Chapter 11: Troubleshooting
Running the Installation and Verification Test (IVT)
326 Quantum Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User’s Guide
• Ta p e D ri v e Te st — For each installed tape drive, the robot moves a
scratch tape into the tape drive, inventories the scratch tape, and
moves the scratch tape out of the tape drive. The test takes 1–2
minutes per tape drive.
• Magazine Test — Moves a scratch tape through all storage slots in
the library. These tests verify the robotics can reach all the slots in
the magazine for both get and put operations. The test takes up to
5 minutes per magazine.
Details about running the IVT include:
• Running the IVT takes partitions offline and logs all users off of the
Web client.
• The operator panel displays progress of all three subtests. Before a
test begins, its progress is “Scheduled.” When a test begins, its
progress changes to “Running.” Once a test completes, its progress
changes to either “Passed” or “Failed.”
• You can stop the IVT by pressing the Stop button. The progress of
the currently running test changes to “Stopping.” Once stopped,
the current test and all other scheduled tests display “Stopped.”
• You can only perform the IVT from the operator panel.
Prerequisites for Running IVT
Certain prerequisites must be met in order to run the IVT. Prior to
running the IVT, the library checks to make sure all the prerequisites are
met. If any is not, the operator panel displays a message telling you how
to resolve the issue. Prerequisites include:
• All diagnostic tickets must be closed.
• I/E station slots must be allocated (minimum of five).
• All magazines must be installed in the library (two in the Scalar i40;
four in the Scalar i80).
• At least one tape drive must be installed in the library.
• All installed tape drives must be in the ready state. (You can check
the Web client Setup > Drive Settings for listing of which drives
are in the ready state.)
