Product Description
The ETERNUS LT20 S2 LTO library provides a compact, high-capacity, low-cost solution for simple, unattended
data backup.
The ETERNUS LT20 S2 houses up to 8 tape cartridges in a compact 1U form factor with easy access to tape
cartridges via two removable magazines and a mailslot for importing and exporting cartridges. The library can
support one LTO3, LTO4, LTO5, or LTO6 half height tape drive.
Each magazine can hold up to four cartridges.
The library does not occupy an own signal interface but is controlled via a separate LUN of the tape drive.
The library can be operated via Operator Control Panel (OCP) or Remote Management Unit (RMU).
The ETERNUS LT20 S2 tape library is compatible with most operating systems and environments that support
the SAS or Fibre Channel interface. However, the library requires either direct support from the operating
system or a compatible backup application to take full advantage of its many features.

2.6 Connecting
2.6Connecting
2.6.1Connection Recommendations and Additional Remarks
The effectively achievable data throughput of tape drives depends on a multiplicity of factors. These primarily
are:
• Specified data throughput on the system bus (e.g. the PCI bus)
• Number of host bus adapters (controllers) on the system bus
• Origin of data to be stored (e.g. RAID system, single hard disk drives)
• Transmission type and speed of the data to be stored (e.g. Ethernet)
• Number of devices at the host bus adapter (controller)
• Sequential or parallel operation of the tape drives
• Compressed or uncompressed operation of the tape drives
2.6.1.1Fibre Channel
Fibre Channel allows for an active intelligent interconnection scheme, called a Fabric, to connect devices.
Everything between the ports on Fibre Channel is called the Fabric. The Fabric is most often a switch or series
of switches that takes the responsibility for routing.
2.6.1.2SAS
■SAS features
• Serial data transfer to and from storage devices as disk and tape drives
• 4 SAS channels per SAS HBA port (typical, not mandatory) for a maximum of 4 storage devices per HBA
port
• Unique identifying of a SAS drive by its WWN (World Wide Name) or WWID (World Wide Identifier)
■Host Bus Adapter
The HBA has to meet following requirements:
• External SAS connector
• Multiple LUN support (most SAS RAID controllers do not support multiple LUNs). Consult your sales
representative or a certified service engineer for compatibility of HBA, library and your server.
■Cable
Fujitsu recommends a maximum SAS cable length of 4 meters from HBA to one
tape drive.
Do not use any adapter or converter between HBA and tape drive(s).

2.6 Connecting
2.6.1.3Preparing the Host
Use proper procedures to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Use wristgrounding straps and anti-static mats when handing internal components.
Follow these general guidelines:
• Make sure that your backup application supports the host bus adapter communicating with the library.
• If the host server is connected to a network, check with the system administrator before turning off power.
• Install a suitably rated HBA.
• Make sure that LUN scanning is enabled on the HBA.
2.6.2Power and Signal Cable
Use approved power cords! Not doing so can result in the following:
• not meeting individual country specific safety requirements;
• insufficient conductor amp capacity that could result in overheating with
potential personal injury and/or property damage;
• an unapproved power cord could fracture resulting in the internal contacts
being exposed, which potentially could subject the user to a shock hazard.
Manufacturer disclaims all liability in the event a non-manufacturer approved
power cord is used.
Manufacturer disclaims all liability in the event a non-manufacturer approved

Operating the LTO Library
3.1Operator Control Panel (OCP)
3.1.1Operating Modes
There are two basic modes for Operator Control Panel (OCP). First is the User Interaction mode. This mode is
employed when a user is pushing buttons on the OCP. The second mode is the System Driven Mode. This is the
normal mode of operation. In this mode, the OCP displays status associated with the library actions that were
caused from commands issued via the library's other interfaces. Actions like Loading, Rewinding or Moving
tape will be displayed. When an OCP button is pressed and released, the OCP automatically transitions to User
Interaction Mode. User Interaction Mode will continue for 3 minutes after a user stops pushing buttons, or the
requested robot action stops - whichever is longer. At this time the OCP will return to System Driven Mode.
In case of activated User security feature the User Interaction Mode is restricted to the Information and Login
menu item, until a login with correct PIN is entered.
3.1.2OCP Philosophy
During the following discussion of the OCP operation, several functional nuances may be clarified by defining
several rules the OCP must abide by. These rules of operation constitute a "philosophy".
• Any operational conflict between commands received over RMU and those entered via the front panel will
be avoided with a reservation mechanism on a "first-come, first-served" basis. Any reservation by the OCP
is canceled by an OCP logout or the timeout, which cancels the User Interaction Mode.
• Library firmware will not allow a user to select an impossible request. Those situations will include, but are
not limited to:
- Moving a cartridge from any source to a full slot
- Unloading a cartridge from an empty slot
- Moving a cartridge from any source to a full drive
- Unloading a cartridge from an empty drive
• Any error detected by the library controller or the drive and not recoverable through predetermined
firmware algorithms, will be considered as fatal. An error code will be displayed on the OCP and the error
LED will become illuminated. The error code will remain on the OCP until a push button is pressed, the OCP
will return to the Home Screen.
• Numeric error codes are only used for unrecoverable, fatal errors, otherwise text status messages are
provided.

