What Occurs When You Delete a Capacity Activation File
After deleting a capacity activation file, the activated tape capacity
decreases by the capacity of the activation file. If there are more tapes in the
library than remaining activated capacity, a Storage Cells alert will appear on the Library page. To correct this, either eject tapes or
re-install a capacity activation file.
What Occurs When You Delete the Multiport FC or Dual TCP/IP Activation File
After deleting the Multiport FC activation file, the library powers off the unavailable FC ports, which are port 2 and port 4 (for a library with a second library controller card).
