The following library diagnostics are available in this menu:
v
System Test
- this test exercises library components by moving customer data
cartridges from slots to drives and back to slots. No data is written or read from
the customer tapes. To run this test successfully, the library must contain at least
one data cartridge for every drive present in the library.
v
Slot to Slot Test
- The Slot To Slot test will move each resident data cartridge
from one slot to another, for each test cycle requested. When completing the Slot
To Slot test, you will need to Inventory your library before placing it back
online, since this test scrambles the cartridge slot locations.
