DLT7000 Hot-Swappable ??
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, so if not let me know.
I have a DLT7000 in an enclosure on our N4000 system. I need to replace it. I know that it is hot-pluggable, but is it hot-swappable?
If it is hot-swappable, is there a special procedure in replacing it?
Thanks,
Randy

If this is a "smart" chassis (it is called so) you should ensure there is no access from the server, switch the drive off and pull it out. The scsi bus will stay closed.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

yes you should be fine, just to remove it and replace it when not in use.
after re-connection you may need to do a full ioscan to get it picked up again.
if your replacing it with another drive then you will need to do an ioscan and install the new dev files.

However, after performing an ioscan -fn -C tape, the system crashed and rebooted.
But, after the reboot, the tape drive worked great.
