Prerequisites
Before running this script, the following conditions must be met:
•AMASS must not be running when you run install_tests.
•The drives must be empty but Active.
•At least one tape or optical platter must be in a home storage slot; this volume should be the Backup Volume. Just make sure this volume is not a cleaning cartridge because a cleaning volume does not return a “tape loaded status” to AMASS and thus install_tests will fail.
•If more than one client (besides AMASS) is sharing a drive through DAS for an AML, the drive must be allocated to AMASS for install_tests to successfully complete. For instructions on configuring AMASS as a DAS client, refer to “Using DAS as a Library Interface” in Accessing Storage Devices.
