Installing VLS6100, VLS6200, VLS6500, and VLS6600 Cables

1.

Connect Fibre Channel cables from your SAN media server or from your physical tape libraries
(for automigration) to the node Fibre Channel host ports, starting with Fibre Channel host port 0
and working towards Fibre Channel host port 3 (

Figure 25

,

Figure 26

, and

Figure 27

).

NOTE:

For Automigration, you will be asked to select the number of Fibre Channel ports to reserve
for Automigration. The software will then reserve that number of ports, beginning with port
3, then port 2, etc. so that the left-most ports as you face the back of the library are used
to connect to physical libraries, either directly or through an Fibre Channel switch.
