Installing the Tape Library
Step 4: Mount the Library in a Rack (optional)
Mounting the Library
To mount the tape library in a rack, you must:
• First, attach the front and back mounting brackets to the rack slides.
• Next, attach the rack slides to the rack.
• Finally, attach the tape library to the rack slides.
These steps are explained in detail in the following sections.
Attach the Mounting Brackets
1. IMPORTANT: Lower the rack’s leveller feet using a 1/2-inch open-end wrench,
and extend the rack’s antitip rail.
WARNING Failure to extend the antitip rail could result in personal injury and/or damage
to the tape library if the rack tips over.
2. Pull the rack slide members out to the fully extended position. (The slides
should “click” into a locked position.)
