Step 5: Create SCSI Busses and SCSI-to-Fibre Connectivity
Once the MC300 PMC has been installed and cabled properly, create SCSI busses as explained in the
Quantum ATL
M-Series Installation Guide
(PN 6423001). If you installed a Fibre Channel bridge, establish SCSI-to-Fibre connectivity
as explained in the instructions provided with the Fibre Channel bridge.

Compare the Prism Base Features version number with the latest version of the MC300 PMC image found on the
web site. If a newer version of the software image file exists on the web site, update the version on the MC300 PMC
by downloading the new image file to the host computer and installing it as explained in the
MC300 Prism
Management Card User’s Guide
(PN 6311631).
Step 7: Configure the MC300 PMC
Once the MC300 PMC is installed and updated (if necessary), configure the MC300 PMC following the instructions in the
MC300 Prism Management Card User’s Guide
(PN 6311631).
Note:
Alternatively, you can configure a host computer (such as a laptop) to be compatible with the default static
IP address of the MC300 PMC. To do this, wait approximately 30 seconds after starting the library for the DHCP
request from the MC300 PMC to time out. The MC300 PMC then assigns itself the static IP address of
192.168.1.1.
Set the following parameters on the host computer:
•
IP Address: 192.168.1.2
•
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
•
Gateway: default settings for the computer
Using a PING command, verify communication between the host computer and the MC300 PMC.
