Depending on other devices attached to the same parallel SCSI bus and their SCSI
IDs, you might need to change the SCSI ID before using the device. Review the manuals
for the other devices on the parallel SCSI bus or your operating system to determine
which SCSI IDs are currently in use. Change the SCSI ID with the OCP (for the MSL2024
see
“Changing the SCSI address — parallel SCSI drives (Configuration> Change Drive)”
(page 98)
, for the MSL4048, MSL8048, and MSL8096 see
“Changing the drive
configuration (Configuration > Drives)” (page 123)
) or RMI (see
“Changing the drive
configuration” (page 72)
).
