■Verify the connection between the autoloader and host by:

—Installing the HP Library & Tape Tools diagnostic/installation check utility available at http://www.hp.com/support/TapeTools. Install this utility onto the host server. This utility verifies that the autoloader is connected and communicating with the host server. It also verifies that the autoloader is functioning and provides diagnostic information.

—Making sure that the host server’s operating system recognizes the autoloader by going to Settings -> Control Panel -> SCSI Adapter in Windows NT or Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> Tape Drive and/or Media Changer in Windows 2000. For more information on verifying the connection of SCSI devices, consult the operating system documentation.
