Understanding the PSFR-CP41
Configuration
Of primary importance in configuring the PSFR-CP41 is determining the mode
of operation required. The unit can be configured to support Fibre Channel
hosts communicating with SCSI targets, or SCSI hosts communicating with
Fibre Channel targets. The default configuration of the unit allows for Fibre
Channel hosts to connect to SCSI targets. Configuration is needed in some
cases to modify the method in which this occurs, as well as to support SCSI
hosts communicating with Fibre Channel targets. Other functions and features
can be configured as well, and are discussed further in this chapter.
A typical configuration would have a Fibre Channel host connecting via an
arbitrated loop to the PSFR-CP41, with SCSI target devices attached to the
PSFR-CP41. This configuration, using a tape library and drives, is represented
in Fig. “Configuration with tape library”.
