Verifying Hardware

1. The library uses one SCSI ID for each SCSI tape drive. Verify that the drive SCSI IDs are set to

unique SCSI IDs that are not used by any other SCSI device on the same bus. Depending on
other devices attached to the same SCSI bus and their SCSI IDs, you may need to change the
SCSI ID of the tape drive(s) before you can use the library.

2. Verify that the system recognizes the tape drives during the boot process.

3. Verify that the SCSI host adapter recognizes the tape drives during its initialization.

4. Verify that the status on the library s front panel interface is OK.

5. Verify that the power cable is inserted correctly.

6. Verify that the SCSI cables are properly connected at both ends. Check that the cables are not

damaged, and verify the lengths of your SCSI cabling. The length of the internal SCSI cabling
inside the library is 30cm. This length must be included in any calculation of cable length.

7. Verify that the SCSI bus is properly terminated. Only the devices physically at the beginning and

end of the cable must be terminated.
