StorageLibrary Installation and User Guide

Installing the Library Cables
After mounting the T40 StorageLibrary into a rack (or tabletop version), you must connect the cables
to the library. Three sets of cabling instructions are available:
to the library. Three sets of cabling instructions are available:
•
For libraries with SCSI tape drives
•
For libraries with SAS tape drives
•
For libraries with Fibre Channel tape drives
Follow the instructions below:
Connecting Library Cables (SCSI)
Follow this procedure if you are installing a library that includes SCSI tape drives.

Guidelines for Connecting the SCSI Cables
1 Before the SCSI bus cable is connected to the StorageLibrary, make sure the StorageLibrary
power switch is off.
2 Make sure your host system is in a state where a new SCSI device can be safely connected to the
SCSI bus.
3 Do not exceed SCSI bus length restrictions.
1 Add the length of all external and internal SCSI cables on the bus.
2 Add 26.4 cm (10.4 inch) for the internal cable length in the StorageLibrary.
3 If the number of SCSI devices exceeds two, the maximum allowed length of an LVD SCSI bus
is 12 m (39 ft).
4 Before the StorageLibrary is powered on and the system is re-started, make sure the SCSI bus is
properly terminated.
Connecting the Cables
1. Install the library in a rack or install the tabletop kit.
2. Connect the SCSI cables to the tape drive.
1 On the bottom tape drive, connect a jumper cable to the top SCSI connector and then to the
bottom SCSI connector on the tape drive above it. Repeat this step for all tape drives on the
SCSI bus. Secure the cable with the thumbscrews on the connectors.
SCSI bus. Secure the cable with the thumbscrews on the connectors.
2 Terminate the last device on the SCSI bus with the appropriate SCSI terminator.
3 Connect a cable between the last tape drive on the SCSI bus and the host. Note that there are
specified limitations regarding the length of the SCSI cable.
