Laser Safety and Compliance

Before using the library, review the following laser safety information.

Class I Laser ProductThe library may contain a laser assembly that complies with the performance

standards set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for a Class I laserproduct. Class I laser products do not emit hazardous laser radiation. The libraryhas the necessary protective housing and scanning safeguards to ensure that laserradiation is inaccessible during operation or is within Class I limits. External safetyagencies have reviewed the library and have obtained approvals to the lateststandards as they apply.

Performing the Safety Inspection Procedure

Before you service the unit, perform the following safety inspection procedure:

1. Stop all the activities between the host and the library's tape drives.

2. Turn off the power to the library by pushing in on the Powerbutton (1)shown in Figure 1-1 on Page 1-1 for 4 seconds.

3. If drives are SCSI attached, disconnect the SCSI cable and check the SCSI busterminator for damage.

4. Unplug the library's power cord or cords from the electrical outlet and thelibrary power supply.

5. Check the library's power cord for damage, such as a pinched, cut, or frayedcord.

6. If drives are SCSI attached, check the tape drive's SCSI bus (signal) cable fordamage.

7. If drives are FC/SAS attached, check the tape drive's FC/SAS cable fordamage.

8. Check the cover of the library for sharp edges, damage, or alterations that

expose its internal parts.

9. Check the cover of the library for proper fit. It should be in place and secure.

10. Check the product label at the rear of the library to make sure that it matchesthe voltage at your outlet.

Rack Safety

The following general safety information should be used for all rack mounteddevices.

DANGER

v Always lower the leveling pads on the rack cabinet.v Always install stabilizer brackets on the rack cabinet.

v To avoid hazardous conditions due to unevenmechanical loading, always install the heaviestdevices in the bottom of the rack cabinet. Alwaysinstall servers and optional devices starting from thebottom of the rack cabinet.

v Rack mounted devices are not to be used as a shelfor work space. Do not place any object on top of rackmounted devices.

v Each rack cabinet might have more than one powercord. Ensure that all power cords in the rack cabinetare disconnected before servicing any device in the

rack cabinet.

v Connect all devices installed in a rack cabinet topower devices installed in the same rack cabinet. Donot plug a power cord from a device installed in onerack cabinet into a power device installed in adifferent rack cabinet.

v An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired couldplace hazardous voltage on the metal parts of thesystem or the devices that attach to the system. It isthe responsibility of the customer to ensure that theoutlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent anelectrical shock.

CAUTION:

v Do not install a unit in a rack where the internal rackambient temperatures WILL exceed the manufacturer'srecommended ambient temperature for all your rackmounted devices.

v Do not install a unit in a rack where the air flow iscompromised. Ensure that air flow is not blocked or

reduced on any side of the unit.

v Connect the equipment to the supply circuit such thatoverloading of the circuits does not compromise thesupply wiring or overcurrent protection. To provide thecorrect power connection to a rack, refer to the ratinglabels located on the equipment in the rack to determinethe total power requirement of the supply circuit.

v (For sliding drawers) Do not pull out or install any draweror feature if the rack stabilizer brackets are not attachedto the rack. Do not pull out more than one drawer at atime. The rack may become unstable if you pull outmore than one drawer at a time.

v (For fixed drawers) Do not move a fixed drawer.

Attempting to move the drawer partially or completelyout of the rack may cause the rack to become unstableor cause the drawer to fall out of the rack.

CAUTION:Removing components from the upper positions in therack cabinet improves rack stability during relocation.Follow the general guidelines as listed below wheneveryou relocate a populated rack cabinet within a room orbuilding:

v Reduce the weight of the rack cabinet by removing

equipment starting at the top of the rack cabinet. Whenpossible, restore the rack cabinet to the configuration ofthe rack cabinet as you received it. If this configurationis not known, you must do the following:

Remove all devices in the 32U position and above.

Ensure that the heaviest devices are installed in thebottom of the rack cabinet.

Ensure that there are no empty U-levels betweendevices installed in the rack cabinet below the 32Ulevel.

v If the rack cabinet you are relocating is part of a suite ofrack cabinets, detach the rack cabinet from the suite.

v Inspect the route that you plan to take to eliminatepotential hazards.

v Verify the route that you choose can hold the weight ofthe loaded rack cabinet. Refer to the documentation thatcomes with your rack cabinet for the weight of a loadedrack cabinet.

v Verify that all door openings are at least 762 x 2032 mm(30 x 80 inches).

v Ensure that all devices, shelves, drawers, doors, andcables are secure.

v Ensure that the four leveling pads are raised to theirhighest position.

v Ensure that there is no stabilizer bracket installed on the

rack cabinet during movement.v Do not use a ramp inclined at more than ten degrees.

v Once the rack cabinet is in the new location, do thefollowing:

Lower the four leveling pads.

