Configuring the Tape Library
This section applies only to LTO-3 upgrades to native FC drives. For the library robotic controller
to be seen by hosts, the library configuration must be updated. Once the following steps have been
completed, the library controller will be presented to host systems across the same target ID as the
tape drive.
1 With the library powered on, navigate the Operator Panel to Setup Config Slots.
2 Change the Mode setting to Lun.
If you have two FC tape drives and want to set the library up as two logical partitions, change
the Mode setting to Lun-Lun. See the system documentation on support.dell.com for
additional information about partitioning.
3 The library will automatically reboot to enable the new configuration.
