Clean the Drive

■ Clean the Drive

When the clean indicator on the operator panel (Figure 1-12 on page 1-11 or

Figure 1-13 on page 1-13 for the CSL) lights, it means that read/write errors

occurred or a specific length of tape has passed over the read/write head. The

9840 Tape Drive write/read head assembly should be cleaned by a cleaning

tape cartridge as soon as possible.

CAUTION:

Do not wet-clean (chemical-clean) a 9840 Tape Drive.

Do not clean the drive unless the clean indicator lights. Cleaning more

frequently might damage the read/write head.

Clean the drive with the drive offline or online. Use the 9840 cleaning cartridge

with the letter U in the media ID area (a dry-cleaning cartridge).

To clean the tape drive:

1. Unload the data cartridge tape if necessary.

2. Insert the cleaning cartridge in the drive.

Notes:

1. A CHK xxxx message means a cleaning cartridge failure, where the

notation “xxxx

” is a four-character hexadecimal fault symptom code

(FSC

). Try a different cleaning cartridge.

2. A 9840 cleaning cartridge is limited to 100 cleanings. If the drive

ejects the cleaning cartridge and displays Exp CLcart, the

cartridge is used up. Discard the cleaning cartridge and use a new

one.

3. Observe:

a. The green

activity indicator flashes to indicate cleaning is occurring.

b. The cleaning cartridge ejects and the

clean indicator turns off when

cleaning is complete.

4. Remove the cleaning cartridge.
