Description
Host bus
Sets the SCSI ID for both the library and tape
drives.
NOTE: SAS tape drives do not require a
SCSI ID. Use the default configuration for
SAS tape drives.
Stack role
Assigns the library stack role as Master,
Slave, or Stand alone (solo). There can be
only one Master library in a multiple stack.
Once configured as a slave, all library OCP
functions can be controlled via the Master
library OCP. The library model number will
also change to PX500S indicating a stacked
library configuration. The library model num-
ber is available from the home screen on the
Master library OCP.
Left load port
Enables or disables the left load port
Right load port
Enables or disables the right load port
Drive FUP from tape
Allows you to perform a tape drive firmware
update from a firmware update tape car-
tridge.
Note:
All Scalar 50 libraries must have
FULL
capacity before configuration as a
stack is possible. PX502 libraries in a stack are considered fully licensed.
Configure each unit that will be stacked as a stand alone unit and enable
Full
capacity through the remote management pages (see the
Scalar 50
User’s Guide
PN 81-81768 located on the documentation CD for more
Capacity Key
information). After full capacity is enabled, change the stack
role(s) accordingly to create the multiple library stack.
Note:
If you are configuring a multiple library stack, the Scalar 50 in the bottom
most position in the stack MUST be the Master library.
