Configuring and Operating the Jukebox NOTE Before you connect the optical disk jukebox to the host, verify that it is supported by the host. For the current list of which host systems support the SCSI-bus jukebox, refer to the RW551/RW552 Product Service Plan. Connecting an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) To fully protect against data loss in the event of a power failure, Digital recommends the use of an uninterruptable power supply (UPS). The UPS must be a central UPS used by the entire computer system. NOTE This jukebox does not have a UPS connector.

Medium Optical Disk (RW551/RW552) Library

3–4 EK–MOL80–SV. B01 If a power failure occurs during a write operation, the UPS must be able to continue to supply power to the jukebox/computer system until the data in the optical drive's buffer can be written to an optical disk. For the best protection, the customer should choose the type of UPS that provides a communication link between the UPS and the computer system. With this type of connection, the computer system is informed when power is being supplied by the UPS and can issue commands to automatically write any data from buffers to disk. The computer then refuses any additional write commands until regular power is restored. CAUTION If the UPS does not provide a communication link between the UPS and the computer system, an operator will have to shut down the computer system (stop any new writes) before the UPS battery power is drained. If the UPS is connected to the jukebox, the following power requirements must be met: Table 3–1 UPS Power Requirements Volt-Amp Watts 125 Volt-Amps (typical) 75 Watts (typical) 180 Volt-Amps (max.) 110 Watts (max.) Connecting the SCSI Cable to the Jukebox The jukebox connects to the host computer with a high-density SCSI interface cable, and may be configured to use either a single-ended or a differential SCSI interface. The SCSI interface type is selected using the SCSI interface switch on the left side panel of the jukebox (see Figure 3–2). The total allowable length of the SCSI cable depends on which interface type is selected. Refer to Table 3–2 for allowable SCSI cable lengths.

Chapter 3. Product Configuration and Operation

EK–MOL80–SV. B01 3–5 Table 3–2 SCSI Cable Length Limitations Interface Type Allowable Cable Length Single-Ended SCSI 6 meters Differential SCSI 15 meters NOTE Because of signal delays inside the jukebox, the allowable external cable length for differential SCSI interface mode is limited to 15 meters instead of the 25 meters typically available with a differential SCSI bus. There are two methods of connecting the jukebox to the host computer: • as the only peripheral device connected to your computer with a SCSI cable. • as one of a number of peripheral devices connected to the computer with a SCSI cable. Connecting Power 1. Check to make sure that the standby power switch located on the right end of the jukebox is OFF. NOTE The switch located on the right end of the jukebox, frequently referred to as a "power switch" only supplies the logic switch to electronics in the power distribution PCA to enable the 5/12V supplies. It does not physically control input power. 2. Remove the panel on the lower left end of the jukebox. Plug the power cord into the AC line connector located on the bottom of the interface module. (Figure 3–2.) 3. Replace the panel on the lower left end of the jukebox.

Troubleshooting and Diagnostics

This chapter contains troubleshooting information about the SCSI-connect. Operation/Installation Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Using the Control Panel and Observation When there are errors in autochanger movements, two main approaches are available to get information and to run exerciser tests. The approach usually depends on whether the error encountered was a hard error or whether it was a soft (intermittent, recoverable) error. • Troubleshooting Using the Control Panel and Observation - This method is usually used in situations where you have a hard error. • Troubleshooting Through the SCSI Bus - This method is used in situations where you have a intermittent, recoverable) error. Error information and logs accessed through the control panel are summarized. By knowing how the autochanger operates and using the summarized information from the control panel display, there is enough information to troubleshoot many problems that result in a hard error.

4–2 EK–MOL80–SV. B01 The Autochanger Lists the First "Possibles" At power on, and after every failed move, the autochanger automatically runs an initialization sequence that comprehensively tests the autochanger. If a hard failure occurs, a list of possible FRUs (Field Replaceable Units) that may have been at fault is returned. Figure 4–1 The Autochanger Returns Suspect FRUs NOTE This test sequence returns possible failed FRUs only if there has been a hard failure. The test sequence will NOT find an failure from which a recovery was made. Evaluating Results of the Internal FRU Isolation Similar to treating symptoms rather than the real problem, the suspect FRUs given by the FRU isolation procedure may actually mask the root cause of the problem. The hard move error that caused the autochanger to run the FRU isolation test may have only been a PRODUCT of the actual problem. Blindly and repeatedly replacing the suspect FRU(s) will not solve the problem.

