NOTE NOTE Library Administration Setting SCSI IDs The SCSI ID for a drive position can be configured, even when no drive is present. When a drive is later added, it will use the ID already assigned to that location. 1. Enter the SCSI IDs menu. A message warns you that devices with the same SCSI IDs must be connected to different SCSI buses. Select [OK]. 2. The Configure SCSI ID screen displays a message that indicates the drive position selected. Use the [-] or [+] key to select the drive or library controller, then select [OK]. Refer to "Library Back Panel" on page 1-24 or the product information labels on the back of the library for the library's drive numbering arrangement. 3. The next screen displays the drive number and the current SCSI ID. Use the [-] or [+] key to select the desired SCSI ID, then select [OK]. 4. A confirmation screen will indicate either a successful or failed operation. If the SCSI ID assignment failed, the screen will indicate the reason and then return to the Configure SCSI ID screen. After changing SCSI IDs, you can save the new settings to flash ROM by power cycling the library, which allows the settings to be recovered if the library is powered off for more than eight days. If this step is not completed and the library is powered off for more than eight days, the new settings may be lost. You can also set SCSI IDs from remote access.

Library Administration
Setting SCSI IDs
Chapter 3
3-20
The SCSI ID for a drive position can be configured, even when no drive is
present. When a drive is later added, it will use the ID already assigned
to that location.
1.
Enter the
SCSI IDs
menu. A message warns you that devices with the
same SCSI IDs must be connected to different SCSI buses.
Select
[OK]
.
2. The
Configure SCSI ID
screen displays a message that indicates the
drive position selected.
Use the
[-]
or
[+]
key to select the drive or library controller, then
select
[OK]
. Refer to
Library Back Panel
on page 1-24 or the product
information labels on the back of the library for the library
s drive
numbering arrangement.
3.
The next screen displays the drive number and the current SCSI ID.
Use the
[-]
or
[+]
key to select the desired SCSI ID, then select
[OK]
.
4.
A confirmation screen will indicate either a successful or failed
operation. If the SCSI ID assignment failed, the screen will indicate
the reason and then return to the
Configure SCSI ID
screen.
NOTE
After changing SCSI IDs, you can save the new settings to flash ROM by
power cycling the library, which allows the settings to be recovered if the
library is powered off for more than eight days. If this step is not
completed and the library is powered off for more than eight days, the new
settings may be lost.
NOTE
You can also set SCSI IDs from remote access. See
Using the Remote
Management Card
on page 3-9.
