AutoAssigned A ddressing Option AppendixB
Auto Assigned Addressing Option
The AutoAssigned option is similar to the Indexed addressing, but with the
distinctionthat the table used is created through SCSI device discovery on
powerup or reset, and not otherwise retained. As the unit performs device
discoveryon the SCSI bus, the Index table relating FCP LUN values is filledwith
adjacent FCP LUNsr eferencingeach subsequent SCSI device. The host
systemwill then detect every attached device without voids, allowing full device
discoveryto the host. This allows easy configuration in environments where
deviceordering is not important and hot plugging of SCSI devices will notoccur.
Tapelibraries are excellent candidates for using Auto Assigned Addressing.
Configurationallows for discovery to be performed in order of bus, target, or
LUN as desired forthe specific environment.
