CAUTION
Failure to remove the power cables from these devices
could result in damage to the Library.
To connect the SCSI and power cable to the tape Library:
1.
Shut down and turn off the selected server. Turn off all attached devices, such as printers and
other SCSI devices. Remove the power cables from the server and all attached accessories.
2.
Attach one end of the SCSI cable (included in the accessory package) to one of the connectors on
the back panel of the Library (see
Figure 17 Attaching the SCSI cable to the drive
3.
Attach the other end of the SCSI cable to the connector on the SCSI host bus adapter or to the
connector on the previous device on the SCSI bus.
INFORMATION
The host bus adapter should be LVDS. A SE SCSI host
bus adapter will work, but will severely degrade
performance, and limit cable length. If there are any SE
devices on the same SCSI bus, the entire SCSI bus will
negotiate down to SE speed and severely degrade
performance. Never attach the LTO tape drive to a SE
SCSI bus
4.
Attach the terminator to the remaining SCSI connector on the back panel of the Library; if the
Library is the last or only device on the SCSI bus (see Figure 18). Otherwise, attach one end of a
SCSI cable to the remaining port and the other end to the next device on the SCSI bus. Make sure
that the last device on the SCSI bus in properly terminated.
