Overview of Tape Drives
Overview of Tape Drives
Tape drives are external devices that connect to a NonStop S-series server using one
of these methods:
•
Through a 6760 ServerNet device adapter (ServerNet/DA) for G06.01 and
subsequent G-series RVUs. For more information about ServerNet/DA, refer to
Section 7, ServerNet/DA: Monitoring and Recovery.
•
Through the SCSI passthrough terminator (Figure 10-1) on the differential SCSI
port of an I/O multifunction (IOMF) CRU or processor multifunction (PMF) CRU.
Note. On currently manufactured PMF CRUs, the SCSI terminator is located inside the
differential SCSI port of the PMF CRU and is not visible.
