Replace Expired Cleaning Tapes Using the Remote Interface
Use the remote interface to replace cleaning cartridges in the reserved system cells.
- From the remote interface, select Library in the left menu.
- If the library is partitioned, unassign the mailslot before proceeding (see Unassign the Mailslot).
- Right-click on the expired cleaning tape, and move it to the mailslot (see Move Tape Cartridges with the Remote Interface).
- Open the mailslot and remove the expired cleaning tape (see Open the Mailslot).
- Dispose of the expired tape promptly, so that expired tapes are not inadvertently reused.
- Place a new cleaning tape in the mailslot. Then close the mailslot (see Close the Mailslot).
- Move the new cleaning tape from the mailslot to the reserved system slot (see Move Tape Cartridges with the Remote Interface).
