List of Hardware Tests
The script runs the tests listed in the following table. These tests
can take a long time to complete if the storage device is large.
Example
Make sure all the libraries are connected to the system and
running.
Step 1. Log in as root.

Name
Definition
Picker Istat Performs library inventory and sees if it has
changed
Move* Checks if picker can move media and read
barcode label
Drive Configured Checks if drives are properly configured
* AMASS makes sure each drive can move media by loading and
unloading the last volume (for SCSI-attached libraries) or loading and
unloading the last barcoded-platter (for network-attached libraries) to the
drive.
The “last” volume or barcoded-platter is defined as what is listed by the
medialist utility. This last volume should be the Backup Volume. Just
make sure this volume is not a cleaning volume because a cleaning
volume does not return a “tape loaded status” to AMASS and thus
install_tests will fail.
If you have more than one library configured for AMASS, this test is done
on each library.
