M-Series Library: How can I find the Product Serial Number?
How
can I find the Product Serial Number for an M-Series Library?
The
M-Series libraries are expected to go End of Service Life on
30-June-2011. At the expiration of any existing contract, Quantum will no
longer actively support them
For an M-Series Library, you can
find the product serial number in three distinct locations:
Physical Location
The product serial number is located
on either the Stack-link slot or on the back of the library, depending on the
unit.
Remote Location
This procedure describes how to find
the product serial number on an M-Series library by using the Prism Management
Card interface.
CAUTION: It
is possible that the serial number displayed on the Prism Management Card and
the physical library may not match. Take the time to make sure they do match.
If not, the physical library value is the accurate
number.
