support.storagetek.com sounds like a good place to start.
anything hardware related (especially more problematic) will probably need
the arm replaced / repaired.
Assume you have run any internal diagnostics on the device?

Subject: [Veritas-bu] STK L700e Robotic Arm Malfunctioning
All,
I have a backup environment where I have followings:
1. STK L700e Tape Library
2. SCSI Robotic Control
3. ACSLS as Robotic Control Host
4. Veritas Netbackup Enterprise 5.1GA
5. 6 Unix Media Servers
6. MS 2000 Clustered Master Server
During operations, L700e Robotic Hand Assembly get stuck/dead. Usually this
happens when arm assembly has a media in it. But I have also seen few
incidents where robot didn't have any media in it. It stop working and all
subsequent backups/restores get failed. To fix this, we pull out the media
from the arm and give a reset to library.The frequency of this issue has
become too high that this problem occurs almost every day.
Anyone with any clue? We have tried followings so far:
1. Robotic Hand Assembly replacement (without replacing camera)
2. SCSI Cable replacement
3. couple of motors replacements
4. Dust Cleaning
5. etc.
Looking for a help.
