To Set IP Addresses

Select DHCP if your network provides IP addresses through DHCP, or select Use Static Address if you want to assign an IP address.

To assign an IP address, enter the IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway that you want the library to use, and then tap Set Address.

Checking Inventory

To see more data about inventory, and to insert/eject/move media elements:

Tap Inventory in the General toolbar, Media on the General Status screen, or the tape icon on the bottom of the screen.

Inserting and Ejecting Cartridges

We recommend you use the Inventory screen only for inserting new media or to remove ejected tapes from the E/E port. Use your backup software to move AIT cartridges and to eject backups for offsite and offline storage.
