Table 26 Common Interface Manager card issues (continued)

Solution

Possible cause

Symptom

Check cabling and observe indicators on the Interface
Manager card, interface controllers, and tape drives.

Cabling

Configuration

Check each interface controller for active link LEDs to each
tape drive.

Check that the number of tape drives reported by the
library matches the number of tape drives reported by the
Interface Manager card. Check each interface controller
for correct number of tape drives mapped. Reboot
mismatched interface controllers or tape drives, if needed.
Restore default configuration on mismatched interface
controllers and reboot.

Disconnect Interface Manager card from interface
controllers and restore system defaults on the Interface
Manager card. Reconnect connections to interface
controllers and reboot.

Swap tape drive locations to see if the problem follows
the tape drive, and replace the tape drive, if needed.
