Changing the SCSI ID

This option changes the SCSI ID the autoloader uses. The autoloader operates as a single SCSI device with two Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs): one LUN (0) is for the tape drive, and the other (1) is for the autoloader robotics.

The default SCSI ID is 5. You should only need to change the SCSI ID if there is another device on the SCSI bus with the same SCSI ID.

To access this option, follow these steps:

1.From the Home Screen or main menu, press the [+] or [-] button until Configuration appears on the top line of the LCD screen.

2.Press the [Enter] button to select.

3.Press the [+] or [-] button until Change SCSI ID appears on the LCD screen. The second line displays the current SCSI ID.

4.Press the [Enter] button. The second line on the LCD screen displays New ID:.

5.Press the [+] or [-] button until the desired SCSI ID is displayed.

6.Press the [Enter] button. The LCD screen displays Please Cycle Power.

Note

The autoloader will not respond to input from the operator panel

 

until the power has been cycled.

 

 

7.Turn off the autoloader. After a few seconds, turn it back on again. The selected SCSI ID is now in effect.

Note If you changed the SCSI ID, you may also need to cycle power on the host server and reconfigure your backup software before you can use the autoloader. Consult your hardware and software documentation for more information.
