Note

The following procedures assume that you will make all entries

 

during one operator panel entry session. Each item is saved as it

 

is changed, except for the library’s SCSI ID: to save a revised

 

library SCSI ID, you must reset the library by pressing the

 

[RESET] button.

 

 

Setting the Library’s SCSI ID

If the control path for the library is SCSI, you must enter the library’s SCSI ID at the operator panel. Set the library SCSI ID from the Lib SCSI I/F Config menu.

Note

The information below explains special circumstances for

 

selecting a SCSI ID (address) for the library:

 

 

■When configuring the library to a Unix-based workstation, HP recommends that you use a dedicated SCSI client host bus adapter (HBA):

—For wide SCSI adapters, you may assign any address from 0 to 14 for the library.

—For narrow SCSI adapters, the range of addresses is 0 to 6.

■If you choose to use the embedded system bus on the SPARC station, select address 6, 5, 2, or 0 for the library; the remaining targets are reserved for Sun peripherals.

■For RISC System/6000 machines, available addresses on the embedded system bus are 6, 5, 3, and 2.

To set the library’s SCSI ID:

1.From the online status screen, press the [MENU] button. The Main Menu will display.

2.Press the down arrow button until the cursor underscores

CONFIGURATION.

3.Press the [SELECT] button.

The main Configuration Menu will appear and the cursor will line up with

LIBRARY CONFIG.
