Tape Drives
Tape Drives
An external tape drive is connected to a server through a SCSI cable to the differential
SCSI port on a PMF CRU, IOMF CRU, or plug-in card (PIC) on a 6760 ServerNet
device adapter (ServerNet/DA).
For information about tape drives connected to 6760 ServerNet device adapters, see
the 6760 ServerNet/DA Manual.
For information about a particular tape drive, see the manual for that product.
Note. For a PMF CRU or IOMF CRU to operate properly, a SCSI passthrough terminator must
be attached to the differential SCSI port. This SCSI passthrough terminator is internal on
PMF 2 CRUs and IOMF 2 CRUs. Do not remove the external SCSI passthrough terminator
from any other models of PMF CRU or IOMF CRU.
