Getting Started
1
Install the ADIC Management Console server and client software. For installation instructions, see the
ADIC Management Console User’s Guide
. It is recommended that you use this software to verify
connections and during the post-installation process.
2
Check that you have the latest firmware for the SNC by going to www.adic.com/downloads/firmware.
3
Verify that host OS and service pack are up to date and supported by the library.
4
Verify that Host Bus Adapter (HBA) have been installed on SAN attached hosts and configured
properly. HBA BIOS and device drivers should be at the most current level.
5
Install the Host Registration Service on hosts that will be connected to the library.
6
Ensure that all necessary FC cables are present.
7
Label both ends of each SCSI cable with drive ID and SNC connector number.
8
If you are using the ADIC Management Console to manage the SNC 4000, configure an Ethernet
environment. You will need to set the following network parameters:
Static IP address____________
Netmask _________
User-defined SNC name __________________
Default Gateway _____________________
9
Connect the Ethernet port on the SNC to the LAN. Library connectivity and monitoring parameters can
be managed from the ADIC Management Console.
Installation
Follow the instructions below to install the SNC with SCSI attached storage and FC attached hosts.
1
Power down your Scalar 24 and disconnect the AC line cord from the AC source outlet.
2
From the rear of the Scalar 24, locate the available SNC slot. Loosen the four thumbscrews on the cover
plate and remove the cover plate. Store the cover plate in a convenient place. It is required for proper
operation and cooling of the library if the SNC is ever removed.
Note
The Scalar 24 uses an LC high density connection. In environments where the
library will attach to SC interfaces (GBIC, 1x9, etc.) make sure that SC to LC
cables are available.
CAUTION
Use of incorrect network parameters can cause problems on the
Ethernet network.
Note
The default network name is the unit’s serial number. If you choose a different
name, it becomes the prompt displayed on the service terminal. Choosing a
different name may be useful if you have more than one SNC 4000. To change
the name, use the hostNameSet command. For more information, see
hostNameSet
on page 89.
