Tape

Specifies a tape drive configured for a system.

Slot Location: Most tape drives can be connected physically through a cable connected to the MFC SCSI port on the
IOMF CRU or a SCSI SAC (available on a ServerNet/DA CRU, a PMF2 CRU, or an IOMF2 CRU).

The CT9840/CT9840FC/CT9841FC cartridge tape drives must be connected to a SCSI SAC on either a ServerNet/DA
CRU, a PMF2 CRU, or an IOMF2 CRU.
