Locate and Remove Cartridge
To locate a particular cartridge inside the tape library:

3.Remove the cartridge from the slot by sliding the cartridge out.
4.Close the tape library door.
Insert Cartridges Into Slots
Depending on the version and configuration of your tape library, some storage slots cannot be used.
Note. You do not have to insert a cartridge into every storage slot. The tape library automatically audits cartridges and empty slots as part of its initialization routine.
Caution. Inserting the cartridges correctly is critical for library operation. If you do not orient the cartridges correctly or do not insert them all the way into the storage slots, the tape library might fail. Make sure you insert the cartridges into the magazine.
1.Check the cartridges to make sure they are correctly labeled.
2.Insert as many cartridges into the tape library as you want and as your configuration allows, making sure you seat them all the way into the storage slots.
