Retrieving Tape Drive Sled Logs
Administrators can retrieve tape drive sled logs. Tape drive sled log
information can be used to help troubleshoot library, tape drive sled, and
tape drive issues. You can use the Retrieve Drive Sled Log screen to select
the appropriate tape drive sled.
Details on retrieving tape drive sled log files include:
• Tape drive sled logs adhere to the following naming convention:
UDS_ID_SN.LOG, where ID identifies the tape drive sled coordinate
location within the library and SN identifies the tape drive sled serial
number.
• You can select the interface type (SCSI, SAS, or FC) of the tape drive
sled from which you want to retrieve logs.
•A Save dialog allows you to specify where you want to save the tape
drive sled log files file.
For detailed, step-by-step instructions, see your library's online Help. To
access the online Help system, click the Help icon at the top right of the
Web client or operator panel user interface.
You cannot retrieve tape drive sled logs from the operator panel. The
path to open the appropriate screen is as follows:
• From the Web client, select Tools > Drive Operations.
Note: Bold column headings in the table can be sorted. For example,
selecting the Location column heading will sort by location
coordinates.
