Configuring the Tape Drive for the
NonStop S-Series Server
This section includes:
Adding a Tape Drive
To add a tape drive to the system configuration database, the tape drive need
not be physically installed, but the adapter that controls the tape drive must be
installed. Use the SCF ADD TAPE command to add a tape drive.
ServerNet/DA
To add a tape drive with a SCSI ID of 5 named $TAPE0 to SAC 1 of a
ServerNet/DA adapter in group 1, module 1, slot 52, enter the following
command at an SCF prompt:
-> ADD TAPE $TAPE0, SENDTO STORAGE, LOCATION (1,1,52), SAC 1, DEVICEID 5
For complete details about the SCF ADD TAPE command, see the SCF
Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem.
PMF CRU
1. Use the SCF ADD TAPE command to define and add a tape drive to the system
configuration database. Before issuing the ADD TAPE command, ensure that the
tape drive is installed properly. The following example adds a tape drive FRU
($TAPE0) to the system configuration database:
->ADD TAPE $TAPE0, SENDTO STORAGE, LOCATION (1,1,55), DEVICEID 5,
PRIMARYCPU 0, BACKUPCPU 1
In this example:
•
The LOCATION attribute specifies the location (group, module, and slot) of the
PMF CRU (adapter) to which the tape drive is attached.
•
The DEVICEID attribute shows the device ID that is configured for the device.
This ID must match the SCSI ID that is physically set in the device.
•
The PRIMARYCPU attribute specifies the processor in which the primary tape
process should execute.
•
The BACKUPCPU attribute specifies the processor in which the tape process
starts its backup process.
