2.3.2.2 Set SCSI Parity Checking

2-18
Use the SCSI parity option to turn parity checking on the tape library on or off.
You must set parity for each device. All devices on the SCSI bus must have the
same parity setting.
When parity is on (default, the display panel reads SCSI Parity Off), the tape
library checks all data coming across the SCSI bus for parity. When you
change SCSI parity, it changes both the current and the saved Mode Select
parity parameters to the new value.

To set parity checking

1. Disable security (the display panel must read Set Security On when
security is disabled).
If the display panel reads Set Security Off, security is turned on. See "To
enable or disable security" on page 2-22.
2. Select the Configuration Menu by pressing
3. Select Set Parity by pressing
4. Turn SCSI parity checking on or off by pressing
←
ON or to turn parity checking OFF.
If you see SCSI Parity Off on the display panel, SCSI parity checking is
turned on. When SCSI parity checking is turned off, the display panel reads
SCSI Parity On. In other words, the next state, not the current state, is
displayed.