Chapter 4. Troubleshooting and Diagnostics

EK–MOL80–SV. B01 4–3 Figure 4–2 How Service Views the Suspect FRUs If you consider the suspect FRU as a POINTER to the problem area rather than the problem itself, an educated visual inspection, with perhaps some cable and connector wiggling, should reveal the real problem. A good visual inspection requires an understanding of how the autochanger acts under normal operation. To understand what the autochanger does in normal operation, run the various movements available from the control panel and watch it closely. Reading the descriptions in the Micro-move table in this chapter will also help you understand the composition of its movements. Retrieving Performance Information 1.

Getting Error Information Through the SCSI Bus When there are errors in autochanger movements, two main approaches are available to get information and to run exerciser tests. The approach usually depends on whether the error encountered was a hard error or whether it was a soft or intermittent error. • Troubleshooting Using the Control Panel and Observation - This method is usually used in situations where you have a hard error. • Troubleshooting Through the SCSI Bus - This method is used in situations where you have a soft or intermittent error. Using data on the SCSI bus, you can determine exactly what the autochanger was doing when a failure occurred; all the way down to the macro-move and micromoves. Also, through the Log Sense and Request Sense commands, you can gather information on the optical drive; which cannot be done through the control panel. An external utility is needed to read the data on the SCSI bus. A diagnostic utility called DOSDASS4 provides this capability. If required, the DODASS4 utility and instructions can be obtained from the Digital Customer Support Center. A PC with a 154X Adaptec controller is required to use the DOSDASS4 utility.

Chapter 4. Troubleshooting and Diagnostics

EK–MOL80–SV. B01 4–7 Figure 4–3 Information and Tests Through the SCSI Bus Refer to the following information when troubleshooting through the SCSI bus: Offline Diagnostics for Hewlett-Packard Optical Products (reference Appendix A for ordering information). This guide contains information about Hewlett-Packard's offline diagnostic, DOSDASS4, which can be used to access the above information through the SCSI bus. In addition, refer to the following tables, also contained in this guide: • Request Sense Command Tables – These tables show error information and information about the state of the autochanger after an error has occurred, which is returned when a Request Sense command is issued through the SCSI bus. • Log Sense Command Tables – These tables show the error and move information which is stored in various logs during autochanger operation and when running internal diagnostics. Diagnostics Several diagnostic programs and tests are available for the optical disk jukebox. This chapter gives information on how to run these tests/programs or where to find this information

Medium Optical Disk (RW551/RW552) Library

4–8 EK–MOL80–SV. B01 The two types of diagnostics available for the jukebox are: • Offline Diagnostics - Hewlett-Packard offers a diagnostic program called DOSDASS4 for use with the optical disk jukebox. These diagnostics can be obtained from the Digital Customer Support Center at CXO. This PC-based diagnostic program allows you to fully test the autochanger mechanism or the optical drive mechanism. • Internal Diagnostics - These tests are run from the control panel and are under the ADMIN selection. These tests are fully explained later in this chapter. Offline Diagnostics A diagnostic utility called DOSDASS4 is available to authorized service organizations from Hewlett-Packard for accessing the jukebox through the SCSI bus or from the Digital Customer Support Center at CXO. DOSDASS4 fully exercises the standalone multifunction optical drives and the autochanger. CAUTION DO NOT CYCLE POWER during any troubleshooting until you are sure the system SCSI bus is INACTIVE and will REMAIN INACTIVE. Removing power while the bus is active can cause data loss and/or indeterminate bus states. Check the host system reference manuals for information on checking the status of the SCSI bus. Operation and Installation Error information is listed in Table 4–2.

