Standard Installation Procedure
Preparing for the Installation

In general, for a successful installation you should be familiar with:
• SCSI principles (bus termination, terminating power, addressing)
• The SCSI cable plan for your installation
• The SCSI addresses (IDs) already in use by your system
• The SCSI IDs chosen for the devices to be installed (library and drives)
• Fibre Channel principles (termination, cabling, addressing) if your library includes an
optional Fibre Channel router
