Completing the 6760 Adapter and Modular Tape Subsystem
Configuration Form
If you plan to connect a tape drive CRU to a 6760 ServerNet device adapter, you
document the configuration using a 6760 Adapter and Modular Tape Subsystem
Configuration Form. This form documents configurable entities associated with the
connectors on a 6760 adapter. It also provides information about the tape drive to be
connected.
Figure 2-5 shows an example of a completed 6760 Adapter and Modular Tape
Subsystem Configuration Form. For a blank version of this configuration form, refer to
the 6760 ServerNet/DA Manual.
To complete a SAC information block on the form for each SAC you plan to install in
the 6760 adapter:
•
Enter the SAC name in (group, module, slot) form, for example:
SNDA.Sac-1.Grp-2.Mod-1.Slot-53
•
Enter the SAC number.
•
Enter the Cable ID tag, as found on the cable.
You do not need to configure a 6760 adapter using SCF. When you install a 6760
adapter in an appropriate slot, it is automatically added to the system configuration
database.
The name of the adapter is derived by combining the name of the storage subsystem
manager process ($ZZSTO), an indication of the adapter type (SNDA), and the
physical location of the adapter. For example, a 6760 adapter located in group 02,
module 1, slot 53 would have the name:
$ZZSTO.#SNDA.GRP-2.MOD-1.SLOT-53
You can use this name in SCF STATUS and INFO commands.
For instructions on completing the rest of the 6760 Adapter and Modular Tape
Subsystem Configuration Form, refer to the 6760 ServerNet/DA Manual.
