Operations Using Ultra Density Optical (UDO) disks UDO media is an integral part of the storage process. This section describes the following: ■ Choosing a disk type, page 14 ■ Labeling a disk cartridge, page 15 ■ Write-protecting an UDO disk, page 16 ■ Maintaining UDO media, page 20 Note: For UDO media specifications, see “Media specifications” on page 30. Choosing a disk type Two disk types can be used in the standalone UDO drive.
Operations Labeling a disk cartridge Make it a practice to label your UDO disk cartridges. Adhesive labels come with each UDO disk for this purpose (see Figure 3). Caution: In order to avoid damaging the drive and media: Only apply labels to the areas designated in Figure 3. Never place labels over the disk cartridge shutter or open the shutter for any reason. Make sure the media is free of moisture and that all label corners are securely fastened to the media shell.
Operations Write-protecting an UDO disk Each side of an UDO disk can be write-protected. With rewritable disks, this prevents existing files from being altered or erased, and new files from being written to the disk. With WORM disks, existing files cannot be altered or erased regardless of whether or not the disks have been write-protected. However, write-protecting a WORM disk prevents additional files from being written to the disk.
Operations Loading a disk into the drive Insert the disk gently but firmly into the opening on the front panel, shutter end first, and with the side you want to access facing up (A or B). See Figure 5. The drive will automatically pull the disk fully into position.
Operations Ejecting a disk from the drive There are two methods for ejecting disks from the drive. Using the disk eject button From the drive’s front panel, push the eject button located below the disk slot (see Figure 6). Disk eject button Figure 6: Using the disk eject button Manually ejecting disks with power off Note: The procedure for manually ejecting disks should rarely be needed. Before resorting to the manual method, always attempt to eject disks using the disk eject button (see Figure 6).
Operations Disk eject access hole Figure 7: Manually ejecting disks 3. Once engaged, apply force while turning the screw in a clockwise direction. 4. Continue turning the screw until the disk ejects from the drive. Note: After ejecting a disk, the drive remains in eject position until power is restored. At that time, the drive automatically resets itself.
Operations Maintaining UDO media Follow these guidelines to ensure that your UDO disks remain in good condition. 20 ■ Do not open the disk’s shutter and touch the disk surface. ■ Do not store the disk in a dusty location. ■ Do not store the disk in temperatures outside of 5ºC to 55ºC (41ºF to 122ºF). ■ Do not disassemble the disk.
Operations ■ Do not expose the disk to direct sunlight. ■ Do not drop the disk.
Operations Using application software Application software is required to operate the standalone UDO drive. Note: While HP-UX does provide native file system support for UDO media, this support is only for rewritable UDO media. Refer to the “Configuration” chapter in the HP StorageWorks 30ux Standalone UDO Drive Setup Guide that shipped with this product for more information. Supplied UDO driver software MS Windows operating systems do not provide native file system support for UDO media.
Troubleshooting 2 This chapter describes the following: ■ Troubleshooting common problems, page 24 ■ Using HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools, page 26 HP StorageWorks 30ux Standalone UDO Drive User’s Guide 23
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting common problems If the procedures in Table 3 do not address or resolve your problem, visit http://www.hp.com/go/udo for additional assistance, or contact HP technical support (see “Getting help” on page 8). Table 3: Troubleshooting installation Problem Drive will not power on Solution ■ ■ Host computer system does not recognize the drive ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ 24 Check that the power indicator light on the control panel is on.
Troubleshooting Table 3: Troubleshooting installation (Continued) Problem Other SCSI devices no longer work when the drive is installed Solution ■ ■ ■ ■ HP StorageWorks 30ux Standalone UDO Drive User’s Guide Check SCSI ID assignments and resolve any conflicts. Ensure that the SCSI ID for the HBA is different from that of the drive. Check for proper SCSI cabling and termination. Ensure the maximum cable length for the bus has not been exceeded (12 meters for LVDS and 3 meters for SE).
Troubleshooting Using HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools (L&TT) is a robust diagnostic tool for tape mechanisms, tape automation, magneto-optical and UDO products. L&TT provides functionality for firmware downloads, verification of device operation, maintenance procedures, failure analysis, corrective service actions and some utility functions. Seamless integration is provided with HP’s hardware support organization through generating and emailing support tickets.

Glossary Glossary This glossary defines terms used in this guide or related to this product and is not a comprehensive glossary of computer terms. Glossary cartridge A plastic enclosure that contains an optical disk. The cartridge is labeled “A” or “B” to denote separate sides of the optical disk. The optical disk is never removed from the cartridge. driver A program that allows the operating system to communicate with a peripheral device.
Glossary ultra density optical UDO (Ultra Density Optical), like HP's DVD+RW, uses Phase Change technology in order to achieve increased data density on a 130mm disk. Phase Change technology uses a laser to read and write from the active layer on the disk. The recording process uses the laser to heat each data bit to a specific temperature. One temperature allows the bit to form a crystalline (reflective) mark and a different temperature allows the bit to form an amorphous (less reflective) mark.
