SCSI over IP Proto-

col (SIPP)

SIPP allows a library to transport SCSI commands through the IC’s FC port to the

robotics controller’s Ethernet port. In a library with multiple ICs, a designated IC

(the SIPP Master) receives and implements robot commands from the host.

SCSI-2

A second generation SCSI interface which includes command sets for magnetic

and optical disks, tapes, printers, processors, CD-ROMs, scanners, medium

changers, and communication devices.

SDLT

Super Digital Linear Tape is a Quantum tape drive and tape cartridge

specification offered in three ranges of capacity and transfer rates for

workgroup, mid-range, and enterprise needs.

SNMP

Short for Simple Network Management Protocol, a set of protocols for

managing complex networks.

Take-up leader

The ring at the beginning of a tape in a cartridge.

Tape drive con-

trollers

A device that controls the transfer of data from a host to a tape drive and vice

versa.

Terminator

Special electrical resistors (terminators) are installed in the SCSI devices at each

end of the SCSI bus and are not installed in other devices on the bus. The SCSI

bus must be properly terminated at both ends so that commands and data can

be transmitted to and from all devices on the bus.
