This section provides instructions for connecting the tape drive(s) in the 

library to a Fibre Channel network.

 shows the back panel of the StorageLoader 2U LTO FC Library. 

Each tape drive includes one integrated dual LC optical fiber connector, 

Port A, for connecting the tape drive to a Fibre Channel network.

In a Fibre Channel environment, you can connect the tape drive(s) to a Fibre 

Channel hub or switch in an arbitrated loop or a switched fabric. For simplicity 

in these instructions, each of these situations is referred to as a “network.”

To connect the tape drive(s) to a Fibre Channel network:

1.

Remove the tape over the Fibre Channel connector. The tape secures the 

protective plugs.

Remove the protective plugs from the optical connectors on each tape 

drive. Set the plugs aside.

Attach an optical cable from the hub or switch to the optical fiber connector 

on each tape drive (if more than one tape drive is installed). The connector 

and the cable are keyed to ensure that the cable is attached in the correct 

orientation.

Once the library has been powered on and the Fibre Channel loop has 

been initialized, avoid disconnecting the tape drive in the library from the 

loop. If you need to disconnect the library from the loop, use the utility 

provided with your switch or hub to bypass the affected ports before 

breaking the connection. The bypass sets the port to a non-participating 

state on the loop. When you have reconnected the library, use the utility 

to return the port to a participating state.
