Chapter 3

Enabling Auto Clean

Note

Ensure your backup software support this feature before

installing. For cleaning cartridge information specific to your

drive type, see

Drives and Media

on page 135.

You will need to clean the drives occasionally to prevent read and write errors.

Enabling the Auto Clean feature allows the library to initiate drive cleaning

without your intervention. (A drive is cleaned with a special cleaning

cartridge.)
To enable Auto Clean, load valid cleaning cartridges into any of the 11 cells

that are reserved for cleaning and diagnostic cartridges. For the locations of

these cells, refer to

Reserved Cells

on page 24.

Note

To be valid:

A cleaning cartridge must have “CLN” in its VOLSER label.

9840 cleaning cartridges must also have a “U” on their media

ID labels.

HP Ultrium cartridges have unique bar code labels specific to HP

as the drive manufacturer. For more information, see

Drives and

Media

on page 143.
