Chapter 3

Setting the SCSI IDs

Default SCSI IDs are assigned at the factory for the library and each tape drive. Drive blanks are assigned B (for blank). This section describes how to view the default settings and change them if necessary.

Important The library and tape drives must each have a unique SCSI ID within each SCSI bus. Because you may have multiple SCSI buses, the library does not check for duplicate SCSI IDs. It is your responsibility to make sure you do not assign duplicate SCSI IDs within a SCSI bus.

To view or change SCSI IDs:

1.From the Configuration Menu, select Set SCSI IDs. The following screen appears:

Note: The SCSI IDs shown are examples only; your settings may differ. If one of the drive carrier slots contains a drive blank, the library displays a B (for blank) instead of a SCSI ID.

2.To set the SCSI ID for the bottom tape drive (D4), press >￿@ or >￿@ until the screen displays the desired SCSI ID.