Bar Code Reader

The bar code reader is an integral part of the library accessor. The bar code readerprovides inventory feedback to the host application, Operator Control Paneldisplay, and Web User Interface by reading cartridge bar code labels. The librarystores the customized inventory data in memory.

Library firmware supports a 6 or 8 character volume serial number (VOLSER) onthe bar code label on the tape cartridge.

Encryption

The LTO Ultrium 4, 5, and 6 Tape Drive supports host Application ManagedEncryption (AME), Library Managed Encryption (LME), and System ManagedEncryption (SME), using T10 encryption methods, for SAS and Fibre Channeldrives only. Data encryption is supported with LTO Ultrium 4, Ultrium 5, andUltrium 6 Data Cartridges only. Encryption is also supported with library firmwareversion 4.0 or higher.

The encryption enabled drive contains the necessary hardware and firmware toencrypt and decrypt host tape application data. Encryption policy and encryptionkeys are provided by the host application or host server. A drive digital certificateis installed at manufacturing time. Each drive receives a unique serial number andcertificate. The T10 application may validate each drive instance by checking thedrive's digital certificate.

The LTO Ultrium 6 encryption environment is complex and requires knowledgebeyond that of product trained Service Support Representatives (SSRs). TheEncryption function on tape drives (desktop, stand alone and within libraries) isconfigured and managed by the customer. In some instances, SSRs are required toenable encryption at a hardware level when service access or service passwordcontrolled access is required. Customer setup support is by Field Technical Sales

Support (FTSS), customer documentation, and software support for encryptionsoftware problems. Customer 'how to' support is also provided via support linecontract.

The library firmware should always allow the user to select "None" or "ApplicationManaged Encryption" from the Web User Interface, as long as there is at least oneencryption capable drive in the logical library. If a valid Transparent Encryptionlicense key has been previously entered, "System Managed Encryption" or "LibraryManaged Encryption" can be selected. The factory default is "None."

Note: The optional Transparent Encryption Key feature enabling System ManagedEncryption and Library Managed Encryption is not available on TS3200 andTS3100 models purchased through High Volume (HVEC) channels.

Note: All encryption settings should be configured or re-verified in the drive afterany library or drive reset. This is because a new drive may have been addedor an existing drive may have been swapped with another drive.

For more details, see the IBM Tape Device Drivers documentation, and the IBMLTO Ultrium Tape Drive SCSI Reference documentation. See "Related Publications"in the Preface.

Supported Internet Protocols

The library supports the following Internet protocols:

v IPv4

v IPv6

To learn more about Internet protocols, visit http://www.iana.org/.

SNMP Messaging

Occasionally, the library may encounter a situation that you want to know about,such as an open magazine or a fault that causes the library to stop. The libraryprovides a standard TCP/IP protocol called Simple Network Management Protocol(SNMP) to send alerts about conditions (such as need for operator intervention)over a TCP/IP LAN network to an SNMP monitoring station. These alerts arecalled SNMP traps. Using the information supplied in each SNMP trap, themonitoring station (together with customer-supplied software) can alert operationspersonnel of possible problems or operator interventions that occur.

SNMP TrapsSNMP traps are alerts or status messages that can be collected, monitored andused to proactively manage attached libraries using SNMP protocol with the hostserver(s). In summary, each trap provides the following information:

v Product Identificationsuch as product name, description, manufacturer, modelnumber, firmware level, and the URL that the trap is designated for.

v Product Status such as the severity of the trap, status (current and previous) andthe time the trap occurred.

v Library State (physical device status) such as identification and status of devicesthat are monitored. In the case of the library, it would include enclosure, powersupply, controller, magazine status, drive count, cartridge slot count, and I/Ostation count. Also included would be certain library statistics, and whereappropriate, the fault FSC (fault symptom code) including the severity anddescription of that fault.

v Drive Status such as the identification of each drive in the library, firmwarelevel, serial number and other address and status information.

v Trap Definitions such as library status change, open magazine, I/O accessed,hard fault information, drive cleaning requests, excessive retries and libraryreturning to normal operations. For additional information, refer to Appendix G."SNMP Status MIB Variables and Traps" on page G-1.

v SNMP MIBs: The library's Management Information Base (MIB) contains unitsof information that specifically describe an aspect of the system, such as thesystem name, hardware number or communications configuration. Status anderror data is also gathered by MIBs and sent to one or more IP addressesdefined during the SNMP configuration operation. Download the SNMP MIBfile for this library from http://www.ibm.com/storage/support.
