This chapter contains the following:
• the section called “Cabling the library”
• the section called “Powering on the library”
NOTE:
Many of the
fi
gures in this chapter show a library with SCSI drives and e2400-160
interface controllers. Your library may look different and could exclude the
e1200–160 robotics controller card, include Ultrium 460-FC and 960 drives,
and include e2400-FC 2G and 4G interface controllers. Where information is
speci
fi
c to the interface controller and drive types,
fi
gures are provided showing the
appropriate hardware.
CAUTION:
Before continuing with the installation procedure, ensure the library is powered off
and that the main switches on the power distribution unit are turned off (to the left).
Cabling the library
The following sections include procedures for cabling the library. These procedures will
be slightly different for the e2400-160 interface controller and Ultrium 460 drives, and
the e2400-FC 2G and 4G interface controller and Ultrium 460-FC and 960 drives. The
instructions for cabling each type of library are presented below.
CAUTION:
Before cabling the library, ensure the library is powered off and that the main switches
on the power distribution unit are turned off (to the left).
Connecting drive cluster cables
To connect the drive cluster cables:
1.
Verify that drive cluster power cables are already installed.
2.
Verify that the I
2
C communications cable (located to the right of each drive cluster)
is connected to the I
2
C connector on the cluster controller.
Connecting drive cables
An e2400-FC 2G or 4G interface controller connects to Ultrium 460-FC or 960 drives
using FC cables. ESL E-Series tape libraries are shipped with FC data cables and
