Preparing the Host and Verifying the Connection
ValueLoader DLT VS80/DLT VS160 Tape Autoloader User Manual 15
• Make sure that the host server has an open expansion slot.
• Make sure your backup application supports the SCSI host adapter.
• Depending on the server configuration, you may need to change the
SCSI ID of the ValueLoader (see Changing the SCSI ID on page 34).
• Ensure the ValueLoader is properly terminated. If the ValueLoader is
the only SCSI device (other than the SCSI host adapter) on the SCSI
bus, it must be terminated. Likewise, if the ValueLoader is physically
the last SCSI device on the SCSI bus, it must be terminated. Only the
devices physically at the beginning and end of the SCSI bus should be
terminated.
• Verify the connection between the ValueLoader and host by making
sure the host server’s operating system recognizes the ValueLoader.
To do this:
• For Microsoft
®
Windows NT
®
, select
Settings > Control Panel >
SCSI Adapter
• For Microsoft
®
Windows
®
2000 and Win2003, select
Settings >
Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > Tape Drive
(and/or
Media Changer
)
For more information on verifying the connection of SCSI devices,
consult the operating system documentation.
Installing the
Device Drivers
1
There are two device drivers associated with the ValueLoader: one for
ValueLoader robotics and another for the tape drive within the
ValueLoader.
Note: The device drivers supplied at
www.Quantum.com
are required
if you intend to use Microsoft Windows 2000 native backup
application. Commercial backup applications provide all
necessary device driver support. Refer to
www.Quantum.com
for a list of compatible backup applications. Please note that
Windows NT does not include native support for ValueLoaders . A
backup application must be used.
