Diagnostic Tests
The following tables describe the tape library diagnostic tests.
CAUTION
Some diagnostic tests can result in a tape cartridge being placed into an
improper storage slot. If this happens, the tape library file system is no
longer accurate.

Diagnostic Tests
Test

Number
Description
Check
Inventory
10
Physically scans the entire library to determine
which slots contain tapes and if the drives contain
tapes.
Recalibrate Library
5
Performs the power-up self-tests. Each test runs
one time per test loop. This test recalibrates the
mechanics and clears any hard error.
Test
Vertical Motion
12
Moves the vertical assembly to the bottom of the
library, then to the top, while the transport moves
around its lateral range. Upon completion of these
moves, the transport assembly then stops.
NOTE:
This test is functional in all library
models, but only moves upward in multi-level
libraries.
Test
Lateral Motion
13
Moves the transport assembly to a random slot.
No tape is required.
Test Magazine Swaps
15
Moves a tape from a random slot to an empty,
random slot, and then returns it to the original
location.
Wellness Test
16
Moves a tape from a random slot to an empty
drive, repeats the process until all drives are full,
and then returns all tapes to their original slots.