Chapter 3 Operating the LTO Library
3.1 Operator Control Panel (OCP)
3.1.3Power-Up Display
When the ETERNUS LT20 S2 device powers up, or resets, it goes through several internally controlled processes
that allows it to get initialized and running. This processes are called Power-On-Self-Test (POST). While the
POST is happening, the OCP shall have appropriate information displayed to keep the user informed. When
the library finishes POST, it will display the current drive mount status in the Home Screen. If the drive is
empty, the following status will be displayed.
Figure 3.1 POST when drive empty
3.1.4Note about the LEDs
All LEDs are updated during power up and reset sequences. Upon power up or software reset, the library will
illuminate all LEDs as soon as POST allows. This will help the user to verify if all LEDs are functional. When
initialization starts, all LEDs will be extinguished and the Ready/Activity LED will flash at a reasonable rate of
approximately 1-second per cycle, 50% duty cycle. When the mechanical initialization is complete, the Ready/
Activity LED will stop flashing and be constantly illuminated. The Magazine Status LEDs will also show the
appropriate status (locked, unlocked or removed).
If a library failure occurs, the Ready/Activity LED will be turned off and the Error LED will be illuminated. The
OCP will also display an appropriate error code to help identify the failure.

3.1 Operator Control Panel (OCP)
3.1.5Input Modes
There are several modes to enter values in the different menu items. These values are selectable predefined
values, toggle values (e.g. On/Off) and numerical values like network addresses.
3.1.5.1Selectable Predefined Values
After navigating to the menu item the various predefined values can be selected with the (▲) and (▼) key. As
soon as the display shows the correct value it will be entered by pressing the ENTER key.
3.1.5.2Toggle Values
Toggle values are used to switch between two different states like On and Off. After navigating to the menu
item the display shows the actual state. Pressing the ENTER button will switch to the possible new state.
Pressing ENTER a second time will take over this new state. This procedure works vice-versa.
3.1.5.3Numerical Values
Numerical values are needed for network addresses, PIN entries and other configuration entries. After
navigating to the menu item which should be changed the actual value will be displayed and the cursor stays
on the first digit. The value can be incremented/decremented with the (▲) and (▼) button. After pressing the
ENTER button the cursor is set to the next editable digit. It can be changed in the same way. After pressing the
ENTER button at the last digit the complete entry will be stored. Pressing the CANCEL button will cancel the
whole edit process and the old value is valid again.
3.1.6Power ON/OFF
Part of the Operator Control Panel is the Power On/Off button. Pressing this button will initiate a controlled
Power Down of the unit (soft landing). The following operations will take place before the unit shuts down
completely:
• The display indicates with an appropriate message that the shutdown is in progress.
• The library controller finishes all ongoing library and drive activities.
• The robot is moved to its home position.
• The library controller switches off the power supply's secondary side.
• To abort the shutdown process the user has to press Cancel within the first 3 seconds.

