control path at one time. By default, the first tape drive assigned to a partition
is designated the control path. In the event that the control path connection to the host application
fails, you can select a new control path for the partition.
I/E Station
I/E station enables importing and exporting cartridges without interrupting norma
l library operations.
I/E station
slots
are located in
either the lower left or the upper left
magazine. The number of I/E
slots
for the 40
slot library is
user
settable to 0 (none), 3 or 8. The number of
I/E
slots
for the 24
slot
library
is
user
settable
to 0 (none) or 3.
The I/E
slots
are shared among all partitions. When a
cartridge in a
n I/E
slot
is assigned to a partition,
only that partition can access that
I/E
slot
.
Access to the I/E
slot
is managed through the front panel interface only.
Simple Netw
ork Management Protocol (SNMP)
The
StorageLibrary T40
supports system monitoring via SNMP and SNMP Notifications.
Capacity on Demand (COD)
In
StorageLibrary T40
libraries, LTO storage
slots
are licensed for use. At any time, Capacity on
Demand (COD) allows
you to enable the unused storage
slots
within a library via a
n
electronic
license
key. The
StorageLibrary T40
comes with 24
or 40
slots (two lower magazines)
A StorageLibrary T40
with 24 slots can later be upgraded to 40 slots purchasing the Capacity On Demand (COD) license
key
Details about the COD license key
:
The license key does
not expire
Once a license key is installed it cannot be removed
The COD license key can be purchased as any other product from Tandberg Data.
To see your library’s current configuration and
slot
availability, open
the
home screen
of t
he remote
management interface.
Once you receive the license key, enter
it
via the front panel of the library. When the license key is
entered, the total number of available
slots
in the library inc
reases.
