Startup A-1
AStartup
The SL150 library is typically started up when power is applied (the power cord is
plugged in or the external power is switched on). If the library was manually powered
down (from the front panel power switch or the shutdown function of the remote
management interface), pressing the front panel power switch starts the library.
If the library is in the factory default state, Library Initialization starts. Prompts appear
on the operator panel for the administrator to enter the minimal information needed to
bring the library to a running state (see Chapter 4, "Library Initialization"). When the
administrator completes the process, the library performs a reboot.
During library startup, the following steps are performed:
1. The robot is unparked.
2. The hand fully retracts.
3. The robot moves from the top to the bottom of the entire library. By starting at the
top and moving down one module at a time, the robot determines the order of the
modules.
4. The wrist sweeps through its full range of motion.
5. The hand moves through the full track range.
6. The reach mechanism extends and retracts.
7. Magazines are latched.
8. A full library audit is performed.
You can observe the progress of a library audit from the Library view in a web
browser. Tape slots that have not been audited are greyed-out and audited tape
slots are active (slot contains a barcode icon).
When the audit completes and all drives are ready, the library is operational.
