Library Installation Connecting and Powering on the Library The following steps illustrate a Fibre Channel connection between the host, hub or switch, and library. Refer to Figure 1-23, Figure 1-24, or Figure 1-25, 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 wristgrounding 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 interface 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 interface 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. 1-34 Chapter 1

Library Installation
Connecting and Powering on the Library
Chapter 1
1-34
The following steps illustrate a Fibre Channel connection between the
host, hub or switch, and library. Refer to Figure 1-23, Figure 1-24, or
Figure 1-25, 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 interface 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 interface 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.
