2 In the left-most column of the table under the Update Method area,
select one or more check boxes that correspond to drives that you
want to update with the same drive firmware image. Use the
following rules to select drives:
• Do not select drives that are currently loaded.
• If you select more than one drive, make sure that they are all of
the same
drive type.
•Click Select
All to select all drives. (All drives must be of the
same drive type.)
You can only perform firmware update for drives
of the same product, like HP or IBM for example,
and type, for example LTO-4 or LTO-5.
3 From the drop-down list in the Select Firmware File area, click the
drive firmware image you want to use to update the drives you
selected.

The library updates the firmware on each selected drive.
Note
CAUTION
The drop-down list includes all drive firmware
images that are currently stored on the library,
regardless of drive type. Be careful to select a
drive firmware image that is compatible with the
type of drive that you want to update. See the
library’s Release Notes for compatibility
information or contact Quantum technical
support.
Note
The library automatically logs off other users so
that they cannot perform library operations while
the drive firmware update operation is in progress.
