Problems encountered during installation

Unpacking

The SCSI cable shipped with the drive is not correct

Does the SCSI ID need changing?

How should the SCSI bus be terminated?

Is the correct SCSI host bus adapter installed?

Description

Further information

Some parts appear to be missing or 

damaged.

Contact your vendor if any parts need replacing.

Description

Further information

The SCSI cable shipped with the drive 

does not plug into the SCSI host adapter 

of the server.

The cable provided will connect to the majority of 

systems. If a different cable is required, you must 

order one from your supplier.

Description

Further information

SCSI ID 3 is already in use.

The Ultriuminternal 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

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. 

However, Ultrium external drives do not normally 

require terminators. When the cable is connected 

to the SCSI-IN connector, the enclosure provides 

active termination, providing the drive is the last 

device on the SCSI bus. If it is not, use the SCSI-

OUT connector to connect to the next device in the 

chain, and make sure that the chain is terminated. 

Description

Further information

The server already has a SCSI host bus 

adapter but it is difficult to determine 

what type it is.

You can check the SCSI configuration from the 

boot-up screen or from the Windows Control 

Panel.

The server may not have a SCSI host bus 

adapter installed.

If not, you will need to purchase one. See 

“supported SCSI bus types” on page 9.
