9. If the library SCSI ID is the only configuration value you wish to set
at this time, press the
[RESET] button. If you wish to set other
configuration values before you reset the library, continue with the
next section, “Enabling/Disabling Fast Load.”
Enabling/Disabling Fast Load
Verify that the Fast Load feature is turned
OFF.
NOTE Some client software does not support the Fast Load feature. Consult
with your system administrator before enabling this feature.
The Fast Load feature adjusts the robot’s timing during cartridge mount
operations. With the Fast Load feature enabled, the robot will load a tape
into a drive and then immediately perform its next task, not waiting for
the tape drive to complete its mounting cycle. With the Fast Load feature
disabled, the robot will wait at the drive location until the tape is fully
mounted before beginning its next task.
You can enable/disable the Fast Load feature from the
Library
Configuration
menu. To set this value:
1. At the
Library Configuration menu, press the arrow button until the
cursor underscores
FAST LOAD.
2. Press the
[SELECT] button. An editing screen appears.
3. Use the arrow keys to select
[OFF].
4. When the screen displays your desired settings, press the
[SELECT]
button to save the changes. To abort, press the [MENU] button from
the left-most field.
5. If you have already changed the library’s SCSI ID and are planning to
exit the
Main Configuration menu at this time, you must press the
[RESET] button. If you wish to set other configuration values, continue
with the next section, “Setting the Date.”
