Connecting cables for Data Verification
To configure the library for Data Verification, create a private network for the library and the tape drives
that will be used for Data Verification.
Procedure
1. If necessary, install a switch with enough Ethernet ports for the library and the tape drives that will be
used for Data Verification.
For example, if two tape drives will be used for Data Verification, the switch must have at least three
available ports.
2. Using an Ethernet cable, connect the library DIAG port to the switch.
