Replacing a 9U Library Expansion Module

These instructions explain how to remove and replace a 9U Library

Expansion Module. You may need to replace the 9U Library Expansion

Module if its chassis is severely damaged.
A library can use up to four 9U Library Expansion Modules to a

maximum height of 41U.
There are some configuration settings to take into account when

removing and replacing a 9U Library Expansion Module.

• COD licenses remain the same. After the 9U Library Expansion

Module is removed, there may be more slots licensed than are

available. Only the available slots appear on the

License

screen.

• All resources in the removed module(s) are removed. A partition

with all resources in the removed module(s) will be present with no

slots or drives. This partition can only be deleted.

Note:

The maximum number of 9U Library Expansion Module

supported in a library depends on the level of firmware

the library is running. See

Updating Library and Tape

Drive Firmware

on page 199 for more information.

Warning:

All libraries taller than 14U must be installed in a rack

having a main protective earthing (grounding)

terminal, and power must be supplied via an

industrial plug and socket-outlet and/or an appliance

coupler complying with IEC 60309 (or an equivalent

national standard) and having a protective earth

(ground) conductor with a cross sectional area of at

least 1.5 mm

2

(14 AWG).

To ensure proper airflow and access space, Allow 60

cm (24 inches) in the front and back of the library.
