Unloading a Data Cartridge

Unloading a Data Cartridge

Note: A tape cartridge can be unloaded during an active FTP session only by using the built-in FTP client. Right-click within the right pane of the FTP client window to display the Contextual menu, then click Eject tape.

Follow these steps to unload a data cartridge; see figure 21 as needed.

Caution: Remove the data cartridge from the tape drive before turning off host power. Failure to remove a data cartridge may result in data cartridge or tape drive damage.

Do not rush removal of the data cartridge. Wait until the tape drive ejects the data cartridge and the Drive Status LED lights steady before removing the data cartridge.

1Press the Eject button (or issue an appropriate system software command); the tape drive completes any active writing of data to the media, then rewinds. The Drive Status LED flashes as the media rewinds.

When the media is finished rewinding, the tape drive ejects the data cartridge and the Drive Status LED lights steadily.

2Remove the data cartridge from the tape drive and return the data cartridge to its plastic case to protect it from damage.
