This chapter describes the components and the ordering part numbers for the SL500 Modular Library System.
Some numbers are for ordering the initial library (referred to as ATO).
X-options (upgrades) are kits of material and instructions that allow for the addition of a feature or an upgrade to the library after the base module has been installed.
It is important to note that to add a module, the module above must be fully activated. For example:
To add a drive expansion or cartridge expansion module below a base module, the base module must have 50 (LTO-only) or 42 (mixed-media) active cartridge slots.
Slots must be contiguous. Slots within a lower module will not be recognized unless the upper module is fully activated.
The Hardware Activation utility allows the customer (or a service representative) to install optional features on the library. Instructions for customers to install the hardware activation files are supplied in the SL500 User's Guide. For SL500 hardware upgrade issues, customers should contact Technical Support and create a service request.
Two examples of hardware activations include:
Partitioning
Slot Capacity Upgrades
Activation files are available to the customer at Oracles Software Delivery Cloud located at: https://edelivery.oracle.com/. The site contains downloads for all licensable Oracle products.
The figure below shows an example of the Hardware Activation files that might be available to download by a customer.
Once the file is downloaded, the customer (or service representative) can install the file through a session in the Library Console.
The file is a digitally signed image (.img) file containing one or more activation files for the features customers have purchased. Each activation file has a unique sequence number. The sequence number ensures that only one instance of an activation file can be installed on a library at a time.
SL500 hardware activation files are cumulative. When you install a new file, the included features are added to the features already installed on the library. These files do not expire.
For parts, such as slots, that require an activation file, the file can be downloaded from Oracles Software Delivery Cloud at: https://edelivery.oracle.com/

Tape drives must be ordered separately from the library. The table below lists the part numbers for tape drives that can be ordered with the initial purchase of the SL500 library.
The table below lists the upgrade or X-options available.
|
Note: You must download the activation files for all part numbers in the table below before the feature can be used. See "Hardware Activation Files" or the SL500 Users Guide for more details. |
Table 7-3 LTO-Only - Library and Module Upgrades (X-options)
LTO-only DEM activation: Up to three 1/3 files can be ordered. If this is the last module, the first two 1/3 files add 26 slots each and the third adds 25 slots. If there is a module below, increments are 28, 28, and 28.
Table 7-4 Mixed Media - Library and Module Upgrades (X-options)
Mixed-media DEM activation: Up to three 1/3 files can be ordered. If this is the last module, slot counts increment by 21 for each 1/3 file. If there is a module below, increments are 24, 23, 23.
The following tables list the part numbers for the LTO tape drives and conversion trays. The conversion trays allow the client to take a tape drive from another StorageTek library and place it in an SL500 tray.
|
Note: All StorageTek LTO-5 tape drives ship with the drive hardware required to support Oracle Key Manager (OKM) encryption. StorageTek LTO4 drives can be selected to ship encryption ready. To use OKM encryption, customers must purchase the Encryption Activation product for each drive intended to work with OKM and upgrade the drive firmware to the latest release. |

Notes:
Cabinets come equipped with two domestic or international power cords for the PDUs. However, you must order the correct number of power cables that run between each module's power supply and the PDU. For example, if your US/Canada library contains a Base Module and one Drive Expansion Module, order two cables (PWRCORD10187055-Z); if this is a duplicate power configuration, you must order four cables.
This is a harmonic no plug cord for Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Holland, Norway, Sweden, and Switzerland.

The following table lists the part number to order a redundant power supply for the base module or drive expansion module.
If something within the AC power source or supply fails, the second power supply provides power to the robotics and library electronics until the problem can be fixed. For redundancy, this power supply should be connected to a separate branch circuit. Make sure that you also order additional power cables, connected between the redundant supplies and the power distribution unit (PDU).
You can order a rack from Oracle or from another vendor. The following table lists the part numbers and feature codes.

Notes:
PDU specifications for both racks: Two 240 VAC PDUs, 20 A, IEC C13 receptacles, IEC C20 input with current meter, mounted at left rear of enclosure (viewed from the rear).
This rack offers added strength for installation of auxiliary equipment (disks, servers). The SL500 library and auxiliary equipment can be shipped installed within this cabinet.
For cabinets or racks with a depth beyond 80.0 cm (31.5 in.) but not exceeding 94 cm (37 in.), rear support extensions for EZ Install modules are available. For each module, you must contact Technical Support and order an optional accessory kit part 419930101, which contains the following:
4 screws, part 10207301
Right extension, part 4198851xx
Left extension, part 4198853xx
Partitioning requires a hardware activation file which can be downloaded from Oracles Software Delivery Cloud at: https://edelivery.oracle.com/. Refer to the SL500 User's Guide for installation procedures.
The following table lists the part numbers to change the library interface. (Available as X-Option only)
An optional local touch screen operator panel can be mounted on the front of the library. This is a panel-mounted personal computer with a flat screen display and touchable interface—no mouse or keyboard is needed. The panel can be installed on the door, either in the bottom section of the base module or the middle section of the top expansion module.
The following table lists the part number to order the local operator panel.
The following sections provide information about the different interface cables available. When you order cables, keep this in mind:
Riser cables can be used in computer rooms. Riser cable materials are not classified according to flammability or toxic gas emissions.
Plenum cables are designed for installation in air ducts and manufactured to meet UL standards for flammability to produce little smoke.
The library uses Ethernet cables for TCP/IP connections. The following table lists the Ethernet cables available.
Two gigabit (50-micron) fiber-optic cables are generally orange in color with LC connectors. LC connectors are the industry standard for all two gigabit Fibre Channel devices such as LTO tape drives. Both the library and tape drive interfaces use LC connectors. Do not use 62.5 micron cables.
The following table lists the part numbers for the two gigabit fibre-optic cables.

You may choose to separate the control path and the data paths when planning for a SCSI installation.
The control path transfers commands for library robotic operations.
The data path transfers data to and from the tape drives.
At least one initiator (a server) and one target (a tape drive) must be on a bus. Depending on the type of SCSI implementation, you may have up to 16 devices connected to the same SCSI bus.
Important: For the best performance, do not connect more than two tape drives on a single SCSI bus (called daisy-chaining).
The following table lists the part numbers for the SCSI universal interface cables.
