Moving Cartridges
The Move Cartridge command lets you move any tape cartridge in the library to
the destination you specify. This destination can be a storage bin, a tape drive, the
load port, the gripper, or the PTM.
Note: To move a cartridge from a tape drive when auto-drive unload is disabled, issue
an Unload Drive command. (See “Unloading a Drive” on page 87.)
To move a cartridge:
1. From the Operator screen, press the Move Cartridge button. The control
panel displays the Control: Move Cartridge screen, with the Source input
field active (see Figure 34).
