Destination library status icon While the device status icon in the Command View VLS status banner indicates the overall VLS device health on other tabs, the icon on the Automigration/Replication tab indicates the status of the destination libraries. A destination library status icon can be one of five states: Error-An error occurred while the system was determining the status of the destination libraries. Unknown-A destination library's operating condition is unknown. Contact HP Technical Support. Normal-All destination libraries are operating normally. Warning-At least one destination library is in a good state while at least one destination library is any state other than good. Warning for All-All destination libraries are in any state other than good. Replacing a library When a library fails, or when the library robotics card must be changed, the replacement will have a different serial number from the original. To assign it the same pools, mapping, etc. as the original: NOTE: While the virtual tapes are in the firesafe, scheduled backups for those tapes will not occur. 1. Make a note of all pool configuration information for pools associated with the library to be replaced. 2. Delete all pools associated with the library (see Deleting a Copy Pool). NOTE: Deleting the pools automatically moves all virtual cartridges from within the pool to the firesafe. 3. Unmanage the physical library to be replaced (see Managing and Unmanaging a Destination Library). 4. Replace the library or robotics card. 5. Manage the new physical library (see Managing and Unmanaging a Destination Library). 6. Manually recreate the storage pools associated with the new library using the information written down at the beginning of this procedure. The virtual tapes that were moved into the firesafe will automatically return to their previous locations. 226 Troubleshooting
