42 Connecting and Powering on the Library Chapter 1
The following steps illustrate a Fibre Channel connection between the host ,
hub or switch , and library. Refer to Figure 22 on page 45 through Figure 25
on page 48, and connect the library as follows:
1. Ensure that the library and host are inactive, and the library is
disconnected from the host.
2. Ensure that the required host software has been installed.
3. Power off the host, hub, or switch. If the host is connected to a network,
check with the system administrator before turning off power.
4. Install a host bus adapter into the host computer. Use proper procedures to
prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Use wrist-grounding straps and anti-
static mats when removing internal components.
5. Connect the hardware.
a. On each level of the library, connect the supplied SCSI jumper cable
from bus 1 on each Fibre Channel controller to the left connector on
the left drive module.
b. On each level of the library, connect the supplied SCSI jumper cable
from bus 2 on each Fibre Channel controller to the left connector on
the right drive module.
c. Connect the supplied SCSI jumper cable from the top connector on the
library controller card to the right connector on the left drive module
(drive module 1) to daisy chain the library controller to the drive.
d. Terminate the bottom connector on the library controller card.
e. Connect the appropriate SCSI terminator to the remaining connectors
on the drive modules. Ensure that the interface type matches your
library.
