Problems encountered during installation
Unpacking
The screws or mounting hardware are not suitable for the server
It is unclear which SCSI ID to use
How should the SCSI bus be configured?
How should the SCSI bus be terminated?
Description Further information
Some parts appear to be missing or
damaged.
Contact your vendor if any parts need replacing.
Description Further information
Additional parts may be required for fitting
the tape drive into the server.
The HP StorageWorks Ultrium internal tape drive will
fit into most servers without the need for additional
hardware other than that originally shipped with your
system. If additional parts are required, or the
original parts have been lost, contact your server
vendor. See “Step 4: Attach mounting hardware” on
page 15.
Description Further information
It is uncertain which ID numbers are
available.
Use HP Library & Tape Tools (see page 33) to
provide information on your current SCSI settings.
The HP StorageWorks Ultrium drive has its SCSI ID
set to 3 by default. This should be left unchanged
unless this number is already in use. Full
instructions on how to change the SCSI ID are
given on page 11.
Description Further information
Correct configuration of the SCSI bus
with multiple drives can be a complex
area and more help may be required.
Daisy chaining devices is not generally
recommended.
Refer also to the “SCSI Configuration” section in
the online User’s Guide on the
HP StorageWorks Tape CD-ROM.
Description Further information
It is unclear if the bus is already
terminated or where an additional
terminator should be placed.
Both ends of a SCSI bus must be terminated.
Typically, when connecting an internal drive to the
ribbon cable already inside your server then both the
host bus adapter and the end of the ribbon cable will
already be terminated and no further action is
required.
Refer also to the “SCSI Configuration” section in
the online User’s Guide on the
HP StorageWorks Tape CD-ROM.
