Setting and Viewing SCSI IDs
Library Operation
7. The current SCSI address setting flashes. Press NEXT or PREV until the desired
address displays, then press
ENTER.
8. Press
NEXT until UPDATE IDs NOW displays, then press ENTER.
9. IDs SAVED displays briefly, then one of the following messages displays:
• If the new settings do not conflict with other SCSI IDs in the library,
SCSI IDs * displays.
• If the new settings conflict with other IDs in the library, CONFLICT
ABORTED displays briefly, then SET IDs * displays. Any changes entered
are lost, and previous steps must be repeated to set a new address.
If any buses are daisy chained together, make sure the SCSI IDs are different
for each device on the bus.
• If a serial communications error is detected while trying to set the SCSI IDs,
DRV CONNECT ERR displays, followed by IDs NOT CHANGED. Any
changes entered are lost. The SCSI IDs* menu displays.
10. Press
CANCEL three times to return to the drive status (“ready” state).
NOTE To save new settings can be saved to flash ROM, turn the library off, then turn it
back on. This allows the settings to be recovered if the library is powered off for
more than ten days.
Do not switch off power to the library until the SCSI bus is inactive. Removing
power from a SCSI peripheral when the bus is active can result in data loss and/or
indeterminate bus states. (Check the host system manuals for information about
checking the SCSI bus status.) If the host is connected to a LAN, be sure to check
with the system administrator before shutting off power to the library.
