102 Configuring the Library for Fibre Channel Chapter 3
Configuring the Library for Fibre Channel
Note When you reconfigure the library, you may also need to
reconfigure your backup software. For more information, consult
the documentation provided with your software.
The optional Fibre Channel controllers in the library serve as a bridge between
SCSI and Fibre Channel.
Note It is not necessary to connect the library to its Fibre Channel
topology (arbitrated loop or fabric) before configuration.
Configuration
Note When Fibre Channel controllers are installed in the library,
device SCSI IDs cannot be changed from their factory default.
Though you do not need to set SCSI IDs for Fibre Channel, you will need to
configure Fibre Channel addressing.
1. Enter the Fibre Channel menu.
2. Select the level where the Fibre Channel controller you want to configure is
located.
Use the [-] key to select a lower level in the library.
Use the [+] key to select a higher level in the library.
Select [OK] if the level is correct.
3. A message displays the following information:
— Fibre Channel controller type (LVD or HVD SCSI)
—SCSI bus status
Select [MORE].
