Checking And Setting Scsi The Id - HP dat72 5242 User Manual

Section 1: General Information
3.2.3.7 Checking and Setting the SCSI ID
HP StorageWorks DAT 72 (Models 5242 and 5242-ACL) User's Guide
The 5242-ACL's power-up sequence includes:
1. The three LEDs blink until the self-test completes (approximately 30 seconds).
2. All segments of the 5242-ACL's autoloader LCD are energized.
3. The SCSI ID of the internal drive electronics displays on the autoloader LCD. This is not
the same ID as seen by the NonStop server.
4. The value of the internal drive configuration switches is shown. It should be FF1.
5. A self-test message displays on the 5242-ACL autoloader LCD.
6. The Insert Mag message appears on 5242-ACL autoloader's LCD indicating that the tape
drive is ready for operation.
If the magazine is inserted (but not loaded) during the power-up sequence, a message
prompts you to close the door. The drive is ready for operation when the Insert Mag
message appears on the autoloader LCD. Load a cartridge by inserting it into the slot until
the loader takes it in automatically. If an error message appears during the power-up
sequence, see Troubleshooting the 5242 and 5242-ACL Tape Drives on page 17.
The SCSI ID identifies the tape drive to the NonStop server. To display the SCSI ID, use the
mode button and main LCD on the tape drive front panel. Tape drives attached to a NonStop
server use a SCSI ID of 5 (daisy-chained drives use IDs 5 and 4). Tape drives always shipped
with a SCSI ID of 5. Check the SCSI ID during installation, or after tape drive replacement.
The SCSI ID of a tape drive is stored in nonvolatile RAM. You can check or set the SCSI ID
using the mode button and main LCD on the tape drive front panel. Power must be cycled to
the tape drive to check or set the SCSI ID. The procedure is the same for both the 5242 and
5242-ACL. Familiarize yourself with the 5242 and 5242-ACL front-panel controls before
beginning this procedure and review Sections 2 and 3.
1. Press the mode switch while powering on the 5242 or 5242-ACL tape drive. The following
displays appear on the main LCD and cycle at a two second interval:
