9. A computer-implemented method for remotely controlling, by a support center, a capture of images of a data storage library during operation thereof with a wireless image capture device located at a customer site, the computer-implemented method comprising:
-
connecting to the wireless image capture device, wherein the wireless image capture device is configured to be controlled remotely by a remote controller located at the support center; sending an instruction to the data storage library, by the remote controller located at the support center, to move an accessor of the data storage library; sending an instruction to the wireless image capture device, by the remote controller, to start recording images of the data storage library during operation thereof, wherein the wireless image capture device is mounted in a bracket on the accessor; sending an instruction to the data storage library, by the remote controller, to stop moving the accessor; sending an instruction to the wireless image capture device, by the remote controller, to stop recording images of the data storage library; and receiving the recorded images from the wireless image capture device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
