Cartridge Management
Recovery Moves
Note –
This feature is available starting with SL500 firmware version 1026 and
SL Console version 2.40.
Using the recovery move diagnostic function, you can move a cartridge from one
location to another. For example:
■
You can return a cartridge to its original location from a CAP cell, drive, or another
storage cell location.
■
You might decide to group cartridges by data type or to move them closer to their
assigned drives.
■
You can eject a cleaning or diagnostic cartridge that has expired.
■
You can enter a new cleaning or diagnostic cartridge and move it to a reserved
storage cell.
A cartridge currently in a storage cell can be moved only to a CAP, a reserved cell, or
another storage cell, not to a drive. A cartridge currently in a drive, CAP, or reserved
cell can be moved to any other unoccupied location in the library. See the following
procedures for complete details:

Before moving any cartridge, it is helpful to generate a Cartridge Summary Report,
for details. This report helps you determine where cartridges are currently located and
which storage cells are unoccupied.
