Installing a 5175 Open-Reel Tape Subsystem
A 5175 tape subsystem is an open-reel tape drive in a module on a modular storage
system pedestal as shown in Figure 7-1.
Tape products can be installed by customers when shipped as a self-contained module
(or as two modules) on a pedestal. Of the 517x tape subsystems, only the 5175 tape
subsystem is customer installable. Other maintenance or changes to an installed 5175
tape subsystem require a trained service provider. Likewise, a trained service provider
must install other 517x tape subsystem configurations.
1. To unpack and install a 5175 tape subsystem, you need:
•
Small slotted screwdriver
•
A 15/16-inch (24-mm) or adjustable, open-end wrench
