Note: These numbers are the world wide NODE names for the
library and tape drives. The World Wide Port Name is very
similar to the World Wide Node Name, however, the last hex
byte is 01h greater than the last hex byte of the node name.

To verify the tape drive installation, you should verify that the library and
tape drives are recognized from the host or from the SAN switch.
If the SAN switch is available, it is possible to verify connectivity by
connecting to the switch. There are two ways to directly access the SAN
switch:
• Connect Via a Telnet Session
