To reconfigure TL895 SCSI bus configuration, follow these steps:
1.
Remove the SCSI bus cable from one drive to be daisy chained.
2.
Remove the terminator from the other drive to be daisy chained.
3.
Ensure that the drive that will be the last drive on the SCSI bus has a
terminator installed.
4.
Install a SCSI bus jumper cable (part number 6210567) on the open
connectors of the two drives to be daisy chained.
Figure 8–13 shows an example of a TL895 that has tape drives 1, 3, and 5
daisy chained to tape drives 2, 4, and 6 respectively.
