Chapter 7: Updating Firmware
Updating and Autoleveling Tape Drive Firmware
166 Quantum Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User’s Guide
Uploading Tape Drive
Firmware Used in
Autoleveling
Tape drive firmware is included with the library firmware bundle and is
automatically autoleveled on your tape drives when you install library
firmware (see
About Tape Drive Firmware Autoleveling on page 164). In
some cases, a tape drive firmware upgrade or patch may be available
outside of the normal library firmware release cycle. In this case, the
tape drive firmware will be available as a separate download from the
Quantum Web site at:
http://www.quantum.com/ServiceandSupport/
SoftwareandDocumentationDownloads/SI40/Index.aspx.
Caution: Only install tape drive firmware image files that have been
tested and qualified by Quantum.
If you want to install tape drive firmware from an earlier version that is
no longer available on the Quantum Web site, contact Quantum
Support.
It is not necessary to delete an old version of firmware before uploading
a new version. The new version overwrites the old version.
Note: Uploading tape drive firmware for autoleveling only uploads
the firmware to the library in preparation for autoleveling. It
does not initiate autoleveling or install firmware on the tape
drive. To initiate autoleveling, see
Initiating Tape Drive Firmware
Autoleveling on page 169.
You can only upload tape drive firmware on the Web client.
