Your HP StorageWorks SDLT 600 tape drive
Your HP StorageWorks SDLT 600 tape drive has three LEDs (light emitting diodes) on the front
panel, which indicate drive status, and an eject button. The LEDs provide useful
troubleshooting information. See also “Understanding the LEDs” on page 37. See page 19
for more information about using the eject button in normal operation.
Front panel LEDs
There are three LEDs as illustrated in the diagram. (See Figure 8.)
Drive Density - left, green/red
On, green: blank or SDLT 600 formatted Super DLTtape II inserted
On, red: blank or SDLT 220/320 formatted Super DLTtape I cartridge inserted
Off: no cartridge inserted
Flashing-off repeated pattern: the drive is in OBDR mode
Drive Status - middle. green
On: the drive is ready for use
Off: the drive power is off or there was a failure during self-test
Flashing: the drive is busy
Cleaning Required - right, yellow
On: cleaning is required
Off: the drive does not require cleaning
Flashing-off repeated pattern: the drive is in OBDR mode
Eject button
Use the eject button to eject the tape cartridge from the drive. When you press the button, the
drive completes any active writing of data to the tape, then ejects the cartridge.
An
overtemp
condition exists when the measured tape path temperature reaches 50
o
C.
When this condition is detected, the tape cartridge is rewound, unloaded, and ejected from
the drive. SCSI status will indicate the drive is in the over temperature condition.
