Installing a Tape Drive CRU
6. Perform one of the following actions:
7. (NonStop Himalaya K-series servers only) If you installed a second drive CRU into
a module and both drive CRUs use the same 3216 controller, reconnect the
daisy-chain cable that links the two drive CRUs.
8. Bring up the paths to the controller using either the PUP UP command (for
NonStop Himalaya K-series servers) or the SCF START command (for NonStop
Himalaya S-series servers).
9. Run TMDS diagnostics (for NonStop Himalaya K-series servers) or the TSM
Service Application or SCF (for NonStop Himalaya S-series servers) to test the
tape drive CRU.
When using TMDS, you can use the TMDS TEST command to verify the operation
of the drive. For a brief summary, see The TMDS TAPE Subsystem (NonStop
Himalaya K-Series Servers) on page 5-1, or for more detail, see the information
about the TMDS TAPE subsystem in the TMDS Reference Manual.
For a brief summary of TSM Service Application tests, see Testing a Tape Device
on page 3-46.
When using SCF, you can use the SCF STATUS, DETAIL command to show the
processor numbers for the tape process, the logical device number of the tape
drive, and the current state of the tape drive. For more detail on SCF commands,
see the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem.
10. If the drive CRU has an ACL, install the cleaning cartridge in the ACL before using
the drive. See Installing the Cleaning Cartridge in the ACL on page 3-44.
11. Use the procedure under Checking and Setting the Device ID on page 3-41 to
check the device ID and reset it, if necessary.
If the Drive CRU Attaches to Action
MFC
(NonStop Himalaya K-series server)
Connect the cable to the drive CRU SCSI
port. See Connecting a NonStop
Himalaya K-Series SCSI Cable to the
Drive CRU on page 3-30.
3216 controller
(NonStop Himalaya K-series server)
Connect the fiber-optic cable to the BEB.
See Connecting a Fiber-Optic Cable to the
BEB on page 3-28.
PMF CRU
(NonStop Himalaya S-series server)
Connect the SCSI cable to the drive CRU
SCSI port. See Connecting a NonStop
Himalaya S-Series SCSI Cable to the
Drive CRU on page 3-32.
S-PIC on 6760 ServerNet/DA
(NonStop Himalaya S-series server)
Connect the fiber-optic or SCSI cable to
the F-PIC or S-PIC in the 6760 adapter.
See the 6760 ServerNet/DA Manual.
F-PIC on 6760 ServerNet/DA
(NonStop Himalaya S-series server)
Connect the SCSI cable to the S-PIC. See
the 6760 ServerNet/DA Manual.
