| 1976.13 | Here's a command procedure to clean the drive | GALINA::SSMITH | Sheldon Smith@MPO, dtn 442-2254 | Wed May 07 1997 19:00 | 7 |
| I wrote a short command procedure at a recent customer site which
allows the system manager / operator to manually initiate a cleaning
for a specified drive slot. It uses the SLS Tape Library to keep track
of the usage of the cleaning tape, and uses the optional ROBOT commands
to control the drive.
I will (attempt) to post it as a reply....
