Library for the NonStop NS-Series
Server
This section covers:
Fibre Channel ServerNet Adapter Connection
You can attach the CTL700 tape library (control path and data paths) to a
NonStop NS-series server using a Fibre Channel ServerNet adapter (FCSA).
The control path and SCSI tape drives (CT9840-1, N1521A, and 5259) will need to be
connected to a M8201 Fibre Channel converter before connecting to a FCSA on a
NonStop NS-Series server.
For more information about the router, refer to the M8201 Fibre Channel
to SCSI Router Installation and User’s Guide.
All Fibre Channel tape drives (CT9840FC-1, CT9841FC-1, and M8503) connect
directly to the FCSA on the NonStop NS-series server by using a fiber optic cable.
Configuration
Configuring SCSI Tape Drives

Fibre Channel ServerNet Adapter Connection D-1
Configuration D-1
Note. The control path is used to control the robot and the data path is used to control the
tape drives.
Note. LUN in SCF should be 1 for the tape drive that is on bus 0. Lun in SCF should be 3 for
the tape drive that is on bus 1.
Note. PORTNAME in SCF corresponds to the WWP name of the router. This name is located
on the back of the device. See Figure D-1
on page D-2.
