    _________________________________________________________ MOUNTING THE STANDS For safety reasons, the DISC 3-7000 Optical Libraries must not be operated without the stands. To mount the stands of the NSM/DISC 3-7000 Optical Libraries two persons are needed. •Tilt the Optical Library a little bit to the left and push the two stands for the right side into the holes at the bottom of the Optical Library until the stands „click“...

    Function of ID Switch 0 RS232 mode RS232 ID (robotik) SCSI mode SCSI ID (robotik) DISC internal ------------- use only RS232 MODE The RS 232 mode has to be selected if the robotic of the Optical Library should be controlled via the serial interface (RS 232). The factory default for the RS 232 ID is 00.
  • Page 20: Scsi Mode

    The ID range for the robotic SCSI ID is 0 to 7, default setting is 0. The SCSI mode must be selected if the DISC Optical Library is controlled via the SCSI bus. The ID switch is used to select the robotics SCSI ID. The range for SCSI IDs is 00 to 07.

    _________________________________________________________ CONNECTING THE ROBOTIC TO A HOST COMPUTER CONNECTING THE SERIAL Robotic INTERFACE Turn off the Optical Library and the host computer when connecting the cables. Depending on the software which is used to control the robotic of the Optical Library, the serial interface (RS 232) of the Optical Library needs to be connected to the host computer.

    _________________________________________________________ CONNECTING THE SCSI Robotic INTERFACE to a SCSI Turn off the Optical Library and the host computer when connecting the SCSI cables. Make sure that all connectors are fixed correctly and tight! Loose contacts will cause serious problems! After every disconnection of the SCSI cable(s) Optical Library and host computer have to be rebooted! It is not possible to daisychain the SCSI buses or to connect further external SCSI devices! The LVD bus at the DISCx000 is internally...
  • Page 23: Connecting Via Lvd To Usb Converter

    CONNECTING THE Robotic via the LVD SCSI to USB CONVERTER With a SAS-based DISC library, the external LVD connector on the back of the DISC library will internally only be connected to the robotics controller. If a SAS-based DISC library was purchased with an LVD SCSI to USB converter, the robotics controller can be connected to a USB port and in that case an LVD HBA is not needed.
  • Page 24: Connecting The Drives To A Host Computer

    SCSI technologies (like LVD SCSI). This may cause the configuration of a system like a DISC optical library to be confusing. The main difference with SAS is that each target device will have its own link to the HBA, instead of multiple devices sharing a parallel bus like LVD SCSI.
  • Page 25 _________________________________________________________ SAS Host Bus Adapter (HBA) The DISC libraries have been qualified to work with the following LSI Logic Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) • The LSISAS380IE (PCI-Express) or LSISAS380IX (PCI-X) • The LSISAS3442E-R (PCI-Express) or LSISAS3422X-R (PCI-X) The LSISAS380IE and the LSISAS380IX HBAs have two SFF-8088 type mini SAS connectors.

    LSI Logic HBA used and which external SAS connector is used. Please not that drive 1 is always the lowest drive in a DISC library. When using an LSISAS3442E/X or the lower connector of the LSISAS3801e/X HBA, the target IDs will be assigned to the drives as shown in Table 1.
  • Page 27 SCSI Target ID DISC Library with 4 to 8 Drives When Connecting a DISC library with 4 to 8 drives, it is recommended to use a LSISAS3801E/X HBA. The external SAS cable should be connected as shown in Figure 1: •...
  • Page 28 _________________________________________________________ DISC Library with more than 8 Drives When connecting a DISC Library with more than 8 drives at least two HBAs are needed. As an example we will be configure a DISC7000 with 10 drives. It is recommended to use two LSISAS3801E/X HBAs. It is important to connect the external SAS cables to the correct SAS connectors.
