Library Administration NOTE NOTE Library Administration Configuring the Library for Fibre Channel • If you selected hard addressing for a loop connection, select the AL_PA (fixed address) or choose auto-select. Auto-select is an option under hard addressing that selects an available address and then uses it as a hard address from then on. 7. Press [OK] when complete to save the changes, or select [QUIT] to return to the beginning of the fibre configuration menu. If you select [QUIT], a message will display indicating the old values will be retained. If you select [OK], a message displays indicating that the settings are being stored onto the Fibre Channel interface. If this is successful, a message displays indicating that the new settings will be attempted at the next restart. 8. To immediately apply the new settings, select [RESTART], or select [DONE] to wait until the next power cycle. When the Fibre Channel interface is restarted, or when the library is power-cycled, FUTURE SETTINGS are copied into CURRENT SETTINGS. The Fibre Channel interface always attempts to connect using CURRENT SETTINGS. • If you select [RESTART], the Fibre Channel interface is restarted. This should not be attempted if data transfers or library operations are in progress. The [RESTART] operation normally completes within 90 seconds. The display will report the status of the operation when it is complete. The actual connection achieved depends on the external topology and network. Consequently, CURRENT STATUS may differ from CURRENT SETTINGS. You can also change configuration from remote access. See "Using the Remote Management Card" on page 3-9. Chapter 3 3-17
