Firmware for C1108F Jukebox 8Drives/238Slots

Hello,

what is the right firmware for a C1108F Model Jukebox with 8 Drives and 238 Slots.

Is there anything to mention? A Configuration Module or somewhat like that?

My problem occours after changing the PCA Controller - after that the Jukebox recognize only 6 Drives and 128 Slots.

What did i do wrong?

Thanks for a solution in advance!

Hi,

I'm sure you replaced the interposer PCA.
Inspect the old part. There is a little module plugged in - this give the expansion from 128 to 238 slots.

You need to keep this module in the library (on the board, of course).

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Regarding the firmware (no new version over the last years):

install and run LTT from here:

http://www.hp.com/support/tapetools

This is the default tool to manage firmware and test/support drives and libraries.

Hope this helps!

Torsten.

According to partsurfer this is a 600fx jukebox.

The firmware should be included in this bundle:

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesId=63762&swItem=co-43124-1&prodNameId=12376&swEnvOID=1005&swLang=8&taskId=135&mode=4&idx=0

The version should be LTT_C1107F_0.49.frm
(v.0.49).

Even the name is not the same, LTT will only install the correct version on your box - don't worry.

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
