DISPATCH INSTRUCTIONS
- WHAT SKILLS DOES THE FIELD ENGINEER/ADMINISTRATOR NEED:
Familiarity with the tape drive to be replaced

- TIME ESTIMATE: 30 minutes

- TASK COMPLEXITY: 0

FIELD ENGINEER/ADMINISTRATOR INSTRUCTIONS:
- PROBLEM OVERVIEW:
Desktop tape drive needs to be removed/replaced

- WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE
RESOLUTION ACTIVITY?:
The drive should be taken offline from the host and the drive should be unloaded and powered off

- WHAT ACTION DOES THE FIELD ENGINEER/ADMINISTRATOR NEED TO TAKE:

Removing the Tape Drive:
1. Make drive offline to OS and Software Application.
2. Eject any loaded tapes from the drive so that the drive is empty
3. Power the drive down.
4. Remove the power and SCSI, SAS, or USB cables from the back of the drive.
5. Note the SCSI jumper settings on the back of the drive to be used with replacement drive.

Installing the Tabletop Drive
Tabletop drive installation consists of connecting SCSI bus or USB and power cables.
Prior to installing drive, make sure all the jumpers match the back of the drive being replaced.

USB Cable
The USB cable can simply be disconnected and then reconnected when the replacement drive is installed. The USB cable should support USB 2.0 devices.

SAS Cables
The SAS cable can simply be disconnected and then reconnected when the replacement drive is installed.
Note: The LTO3 and LTO4 SAS drives are SAS1 (3GB SAS) devices and the LTO5 SAS drives are SAS2 (6GB SAS) devices so the correct cable type should be used.

SCSI Cables
The SCSI bus cable leading from the host adapter can be connected to either of the connectors. If the tape unit is the last device on the bus, then a terminator should be installed on the open connector. If the bus continues from the tape drive to another SCSI device, then install a SCSI bus cable between the open connector and the next device on the bus.
1. Prior to connecting the drive to the host computer, make sure the drive and computer are turned
OFF.
2. If you are connecting several devices to the SCSI bus, connect only the drive to the host computer at this
time. Confirm that the host computer and drive are communicating correctly before adding additional
devices.
3. The SCSI bus must be terminated at each end. Depending on the terminator supplied (Quantum 68-pin
LVD/single-ended terminator with part number 12-60308-01 or Quantum 68-pin HVD differential
terminator with part number 12-41769-01); snap the wire cable clamps into place or tighten the screws
to secure the terminator.
- If the drive is the only device connected to the SCSI bus, attach the SCSI terminator to one of
the connectors on the back of the drive.
- If the drive is one of several devices connected to the SCSI bus, and it is the last device
connected to the SCSI bus, attach the SCSI terminator to one of the connectors on the back of the
drive.
4. Align the appropriate SCSI cable to its matching connector on the drive. Carefully connect the cable, to
avoid bending or damaging the connector pins.
Check the SCSI cable and termination connections and ensure that they are attached correctly and
seated firmly.
5. Snap the wire cable clamps into place to secure the cables.

AC Power Cable
An AC power cord is supplied with each tabletop unit. Carefully inspect the power cord and ensure that the cord is the appropriate cord for your country or region based on the criteria below.

The AC power cord used with the tabletop unit must meet the following criteria:
- The power cord should be a minimum of 18/3 AWG, 60ÃÂ°C, type SJT or SVT.
   UL and CSA certified cordage rated for use at 250 VAC with a current rating that is at least 125% of the
   current rating of the product.
- The AC plug must be terminated in a grounding-type male plug designed for use in your country or region.
   It must also have marks showing certification by an agency acceptable in your country or region.
- The tabletop unit cord connector must be an IEC type CEE-22 female connector.
- The cord must be no longer than 4.5 meters (14.5 feet).
- The cord must be FCC compliant with emissions specifications.

The power supply of the tabletop unit has an auto-sensing feature; no adjustment or switch setting changes are required for different AC sources.
Connect one end of the AC cord into the power connector on the back of the tabletop drive; connect the other end of the cord to the AC outlet.

Confirming the Installation
To confirm the installation, power on the drive and the host computer and once the host computer is back up verify that the drive can be seen from the host.

Once the new drive is installed, pack the old drive into the shipping material and return to Oracle.
