Dell PowerVault TL4000 - Manual (Page 92)

Verifying the Connection
1. Depending on the server configuration, you may need to change the SCSI ID or
Fibre Channel Loop ID of the library, if the current ID is the same as another
device on the bus.
2. When the host server is powered ON, install the software and/or driver(s) that
are compatible with the library. Backup software packages may require
additional software or licensing to communicate with the library accessor.
3. If this is a SCSI attachment, ensure the library is properly terminated. If the
library is the only SCSI device, other than the SCSI host adapter on the selected
SCSI bus, it must be terminated. Likewise, if the library is physically the last
SCSI device on the SCSI bus, it must be terminated. Only the devices physically
located at the beginning and end of the SCSI bus should be terminated.
4. Confirm that the host server operating system recognized the library. In
Microsoft Windows Server 2003, you can verify this by going to: Settings >
Control Panel
> System > Hardware > Device Manager > Tape Drive and/or
Medium Changer .
For more information on verifying the connection of SCSI devices, see the
operating system documentation.
Cartridge magazines
The library has removable magazines. Magazine access is password protected. For
safety reasons, the accessor motion is stopped when a magazine is removed.
The magazines are released with the Operator Control Panel or the Web User
Interface. In case the Operator Control Panel or Web User Interface initiated
process failed or the library no longer has power, a manual emergency release is
available.
Important: To manually release a magazine, see “Releasing the Magazines
Manually” on page 9-1. This manual process is used only if the
magazine cannot be released with the Operator Control Panel or the
Web User Interface.
2U library cartridge magazines
The 2U library has two cartridge magazines. The left cartridge magazine (see
Figure 4-39 on page 4-39) has 11 storage slots and houses the elective 1-slot I/O
station. The right magazine (see Figure 4-40 on page 4-39) has 12 storage slots. For
information about Element Addressing, see “2U Library I/O Slot, Storage Slots and
Drive Slot Element Addresses and Physical Locations” on page A-1.
