6.14 Inserting and Removing Cartridges

The tape magazine must be removed from the module in order to

insert or remove cartridges. When inserting cartridges, be sure that

the slot intended for use is not already reserved in the system map

for a cartridge in a drive. The best way to avoid conflicts is to

unload the drive, either through the host computer software or by

using the Load/Unload command on the Main Menu, described

later in Section 6.22.
