3. Find available SCSI device identifiers (SCSI IDs) for the tape library.
To check for available SCSI IDs, enter probe-scsi-all at the ok prompt. Note
which SCSI IDs are returned by this command. These SCSI IDs are already assigned.
The tape library uses three SCSI IDs. The default settings for the SCSI IDs are:
TABLE 4-1
Device/Unit
Tape Library
First internal tape drive
Second internal tape drive
If a device is already set to a default tape library SCSI ID, then you can change the
tape library's SCSI IDs later in this installation procedure.
4. Turn off the power to your system, your peripherals, and then your cabinet.
Caution – All power cords should remain plugged into each unit and wall outlets
to prevent damage to the equipment by static electricity from your body.
Caution – Always allow 10 seconds between turning off the power and turning it
back on again. This pause prevents possible damage to power supply components.
