Step 4: Mount the Library in a Rack (optional)

Step 4: Mount the Library in a Rack (optional)

For stand-alone installations, go to “Step 5: Set the SCSI Interface Mode Switch” on page 1-20.

The rack slides can be adjusted to fit any standard rack with a depth of 26 to 31 inches (66.04 to 78.75 centimeters).

Safety Precautions

Because the tape library weighs approximately 100 pounds (45 kilograms), the following safety precautions must be taken when mounting the tape library:

•Fully extend the rack’s antitip rail and lower the leveller feet.

•Mount the tape library no higher than 4 feet (122 centimeters) in the rack.

•IMPORTANT: At least two people must lift the library during installation.

Do not pull the library out of the rack to its fully extended position unless the anti-tip rail on the bottom of the rack has been positioned correctly. Do not attempt to move the tape library by yourself.

The tape library weighs approximately 100 pounds (45 kilograms). Pulling the library out of the rack without the rack’s anti-tip rail extended could result in personal injury and/or damage to the tape library if the rack tips over.
