Cartridge Loading
If you have only one partition enabled, use Bulk Load for the initial setup. Refer to the
Spectra T50e Library User Guide
if you have
more than one partition.
1. Using the stylus, select Menu > General > Import/Export > Bulk Load. Both left-side magazines release.
2.Remove the bottom left magazine and set it on a stable surface. CAUTION! Be careful while handling fully-loaded magazines as they are heavy!
3.
Load the cartridges sequentially starting at slot 1 and continue with the top left-side magazine, if needed. Reinsert the left-side magazine(s) and continue
with the right-side magazines, if needed. See the
Spectra T50e Library User Guide
for information about the expansion slots (slots 48 through 50).
4.Gently push each magazine into the library until it is fully seated and press Stop Importing. The library inventories the cartridges.
AutoInstall (Firmware and Option Keys)
The USB drive that came in your Document Kit (see Unpack and Verify the
Components on page 1) contains the library’s firmware as well as the option
keys that you purchased. Follow these steps to load the firmware and keys.
1. Insert the USB drive in the USB port at the back of the library.
2.Plug the power cord in if it is not already connected.
3.Press the front panel power button for two to three seconds.
4.Wait while the library performs its power-on sequence, which typically
takes six to nine minutes.
During the AutoInstall process, the library upgrades the firmware from
the USB drive, reboots itself, and automatically installs the option keys
during the remainder of the power-on sequence.
Important! Do not remove the USB drive until after the Login screen
appears, but do not leave the USB drive in the library after the
installation.
BlueScale User Interface Log In
After the power-on sequence completes, the login screen displays.
1. Using the stylus, touch (to select) the User box and type su.
2.Leave the password field blank, and select Login.
3.Wait for the initialization process to complete.
4.Close the keyboard by selecting its icon with the stylus.
Note: If you are prompted to calibrate the touch screen, follow the
instructions on the screen. You must use the stylus for the
calibration procedure to complete successfully.
Partition Creation Follow these steps to allow the library to automatically
create a partition.
1. Using the stylus, select Menu > Configuration > Partitions >
Automatically create a partition > New.
2.Use the wizard to create the partition, and then choose one option:
Save Library Configuration to USB (recommended)
Save Library Configuration to autosupport@spectralogic.com
(recommended)
Don’t Save Library Configuration (not recommended)
3.Select Next and Save.
To manually create partitions, see the Spectra T50e Library User Guide
for instructions.
Host System Reboot Follow these steps:
1. Ensure that your SCSI HBA BIOS has LUN support enabled.
2.Reboot your host system, if needed.
3.Install your backup application, if it is not already installed.
4.Configure the application to work with the Spectra T50e library.
Go to www.spectralogic.com/downloads to download device drivers
