Checking the Firmware Revision
Before downloading new firmware, check your current firmware
revisions, and compare them to the latest available revisions at
www.hp.com/go/support.

If the library is in a partial availability state due to a firmware mismatch,
new firmware must be downloaded to resolve the condition. (See
Partial
Availability State
on page 4-8.)
1.
Ensure the library is powered on.
2.
Use the following menu from the front panel:
3.
From the
Firmware Revisions
menu, use
[More]
to view the drive
firmware revisions.
You can also check your current firmware revisions via the remote
management card:
1.
Enter the designated IP address into the web browser to launch the
Web-Based Library Administrator pages. (See
Using the Remote
Management Card
on page 3-9.)
2.
Select the
[Report]
tab.
3.
Scroll down to the
Firmware Revisions
section of the page to view your
library and drive firmware revisions.

Ensure that your backup software does not
SCSI reserve
the library, as
this can prevent a firmware download.
