Install the Updated Device Driver

Note: If the Windows Add New Hardware Wizard starts, ignore it. The installation script for the device driver automatically manages the wizard.

1.Open a Command Prompt window and change to the folder containing the extracted drivers file.

2.Using the command prompt, run the command to install the tape drive device driver.

Note: If the driver is unsigned, choose Continue Anyway when prompted.

Run the following command...	If you are using...
install_exclusive.exe	Tivoli® Storage Manager
	Note: The exclusive driver performs automatic SCSI Reserve and
	Release commands upon open and close of the tape drive device.
	Additionally, the driver enforces a single handle to the device on
	the backup server.
install_nonexclusive.exe	Microsoft Data Protection Manager (DPM), Removable Storage
	Manager (RSM), or any other software that does not require the
	exclusive driver.

3.If the library uses one of the tape drives to provide the robotic control path through ADI, you may need to reinstall the Media Changer driver using the Windows Add Hardware wizard. When prompted for the location of the driver, navigate to the following folder:

C:\Program Files (x86)\SpectraLogic\drivers\Spectra <Series>

Library Driver\

Notes: ƒ A medium changer driver is unnecessary in most configurations. The general practice is for the software to control the library directly, so there is no need for a robotics driver at the OS level.

Three known exceptions are for Windows RSM (Removable Storage Manager), DPM (Data Protection Manager), and File Migrator (or XenData). If you have one of these, right-click on the Unknown Medium Changer and choose Update Driver…. Use the Windows Add Hardware wizard to install the driver.