4–14 EK–MOL80–SV. B01 Recovery from Hardware Errors When a hardware failure occurs, a message is displayed on the control panel. If the failure occurs during the power-on sequence, DEVICE FAILED is displayed. If the failure occurs when loading a disk you may see LOAD ERROR or FULL. If a failure occurs while you are running a test, TEST FAILED is displayed. When you press ENTER, the autochanger displays information about the hardware failure that is held in the error log. The autochanger firmware can detect broken components such as a dead motor, but if failures are due to marginal or random problems, the failing component may induce errors in other components. For example, if any portion of the electronics becomes intermittent or if friction increases on a part, different components of the autochanger may appear to fail at varied points as the autochanger runs its code. This results in many different error codes. The following table shows the hardware error codes possible and recovery procedures for specific hardware errors.

Optical Disk Cleaning–All Jukeboxes CAUTION Data may be lost as a result of scratches introduced during optical disk cleaning. Cleaning optical disks is not a preventive maintenance procedure and should not be attempted unless disks are obviously dirty. Cleaning a disk is a last resort to recover data. Every effort should be made to instruct the customer of the importance of placing the jukeboxes at locations that do not have a high concentration of airborne dust. A clean environment is especially important if the customer's applications cause optical disks to remain in the drives with the drive's shutter open.

Chapter 4. Troubleshooting and Diagnostics

EK–MOL80–SV. B01 4–39 A failure to read a disk may result from: • hardware failure • contamination of the disk surface • contamination of the drive objective lens In a service situation where contaminated disks may be a problem, ensure first that failures are not caused by another, perhaps a hardware failure. On an otherwise working drive, check to see that the most current firmware code level is being used and/or that all applicable service notes have been done. The following are recommendations for preventing contamination of disks and the disk drive: • Place the jukebox away from high traffic areas. • Do not leave a disk in the drive for extended periods of time if possible. • Do not use the jukebox in “dirty” environments. NOTE SCSI-connectjukeboxes If the problem appeared as loss of performance and cleaning the disk solved the problem, another couple of steps must be done to regain performance using that disk. As performance was declining because of read/write problems, the disk was probably becoming fragmented through excessive “sparing”. To regain performance, the data on each side of the disk should be stored, each side of the disk reformatted, and the data restored back on the disk. LAN-connect jukeboxes No additional actions need to be taken. The server software automatically moves the data to a new disk and removes the effects of sparing. It does this through the Automated LAN Jukebox Maintenance program.

4–40 EK–MOL80–SV. B01 Cleaning Tools Available CAUTION Data may be lost as a result of scratches introduced during optical disk cleaning Cleaning optical disks is not a preventive maintenance procedure and should not be attempted unless disks are obviously dirty. Cleaning a disk is a last resort to recover data. Every effort should be made to instruct the customer of the importance of placing the jukeboxes at locations that do not have a high concentration of airborne dust. A clean environment is especially important if the customer’s applications cause optical disks to remain in the drives with the drive’s shutter open. Disks may be cleaned with the Optical Disk Cleaning Kit (C1700-88800). This kit contains swabs and alcohol, cleaning instructions, and a special cartridge holder that keeps the sliding sleeve open. CAUTION Never attempt to clean the optical drive objective lens! Although disk drive cleaning kits are available, they are not approved for use with the drive in this jukebox and could damage the optical drive mechanism. Using the Eject Tool to Remove a Disk From the Drive The optical drive mechanism does not automatically eject a disk from the drive if a power failure occurs. If you need to manually remove a disk from a drive with no power, you must use the eject tool. If you do not have an eject tool for the RWZ52 optical drive, you may order one of these: • Hewlett-Packard part number - C1701-88803 • Marshall Industries part number - R3322

EK–MOL80–SV. B01 4–41 You may also use a small flat-head screwdriver with the following dimensions: Length: 50 mm Width: 2.45 mm Thickness: 0.5 mm A disk can be removed from the drive while the drive is still secured in the autochanger. Follow the service access procedures in Chapter 5 to access the front of the drive mechanism, and then do the following steps to remove a disk from the drive: 1. Disconnect power to the drive if you have not done so already. 2. Insert the eject tool into the small round hole in the front panel of the drive. 3. Turn the eject tool in a clockwise direction (approximately 20 complete rotations) until the disk is ejected through the front of the drive. CAUTION Do not reach into the drive to get the disk. Wait until the disk is ejected through the front of the drive before removing it. Premature removal of the disk could damage the drive.
