Resetting System Defaults
As there is no access to the A-Series tape drive other than the Ethernet
port, a mechanism has been implemented to reset the settings to their
default values. This is useful if an end user loses the IP address of the
A-Series tape drive. The settings can all be set up through the Web
manager (i.e. IP settings, root password, ...).
To have the settings set back to their default values:
1
Switch off your tape drive.
2
Disconnect the network cable from the drive.
3
Repeat the following procedure three times:
a
Insert a write protected cartridge into the drive.
b
Switch on the tape drive.
c
After approximately one minute, the cartridge will be ejected.
d
Switch off the drive.
