Attaching a Tape Drive to the NonStop S-Series Server
To attach a tape drive to any PMF CRU or IOMF CRU:
1. Determine which PMF CRU or IOMF CRU should be connected to the tape drive.
2. Using the SCSI cable connector with the thumbscrews, plug the other end of the
SCSI cable into the differential SCSI port on the appropriate PMF CRU, IOMF
CRU, or IOMF 2 CRU.

NonStop S7000, S7400, S70000, and S72000 PMF CRUs and IOMF CRUs
are equipped with an external SCSI passthrough terminator. Attach the SCSI
cable to this SCSI passthrough terminator, which is factory-installed on the
differential SCSI port.
