SCSI configuration
Your specific configuration will depend on the speed of your host and SCSI
controller. The library uses high performance tape drives. The tape drive
performance might be degraded if you attach too many drives to a single SCSI
host controller.
One tape drive on a single host system
Figure 16 shows a typical SCSI cable configuration for a library with one tape drive
(drive 1) installed.
Two tape drives on a single host system
Figure 17 on page 17 shows a typical SCSI cable configuration for a library with
two tape drives installed using a single host system.
