Maintaining tape drives

Adding and removing an external tape drive for data migration

To temporarily add an external tape drive for data migration, and remove the tape drive when the migration is complete:

1.Log in to the system as root.

2.Enter the following commands: cd /dev/rmt

pwd

The pwd command verifies that you are in the /dev/rmt directory.

3.Enter: rm *

This removes tape drive device files. If you do not remove the tape drive device files before rebooting the system, the tape drive device files may not match the hardware configuration.

4.Enter:

/usr/sbin/shutdown -y -i0 -g0

The system shuts down.

5.Press and release the front panel power button to turn off the system. Wait for the front panel Power/OK LED to turn off.

6.Turn the key switch to the Forced Off position. See the following figure.
