Setting the remaining configuration options
The Configuration Menu contains other configuration options described in the following sections. If desired, you can check these settings and change them.
SCSI Parity
The SCSI Parity option allows you to enable parity checking for the library (if the SCSI adapter card connected to the library supports it). When this option is enabled, the library checks all data coming across the SCSI bus for parity. The setting you specify remains in effect across power cycles.
Note: Parity checking can also be enabled and disabled by the application software using a SCSI MODE SELECT command. The method last used to set parity checking (LCD or SCSI command) has precedence.
Parity checking for tape drives is set separately. See the tape drive’s SCSI reference for more information.
To change SCSI parity:
1.From the Configuration Menu, scroll until the screen arrow points to SCSI Parity.
2.Press and 0 to toggle parity checking on and off.
3.Press >(VFDSH@ to return to the Main Menu.
