For example, if your library has 4 drives installed, you must have 4 or more data cartridges in the library prior to the start of the test. If there are fewer data cartridges than drives in the library, an error message "Slot Empty" will occur, and the test will not complete successfully. The media type must be compatible with the drive type. Otherwise, an error message "Incompatible Media" will occur and the test will fail. 5-60 Dell PowerVault TL2000 Tape Library and TL4000 Tape Library User's Guide
