Descriptions of Configuration Options

The items available on the Configuration Menu are as follows:
Set Data Format: This setting enables you to 1) set the data format to Auto Selection,
THZ01, THZ02, DLT2000, DLT2000XT, DLT4000; or DLT7000; and 2) enable or disable
data compression. Compression can not be enabled when either THZ01 or THZ02 format is
in use. This setting applies to the next or the currently loaded cartridge only. An unload
command returns to the default. This setting does not display the current format of the loaded
tape. Use the Show Status Menu for this purpose. The defaults are Auto Selection and
compression Disabled.
Set SCSI: This setting enables you to 1) enable or disable the library robotics SCSI bus
parity checking, and 2) set the SCSI addresses of the drives and the library robotics. The
defaults are: parity enabled; Library Bus ID = 6. The designators DLT 1 through DLTn refer
to the first through nth drives, counting from top to bottom. The actual designator used by the
system depends on the number of drives in the system and the placement of the module in the
system;
Set Element Base: This setting allows you to set the base addresses of each of the four SCSI
elements of the module. In order to identify sources and destinations in commands to the
robotics, the Library System is divided into elements, each of which is assigned a separate
designator or element address. The Transport Element is the robotics mechanism itself; the
Storage Elements are the slots in the magazines; the Transfer Elements are the drives, and the
Import/Export Element is the mail slot or slots. The Module reports these settings in response
to the SCSI Mode Sense command, in the Element Address Assignment Page. The defaults
are Transport element base = 0000; Storage element base = 0001, Transfer element base =
00F0, and Import/Export element base = 00E0.
Set Identification: This setting enables you to specify the response of the Module's robotics
to the SCSI Inquiry command in the Vendor ID and the Product ID fields. The defaults are:
Vendor ID = OVERLAND; Product ID = LXB.
Set Date: Enables you to set the system's calendar.
Set Time: Enables you to set the system's clock.
