Installation in Other Devices

Follow the instructions in this chapter to configure and install a DLT4000 tape
drive in systems or enclosures other than a Multi-Tape Backup Tray.
Caution – Do not install a SPARCstorage DLT4000 tape drive in a
SPARCserver™ 2000 system rack.
1. Determine your operating system using the uname -rs command.
Caution – For SunOS 5.4, 5.5, or 5.5.1 operating systems, you must perform the
procedures in Appendix A, "Modifying the st.conf File," before proceeding.
2. Shut down the operating system.
Use either the init or shutdown command. See the man pages for these
commands or the Solaris AnswerBook online documentation.
3. Determine the SCSI device identifier (SCSI ID) for the tape drive.
To check for an available SCSI ID, enter probe-scsi-all at the ok
prompt. Use a SCSI ID that is not returned by this command. Tape drives
are usually set to a SCSI ID of 4 or 5. Write down the SCSI ID (and SCSI host
adapter identifier) for future use.
