Overview Of Qip Upgrade Process - Spectra Logic T-Series Spectra T120 Supplementary Manual

Overview of QIP Upgrade Process

The G4/G5 QIP lets you connect your Spectra T120 or T950 library to 4Gb Fibre Channel HBAs and
switches, which can support data transmission rates of up to 4 gigabits per second.
The entire upgrade process requires only these steps, described in more detail through this guide:
1. Remove the G2/G3 QIP.
2. Change the pin configuration in the QIP bay.
3. Install the new G4/G5 QIP.
4. Power on the library, which is now optionally networked into a 4Gb Fibre Channel HBA or
switch.
5. Check your library firmware. Make sure it is revision 9.8 or higher. If it isn't, upgrade your library
firmware.
6. Return the G2/G3 QIP you just removed.
