SCSI cable requirements
We recommend using 68-pin SCSI cables that conform to SCSI-3 specifications.
Important If you change the SCSI ID, you may also need to turn the
host server off and on, and reconfigure your backup
program before you can use the autoloader. The
autoloader and the tape drive must each have unique
SCSI IDs. Make sure that you do not assign duplicate IDs
within a bus.
Warning All wide SCSI configurations (single-ended, LVD, and
HVD) use the same 68-pin connector. Attaching the
autoloader directly to an HVD SCSI will make the entire
bus non-functional and may permanently damage the drive
or other SCSI devices on the bus.
