Figure 5. Loading the Cleaning Cartridge
|
107206 Model 220 Service Guide
Page 25
After the cleaning cartridge has been inserted, the remainder of the cleaning
process is automatic. The 7206 Tape Drive:
1. Loads the cleaning cartridge into the tape drive
2. Cleans the drive by moving the cleaning tape forward for approximately 30
seconds
3. Unloads the cleaning cartridge when the cleaning operation is complete
4. Indicates a successful cleaning operation by turning off the Fault status light (if
the Fault light was on prior to the cleaning process; otherwise, the Fault light
remains solid to indicate that the cleaning cartridge is no longer usable)
If a system error occurs, clean the drive and retry the operation. If the operation
fails, replace the data cartridge, clean the drive again, then retry the operation.
To determine how many times a cleaning cartridge may be used, check the
information printed on the cartridge. If you attempt to use a depleted cleaning
cartridge, the 7206 Tape Drive automatically detects the error and ejects the
cartridge. If the Fault status light was on prior to the cleaning process, it stays on;
if the Fault light was off, the depleted cartridge causes the light to come on.

Chapter 2. Using the Media
The 7206 Tape Drive uses 4mm data cartridges for saving and restoring system
data. It is designed to use only DDS (Digital Data Storage) data cartridges. The
cartridges are identified by one of the following DDS symbols:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 7206 Tape Drive only reads and writes data to tape cartridges that are DDS-2,
3, or 4 format.
Note: The 7206 Model 220 Tape Drive only supports DDS-2, 3, and 4 tape
cartridges.
The 7206 Tape Drive has been designed to operate with DDS media that meet the
following standards of the European Computer Manufacturers Association
(ECMA):
v ECMA-198 DDS-2 format
v ECMA-236 DDS-3 format
v ECMA-288 DDS-4 format
Note: IBM only supports the use of IBM media.

Recommendations for Data Cartridge Usage
The following list describes recommended guidelines that will help to protect your
data and prolong the life of your tape cartridges and the 7206 Tape Drive:
|
|
|
v Use only IBM 4mm DDS cartridges.
v Remove the tape cartridge from the drive when the drive is not in use.
v Back up and then discard any tape cartridge that repeatedly produces error
messages (the error information is in the System Error Log).
v On the data cartridge, do not open the door that covers the tape. The door
protects the tape from dirt, dust, and damage.
v Do not touch the tape. Any substance transferred to the tape by touching could
cause loss of data.
v Use only one label on a tape cartridge. Multiple or poorly placed labels can clog
the drive load mechanism.
v Do not use poor-quality tape cartridges. They can cause excessive read or write
errors, and may damage the tape drive.
v Discard any tape cartridges that are dropped, as the impact may damage the
tape’s internal mechanism.
v Make sure the environment is kept clean and constant. Do not operate in a
dusty environment and always maintain a constant environmental atmosphere.
A consistent storage and operating environment reduces media exposure to
climatic stress.
Attention: Use only the recommended cleaning cartridge to clean the tape drive.
Use of other than recommended cleaning cartridges can damage your drive and
may void the warranty.
v Printers and copiers can produce paper and toner dust. Locate the tape unit
away from these items. High traffic areas near hallways and doors can also
produce excess dust and dirt.
v All important information should be recorded on the tape label. Information,
such as the model and number of the system or tape drive, the date, the density,
any error statistics, and a log number should be included. The operating
environment and compression mode should also be noted.
Data Cartridge Erasure
|
|
|
Most bulk eraser devices do not have the capability to erase the 4mm data
cartridge. To properly erase a 4mm data cartridge with a bulk eraser device, the
erasure coercivity rating must be a minimum of 3900 Oersted.
Storage and Shipping Environments
Before using a tape cartridge, let it acclimate to the operating environment by
placing the cartridge in the operating environment for as long as it has been away
from the environment or for 24 hours, whichever is less. (To determine the
appropriate operating environment, see “Specifications” on page 9.)
Acclimation is necessary for any data cartridge exposed to a different humidity
environment or to temperature changes of 11°C (20°F) or more.
147206 Model 220 Service Guide
Page 29
Retrieval of archived data should be performed on a tape unit that is clean and
fully operational. Try to make the recovery environment the same as the operating
environment. Allow tapes at least 24 hours to acclimate to environment of the tape
unit.
The recommended environment for storage and shipment of 4mm data cartridges
is shown in Table 3.

Tape Cartridge Storage
Tape drives record data using densities similar to hard disk drives. Because most
computer systems are not located in a dust-free, climate-controlled environment,
you must exercise special care when dealing with tape cartridges and tape drives.
They need to be treated as a valuable asset used to protect your business data.