Chapter 3 Operating the LTO Library
3.2 Tape Cartridges
3.2Tape Cartridges
Before you begin using the library, an understanding of the media type, use, maintenance, and how to
properly label and write-protect your tape cartridges will help you to prolong the life of your tape cartridges as
well as the tape library.
3.2.1ETERNUS LT20 S2 Tape Library Cartridge Type
The cartridge types supported depend on the drive types installed. The library will support any type of data
cartridge and cleaning cartridge the drive will support.
Some tape drives include support for both rewritable and WORM data cartridges. Write-Once, Read-Many
(WORM) data cartridges provide an enhanced level of data security against accidental or malicious alteration
of data on the tape cartridge. The WORM data cartridge can be appended to maximize the full capacity of the
tape cartridge, but the user will be unable to erase or overwrite data on the cartridge.
3.2.2Using and Maintaining Tape Cartridges
Do not degauss Ultrium LTO data cartridges! These data cartridges are pre-recorded with a magnetic servo
signal. This signal is required in order to use the cartridge with Ultrium LTO tape drives. Keep Ultrium LTO
cartridges away from strong magnetic fields.
Before you use the library, to ensure the longest possible life for your data cartridges, follow these guidelines:
• Use only the data cartridges that are designated for your model of library/drive.
• Clean the tape drive when the Clean Drive LED is illuminated. Be sure to use only Ultrium Universal
cleaning cartridges.
• Do not drop a cartridge. Excessive shock can damage the internal contents of the cartridge, or the cartridge
case itself, making that cartridge unusable.
• Do not expose your data cartridges to direct sunlight or sources of heat, including portable heaters and
heating ducts.
• The operating temperature range for your data cartridges is 10 to 35 °C. The storage temperature range is
-40 to +60 °C in a dust-free environment in which relative humidity is always between 20 percent and 80
percent (noncondensing).
• If the data cartridge has been exposed to temperatures outside the ranges specified above, stabilize the
cartridge to operating temperature for the same amount of time it was exposed to extreme temperatures
or 24 hours, whichever is less.
• Do not place data cartridges near sources of electromagnetic energy or strong magnetic fields such as
computer monitors, electric motors, speakers, or X-ray equipment. Exposure to electromagnetic energy or
magnetic fields can destroy data and the embedded servo code written on the media by the cartridge
manufacturer, which can render the cartridge unusable.
• Place identification labels only in the designated area on the cartridge.

Chapter 3 Operating the LTO Library
3.2 Tape Cartridges
3.2.3Labeling Tape Cartridges
Attaching a barcode label to each tape cartridge enables the library and application software to identify the
cartridge quickly, thereby speeding up inventory time. Make it a practice to use barcode labels on your tape
cartridges. Your host software may need to keep track of the following information via the associated barcode:
• Date of format or initialization
• Tape's media pool
• Data residing on the tape
• Age of the backup
• Errors encountered while using the tape (to determine if the tape is faulty)
The misuse and misunderstanding of barcode technology can result in backup and restore failures. To ensure
that your barcodes meet manufactures quality standards, always purchase them from an approved supplier
and never print barcode labels yourself.
Ultrium tape cartridges have a recessed area located on the front of the cartridge next to the write-protect
switch. Use this area for attaching the adhesive-backed barcode label. Only apply labels as designated in
Figure 3.3
.
Figure 3.3 Ultrium tape cartridge and proper barcode label placement
• You may order tape cartridges, barcode labels, and other accessories via your Fujitsu sales representative. It is
recommended to order accessories classified by Fujitsu as "Preferred Quality" exclusively. Only such tape cartridges
have the full support by Fujitsu.
• The barcode label should only be applied as shown in Figure 3.3. Never apply multiple labels onto a cartridge, as extra
labels can cause the cartridge to jam in a tape drive.

3.2 Tape Cartridges
3.2.4Write-protecting Tape Cartridges
All rewritable data cartridges have a write-protect switch to prevent accidental erasure or overwriting of data.
Before loading a cartridge into the library, make sure the write-protect switch on the front of the cartridge is
in the desired position.
• Slide the switch to the right to write-protect the cartridge. A small pad-lock is visible indicating that the
cartridge is write-protected (see Figure 3.4
• Slide the switch to the left to allow the library to write data to the cartridge (see Figure 3.4

3.2.7Activating the Autoclean Function
The autoclean function is disabled by factory default.
Depending on the backup application used on your host you can decide, if this software should manage the
cleaning of the library’s tape drive, or if it will be cleaned by activating the autoclean function.
After enabling autoclean, the autoclean process automatically starts when a cartridge is unloaded from the
tape drive that reports "cleaning requested". For cleaning the drive the library can use every previously in an
inventory identified cleaning cartridge. A cleaning cartridge must have a "CLN" barcode label to work with the
autoclean function.
To activate the autoclean function:
1In the Home Screen of the OCP, select
Configuration → Configure Library → Autocleaning
Disabled.
2Press
A cleaning cartridge will not be used once it has exceeded its maximum count of operations (50 loads) or
when a medium error was detected during operation.
If there is more than one cleaning cartridge available, the one with highest load count will be used. This
causes the cleaning cartridge with the highest load count to wear out first.
Enter

Troubleshooting
4.1Installation Problems
Problems encountered during the installation of the library are usually caused by improper SAS or FC
configuration, application software configuration errors, or an incorrectly configured operating system. If the
application software that you are using is not communicating with the library after installation, check the
following.
4.1.1LUN Scanning
Use dual LUNs to control the tape drive (LUN 0) and library robot (LUN 1). The ETERNUS LT20 S2 requires an
HBA that supports LUN scanning and LUN scanning must be enabled.
4.1.2Backup Application Installation
Refer to the documentation included with your backup application for instructions on how to verify proper
installation. Some backup software packages require an additional module to communicate with the library
robots.
4.1.3Device Driver Installation
Make sure that the proper device driver, if applicable, is installed for the library. Contact your support
representative for more information or refer to the technical support helpdesk by selecting
→
quick link
Many backup applications use their own drivers for the library and drive. Before installing a driver, make sure
it will not be in conflict with the software.

