Note. Although the display on the drive can only show a single line of text at a time and
displays only the selected option, the trees display all the possible options.
Note. In all cases but one, when the user changes the 9840 configuration and saves the
change, the configuration change is complete. This is not true when the user changes the
address in the 9840 by which the library addresses the drive (drive library address). In this
case the drive does not know that it has a new address until it is IPLed. The drive will keep
responding to its previous address unless it is IPLed after the address is changed.
Caution. After saving a configuration change, always IPL the drive if the library address has
also been changed.
