The Quantum PX500 Series automated tape libraries are controlled by a host
computer via a SCSI LVD bus using the SCSI-3 medium changer command
set.
The Quantum PX500 Series allows for easy conversion from the SCSI host
interface to an iSCSI host interface. This document describes upgrading a
standard PX500 library equipped with a SCSI host interface to an iSCSI host
interface using a TC2201 Upgrade kit.
Once a TC2201 bridge option is installed and tested, the library operates

via the operator control panel (OCP) is unchanged.
