Other notes •
This test assumes:
The SDLT tapes have the proper bar code labels with S as the 7th character.
◦
◦
The SDLT drives have the latest firmware.
◦
The library is configured to show all bar code labels. Otherwise, the tapes may
not be recognized with this test.
•
If this test is run on a library with no SDLT 220 or SDLT 320 drives, it will not fail,
nor will it check anything. It will return “There were no errors identified”.
• Although primarily intended for libraries, this test is also supported on SDLT 220
and 320 standalone drives. For standalone drive testing, run Device Analysis on
the drive to get the media ID of the currently loaded tape.
NOTE: For instructions on how to perform this test, see “Running tests and
device-specific utilities” (page 29) or “Running the tests (CSI)” (page 50) .

This test script moves the robotics through the full range of motion to help prevent
reliability issues with the brush tracks. This test is available for the C7200 and C7145
library models. Description
NOTE: For instructions on how to perform this test, see “Running tests and
device-specific utilities” (page 29) or “Running the tests (CSI)” (page 50) .
Run this test if the results of a Device Analysis test recommend that you run this test.
This recommendation is based on reviewing library log data for certain critical errors,
including those related to issues with the brush tracks. When to run
Up to 2.5 hours, depending on whether the long or short test is selected. Average duration
Test will not overwrite any data on the media. Data from this test is logged into the
library for future use by support personnel. Other notes

DLT SRAM Check test (short and long versions)
CAUTION: These tests are destructive and will overwrite data on the media that is present in your
product.

These tests check DLT 8000 drive logs for evidence of SRAM chip corruption, and they
perform a read/write test to check the drive for susceptibility to SRAM corruption Description
problems. The tests are destructive to data on the cartridge in the drive. These tests
are only available for DLT drives.
