Recable the tape library.
• For SCSI, connect the drives to the host using SCSI cables and terminate the bus.
• For native FC, use an FC cable with an LC connector to attach the LTO-3 drive to an FC
host bus adapter or switch. Be sure that the connector on the other end of the FC cable
matches the device to which the LTO-3 drive is being attached.
