Drive Cleaning Tasks

Clean a Drive Manually

Your library could contain more than one type of drive. So, before initiating a clean job, make sure that the system cells have the appropriate cleaning cartridges for the drives being cleaned. Generate a cartridge summary and drive details report to verify the cleaning cartridges present in the library.

Note – To display a list of cleaning cartridges, see “Display Cleaning Cartridges” on page 111.

Note – You can initiate a manual clean even if the “drive needs cleaning” status is “false.”