Use the following guidelines for storing your tape cartridges:
v Temperature and humidity should be kept constant at a level comfortable for
you.
v Tape cartridges should always be stored in their protective cases. The storage
case helps prevent damage from dust and physical misuse. When the tape
cartridges are not in use or being stored, they should be in their storage cases
and stood on edge in a designated storage location. Do not stack cartridges on
the flat side or stack other items on top of the tape cartridges. Handle your tape
cartridges with care to reduce archival problems.
v Stored tapes should be exercised at least once every 12 months. Run the tape
from Beginning of Data (BOD) to End of Data (EOD) and back to BOD at
normal operating speeds. Tapes stored in a warmer environment should be
exercised more frequently.
v Sunlight can damage the tape and the cartridge shell. Store tape cartridges out
of the direct sunlight
Attention: Operation outside of the environment can result in possible loss of
data or failure of the autoloader.
Chapter 2. Media15
Page 30
Operating in Harsh Environments
Do not use as an archival tape any tape that has been used outside of the
operating ranges specified in Table 2 on page 9 for an extended period of time. The
magnetic and physical strength of the tape will have deteriorated as a result of its
exposure to the environment. Do not store important data on such a tape; transfer
the data to a newer tape for reliable archiving.
Attention:Do not operate the 7206 Tape Drive in a poor air-quality environment.
If your environment contains an excessive amount of particulates, contact your
service representative for more information.
Setting the Write-Protect Switch
The position of the write-protect switch on the 4mm tape cartridge determines
when you can write to the tape (see Figure 6).
v When the switch is set to the right 1, data can be written to and read from the
tape.
v When the switch is set to the left 2, data can only be read.

Appendix A. Power Cables
To avoid electrical shock, a power cable with a grounded attachment plug has been
provided. Use only properly grounded outlets.
Power cables used in the United States and Canada are listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories
™
) and certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA™). The power cables
(UL
consist of:
v Electrical cables, type SVT or SJT.
v Attachment plugs complying with National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA)
5-15P, that is:
“For 115 V operation use a UL Listed Cable Set consisting of a minimum 18 AWG, Type
SVT or SJT three conductor cable a maximum of 15 feet in length and a parallel blade,
grounding type attachment plug rated at 15 A, 125 V.”
“For 230 V operation in the United States use a UL Listed Cable Set consisting of a
minimum 18 AWG, Type SVT or SJT three conductor cable a maximum of 15 feet in
length, and a tandem blade, grounding type attachment plug rated at 15 A, 250 V.”
v Appliance couplers complying with International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
Standard 320, Sheet C13.
Power cables used in other countries consist of:
v Electrical cables, type HD21.
v Attachment plugs approved by the appropriate testing organization for the specific
countries where they are used.
“For units set at 230 V (outside of U. S.): Use a Cable Set consisting of a minimum 18
AWG cable and grounding type attachment plug rated 15 A, 250 V. The Cable Set should
have the appropriate safety approvals for the country in which the equipment is to be
installed and marked 'HAR'.”
Table 4 on page 42 lists the power cable part number, the country where the power cable can
be used, and an index number to be matched with the receptacles shown in Figure 16 on
page 43. If your power cable does not match this information, contact your local dealer.
All tape cartridges are not alike. The tape composition and length, and the
construction of the cartridge itself can all affect the quality and capacity of the
recording and the performance of your tape drive. A poor quality tape cartridge
may appear to work adequately in your system, yet it can leave contamination in
the tape path or impede the speed of the recording.
The length and composition of the tape, and the size, shape, and construction of
the cartridge shell must all be considered when selecting the tape cartridge to be
used with your system. We recommend using only data and cleaning cartridges
supplied by IBM. Data grade tape media is the only type of tape media that
should be used for backup and data processing. Saving money by using generic
media for data purposes will do little to save your business if your data is
destroyed and your backup tapes fail because of inferior media.

Figure 17. Safety Inspection
Perform the following safety checks.
1. Do a controlled system shutdown (refer to the instructions in Chapter 2,
“Setting Up the 7206 Tape Drive,” in the 7206 Model 220 4mm Tape Drive Setup
and Operator Guide).
2. Turn off the power to all external devices connected to the system unit.
3. Turn off the power to the 7206 Tape Drive (1 in Figure 17).
An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage
on metal parts of the system or the products that attach to the system. It is the
customer’s responsibility to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and
grounded to prevent an electrical shock. (RSFTD201)
5. Unplug the 7206 Tape Drive external power cable from the electrical outlet.
6. Unplug the system unit power cable from the electrical outlet.
7. Check the 7206 Tape Drive external power cable for damage.
DANGER
To prevent a possible electrical shock when adding or removing any devices
to or from the system, ensure that the power cords for those devices are
unplugged before the signal cables are connected or disconnected. If possible,
disconnect all power cords from the existing system before you add or
remove a device. (RSFTD203)
DANGER
To prevent a possible electrical shock from touching two surfaces with
different electrical grounds, use one hand, when possible, to connect or
disconnect signal cables. (RSFTD004)
8. Check the external SCSI bus (signal) cable 3 for damage.
9. Check the SCSI bus terminator for damage.
10. Check the covers for sharp edges, damage, or alterations that expose the
internal parts of the 7206 Tape Drive.
11. Check the covers for proper fit. They should be in place and secure.
12. Check the product label on the bottom of the 7206 Tape Drive to make sure it
matches the voltage at your outlet.
DANGER
Dangerous voltage being measured. (RSFTD005)
13. Check the voltage level at the outlet and also check for proper grounding (see
Figure 18 on page 49).
