[. . . ] Caution After the cartridge is removed from the drive, return it to its plastic case to prolong the cartridge life. 20 Operation and Maintenance Cleaning the Drive Head The LTO standalone is a highly sophisticated unit. No routine maintenance is required apart from periodically cleaning the drive head whenever c appears on the single-character display. Insert the cleaning cartridge in the drive following the Loading the Data Cartridge procedure described elsewhere in this chapter. When the cleaning operation is complete, the drive will automatically unload and eject the cleaning cartridge, indicating that the cleaning cartridge should be removed. Follow the Removing the Data Cartridge procedure elsewhere in this chapter to remove the cleaning cartridge from the drive. Note Loading the cleaning cartridge into the drive at the end of its cleaning cycle will result in a failed or shortened cleaning operation. If c is still displayed on the single-character display, replace the cleaning cartridge and clean the drive again. Cleaning the Enclosure The outside of the enclosure can be cleaned with a damp towel. Do not spray the enclosure. Operation and Maintenance 21 Blank Page 22 Operation and Maintenance Chapter Troubleshooting and Diagnostics This Chapter. . Lists a number of common problems and the actions to take to correct them. Explains what to do when technical support is needed. 23 Troubleshooting Chart If the LTO standalone fails during POST or operation, use the following table to determine the problem and the action to take: Table 4-1 Troubleshooting Chart Condition The host system does not recognize the LTO standalone unit Possible cause The system may not be configured to recognize the SCSI ID The SCSI ID might not be unique Corrective action Configure the system to see the ID. Change the SCSI ID and reconfigure the system. Make sure the connector on each end of the cable is fully seated and the jackscrews are secure. Install the terminator; make sure the terminator is fully seated and the jackscrews are secure. If the LTO standalone unit is the last or only device on the bus, make sure the terminator is installed on the LTO standalone. If the LTO standalone unit is not the last or only device on the bus, check the cable connections and make sure the terminator is installed at the end of the bus. Limit the SCSI bus length to 12 meters (39. 4 feet) for LVD configurations, and 25 meters (82 feet) for HVD configurations. Check the LTO standalone unit power cable connections with the LTO standalone unit power switch OFF. Make sure the SCSI bus is terminated. The parameters for the SCSI adapter may be incorrect The SCSI cable may be loose The SCSI terminator may not be present or might be loose The SCSI bus may not be correctly terminated The SCSI terminator may not be at the end of the bus, or more than two terminators may be present The SCSI bus might be too long Too many devices might be on the bus The LTO standalone unit does not power up Undetermined fatal or nonfatal errors have been detected. The LTO standalone unit has no power The bus termination or SCSI signal cable connections might be incorrect The AC power source grounding might be incorrect The single-character display A drive fault has occurred presents any character other than Use an AC outlet for the LTO standalone unit on the same AC circuit as the AC line powering the host system. Try to unload the tape and reinitialize the drive by pressing the Unload button or turn the LTO standalone unit power off and then on again. The single-character display will go blank and the drive will try to reinitialize. The single-character display will turn on and display several characters and then go off if the reinitialization succeeds. c. 24 Troubleshooting and Diagnostics The Status LED or the single- The LTO standalone unit has no character display never turns on. power Check the LTO standalone unit power cable connections with the LTO standalone unit power switch OFF.
