Scalar 50 Tape Library

Scalar 50

Quick Start Guide

Introduction

The Scalar 50 tape library is an automated storage and retrieval device

consisting of up to two full height tape drives or four half height tape drives

and up to 32 SDLT cartridges or 38 LTO tape cartridges (see figure 1).

This instruction uses the following conventions:

This document explains how to unpack the Scalar 50 tape library and install

it in a standard 19 in. rack. Once the library is unpacked and installed, set

up the library using the instructions in the Scalar 50 User’s Guide PN 81-

81768. This installation procedure will take approximately 4 hours to

complete.

Note: Notes emphasize important information related to the main

topic.

Caution: Cautions indicate potential hazards to equipment and are

included to prevent damage to equipment.

Warning: Warnings indicate potential hazards to personal safety and

are included to prevent injury.

Note: It is recommended to review the entire document prior to

beginning the installation.

Choosing a Location

When choosing an installation site for the Scalar 50, consider the following requirements:

•Rack Space Requirements

•Environmental Conditions

Rack Space Requirements 0Table 1 contains the rack requirements for the Scalar 50 tape library.

Table 1 Rack Requirements

Environmental Conditions 0The installation site must have the following environmental conditions:

• Humidity: 20%-80% non-condensing

• Temperature: 10°C-35°C (50°F-95°F)

• Altitude: -500 to 10,000 feet (-152 to 3048 meters)

Dimensions Scalar 50

Depth 31 in (78.7 cm)

Width 19 in (48.3 cm)

Height 6.75 in (17 cm), 4U

Weight 52 lbs (23.6 kg)

Air Clearance Open 4 in (10 cm) behind unit

for proper air flow

Preparing for the Installation 3

Scalar 50 Tape Library

These environmental conditions apply when the Scalar 50 tape library is in operation.

Preparing for the Installation

Before you begin the installation procedure in this section, make the following

preparations as described in this section:

•Providing Necessary Tools

•Taking ESD Precautions

Providing Necessary

Tools 0Provide the following tools for unpacking and installing the Scalar 50 tape library:

• #1 Phillips screwdriver

• #2 Phillips screwdriver

• #1 flat blade screwdriver

• Allen wrench (2.5mm and 3mm) included in accessory kit

• Antistatic wrist strap included in accessory kit

Taking ESD Precautions 0Some components within the Scalar 50 tape library contain static-sensitive parts. To avoid

damaging these parts while performing installation procedures, always observe the

following precautions:

• Keep the Scalar 50 turned off during all installation procedures.

• Use an antistatic wrist strap (included in the accessory kit).

• Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers until ready for

installation. Look for the ESD sticker to identify static sensitive parts.

• Avoid touching connectors and other components.

Note: For additional specifications, refer to the Quantum Scalar 50 Series User’s Guide

(PN 81-81768)

Note: Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have lower relative

humidity and are more likely to produce static electricity.

4Unpacking the Scalar 50 Tape Library

Scalar 50 Quick Start Guide

Unpacking the Scalar 50 Tape Library

This section explains how to unpack the Scalar 50 tape library and move it to its final

installation location.

By following these instructions, you help ensure that the system will continue to be

safeguarded after it arrives at the installation site.

Unpack and remove the following components from the packing materials (see figure 2):

1Remove the accessories kit and set it aside. The accessories kit contains all of the parts

necessary for installing the Scalar 50 in a rack..

2With the help of a second person, lift the library chassis up and out of the shipping

carton.

3Place the library on a table approximately waist high.

Note: Inspect the outer library packaging for damage. If there is any damage evident

on the library packaging, do not continue with the installation and contact

Quantum customer support.

Note: Unpack the library as close to the installation location as possible.

Warning: At least two people are required to move the library chassis.

Caution: Lift the library chassis at the sides. Avoid putting the weight of the

library chassis on the front bezel.

6Installing the Library

Scalar 50 Quick Start Guide

Installing the Library

Installing a Scalar 50 tape library in a rack consists of the following steps:

•Locating the Mounting Position

•Installing the Library

•Initial Configuration

Locating the Mounting

Position 0The Scalar 50 tape library is designed to fit in a standard 19 inch wide rack.

It is important to the library installation to locate the hole pattern in the rack rails and

install clip nuts if required (see figure 3). The library must be installed at the beginning of

the hole pattern to ensure that the library does not interfere with other devices in the rack.

See table 2 for information on common rack hole types.

Table 2 Rack Hole Types Figure Description

Note: The rails within the rack have a hole pattern that repeats throughout the rail. X

marks the screw positions. Install nut clips (included in the accessory kit) on the rails if

necessary.

Square rack holes are the most common type of rack

holes. They can accept either cage nuts which mount

from the back of the rail or clip nuts which clip on from

the side of the rack rail.

Through holes require clip nuts to accept mounting

hardware.

Threaded holes require neither cage or clip nuts to

accept mounting hardware.

Installing the Library 0Installing the Scalar 50 tape library consists of the following steps:

•Installing the Rack Mount Shelves

•Installing the Library Chassis

•Cabling the Library

The following table describes the hardware necessary for installing the Scalar 50 in a rack.

These parts are located in the accessory kit.

Warning: If the rack is empty at the time of installation, do NOT install the Scalar 50

tape library too high in the rack. The weight of the library may cause the

rack to become “top heavy” and unstable if installed in the top of an

empty rack. Begin installing the Scalar 50 tape library from the bottom of

the rack if more than one library is installed.

Note: If this is an upgrade to an existing library system, see Multiple Library Stacks

on page 36.
