Exporting a Tape Cartridge
Use Export to remove tape cartridges from your library through the Mailbox. Export takes a specific
tape cartridge and places it in the Mailbox so that you can remove it from your library. To use this
procedure, the Mailbox cannot be configured as storage.
Path: Main menu > Command > Mailbox > Export
To export tape cartridges
1. From the Main menu, select Command and then select Mailbox. Select Export.
2. Select OK.
The panel shows a list of tape cartridges in the library.
3. Press Select to begin choosing the tape cartridge(s) you want to export.
4. Use Next, Select, and Pages to choose the tape cartridge(s) you want to export.
Highlighted cartridges will be exported. You can only export as many tape cartridges as your
Mailbox holds.
5. When complete, press OK.
Manually Removing Tape Cartridges
If you need to remove a large number of tape cartridges, you probably will want to manually remove
them. If you only have a small number of tape cartridges to remove, use the Export command as
it does not interfere with library operations. To do this procedure, the front door must be unlocked
or you must have the key.
To manually remove tape cartridges
1. Place the library in an offline state.
See Using Commands that Require an Offline State on page 5-38.
2. If the library door is locked, unlock the door. Open the door, and remove the tape cartridges.
3. Close the door. (Lock it if necessary.)
The library executes the TEACH and INVENTORY procedures.
Working with Cleaning Cartridges
The AutoClean menu allows you to import and export cleaning cartridges. It also provides you
access to cleaning cartridge information.
