Installing the Tape Library

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

Mounting the Library

To mount the tape library in a rack, you must:

First, attach the front and back mounting brackets to the rack slides.

Next, attach the rack slides to the rack.

Finally, attach the tape library to the rack slides.

These steps are explained in detail in the following sections.

Attach the Mounting Brackets

 

1.

IMPORTANT: Lower the rack’s leveller feet using a 1/2-inch open-end wrench,

 

 

and extend the rack’s antitip rail.

 

 

WARNING

Failure to extend the antitip rail could result in personal injury and/or damage

 

to the tape library if the rack tips over.

 

2.

Pull the rack slide members out to the fully extended position. (The slides

 

 

 

should “click” into a locked position.)