• Make sure the power switch on the front panel is in
the ON position.
• Make sure there is power to the outlet.
• Try another working outlet.
• Replace the power cord.
• Contact your service representative.
• Make sure the power cord is connected.
• Make sure the power switch is on.
• Power cycle the library.
• Download library firmware.
• Contact your service representative.
• Power cycle the library, allow it to complete
initialization, which in rare cases can take as long as
10 minutes, and then retry unloading the tape using
the library operator control panel.
• Allow the tape drive to complete all operations. This
may take as long as ten minutes if you reset or cycle
power on the library while the cartridge is positioned
at the physical end of the media.
• Make sure that the backup software is not reserving
the slot or preventing the tape drive from ejecting the
cartridge. The backup software needs to cancel the
reservation and any hold it has on the tape drive.
Temporarily disconnecting the library from the host
server and power cycling eliminates the host and its
software as a problem source.
• Contact your service representative.

Make sure you are using data and cleaning cartridges that

are compatible with the drive and model of your library.
The library automatically unloads incompatible
cartridges, the Media Attention LED flashes, and an
exclamation mark (!) is displayed in the inventory display
for the indicated slot number.
Export the media in order to clean the state.
• Make sure that the cartridge is write enabled (move
the write-protect switch to the enabled position).
• Make sure you have the appropriate data cartridge
for your library model.
• Make sure you are using an Ultrium cartridge that has
not been degaussed. Do not degauss Ultrium
cartridges.
• Make sure that the cartridge has not been exposed to
harsh environmental or electrical conditions and is
not physically damaged in any way.
• Many backup applications do not read or write to
cartridges that were created using a different backup
application. In this case, you may have to perform an
erase, format, or label operation on the cartridge.
• Make sure you understand any data protection or
overwrite protection schemes that your backup
application may be using, which could prevent you
from writing to a given cartridge.
• Retry the operation with a different, known good
tape.
• Clean the tape drive. See"3.4.8.6 Cleaning Tape
Drive" (page 67).
• Make sure you are using an Ultrium universal

Bad performance
Media attention
LED issues
ProblemSolution
• Try a new cartridge. A marginal cartridge can cause
performance problems due to bad spots on the tape
requiring retries.
• Backing up data that compresses poorly or is already
compressed will lower performance.
• Check the size of the files. Small file size can impact
performance.
• Confirm that the backup application is utilizing block
sizes of at least 32KB, preferably 64KB. Refer to the
backup application documentation for details.
• Check the network bandwidth from the host
computer. If you are backing up data over a network,
consider comparing to a local-only backup.
• Make sure the backup server has enough memory to
handle the bandwidth of the backup or restore.
• Clean the tape drive. See "3.4.8.6 Cleaning Tape
Drive" (page 67) for instructions.
Contamination by loose debrisAvoid contamination by ensuring that the library is
installed in a clean, contamination-free environment.
Cartridges should be stored vertically in their plastic
cases. Continue cleaning the tape drive as needed.
Non-acclimated mediaA cartridge should be acclimated for at least 24 hours
before being used, particularly if it has been stored at a
substantially different temperature or level of humidity
than the library.
Cartridge is incompatibleUse only cartridges that are compatible with the drive
type.
• Make sure you are using an Ultrium universal
cleaning cartridge (see "3.4.8.6 Cleaning Tape Drive"
(page 67)).
Expired cleaning cartridgeA cleaning cartridge is good for Ultrium universal
libraries: 50 cleans.
Bad/defective/contaminated
media
If the Media Attention LED is cleared and - although the
drive has been cleaned - immediately re-displays each
time a particular cartridge is reloaded that cartridge
should be suspected as being defective.
• Export the cartridge and load a known good cartridge.
In some cases, a cartridge can be worn out, have a
defective Cartridge Memory, or have been formatted
as a Firmware Upgrade Cartridge.
• Any cartridge that is suspected of being defective or
contaminated should NOT be reused in any drive.
