Introduction
Fibre Channel Configurations
The Fibre Bridge is supported in a basic configuration on Digital Linear
Tape (DLT) and Magneto-Optical (MO) libraries. The bridge is support in
expanded configurations on DLT libraries. A basic configuration is
comprised of only one Fibre Bridge (two SCSI buses available) and a
host. Expanded configurations may include multiple hubs and hosts,
usually connected to one or more networks.
Basic Configuration
Figure 1-1 shows the Fibre Bridge in a basic configuration, including one
host or server, one Fibre Bridge, and one library.
NOTE Magneto-optical libraries are supported only on the basic configuration.
You may connect a maximum of two MO libraries (one on each SCSI bus
from the bridge).
