Teaching the library (configuration and calibration)
The Teach command enables you to update the stored library configuration and calibration
information. Use this command after you replace a library component or whenever you need to
assess the position and alignment of library components or the physical library configuration (such
as the number of modules and I/E stations, the locations of storage magazines and drives, and
the types of media used in the library).
You can configure the library to automatically perform the full teach routine (configuration and
calibration) whenever the library power is cycled. For more information, see
Running configuration teach
Starting the configuration teach process causes the library to assess its contents, gathering
information as follows:
•
Number of modules
•
Types of media
•
Storage magazine locations
•
Number of I/E stations and magazine type
•
Types of drives
•
Drive locations
If you change the physical library configuration in any of these areas, you should initiate the
configuration teach process (for example, when you add or remove storage or remove storage to
add another component). The library will automatically perform a configuration teach, calibration
teach, and inventory when an EM or HDEM is added.
The library automatically performs an inventory after it completes the configuration teach process.
To run configuration teach:
1.
Log on as an administrator.
2.
Ensure that you are viewing the physical library. From the View menu or in the Managed
Views area of the LMC, select the name of the physical library.
