Troubleshooting and Diagnostics
131000ux/1900ux/2300ux and 3800ux/7100ux Optical Jukebox Service Manual
Host computer system does not
recognize the jukebox or the drives
Ensure the jukebox is not in an error
or failed state. If so, troubleshoot the
error before continuing.
Ensure the jukebox is connected and
powered on. The jukebox must be
on when booting the host computer
for the jukebox to be recognized.
If the jukebox is the last device on
the SCSI bus, check that it has been
terminated and that the maximum
cable length has not been
exceeded.
Check SCSI ID assignments and
resolve any conflicts.
Ensure you are connected to the
correct SCSI bus type. UDO
jukeboxes are LVDS devices.
If using a narrow (8-bit) HBA, make
sure that all addresses are in the
range 0 through 7.
For Windows operating systems, use
the device manager to rediscover
the jukebox.
For HP-UX, use ioscan to verify
that the HBA and attached devices
are claimed.
For other operating systems, refer to
the system administrators guide for
diagnosing missing peripherals.
Check that the application software
is compatible with the jukebox.
Check that the device is present on
the system using HP StorageWorks
Library & Tape Tools, available from
http://www.hp.com / support/tape
tools
.
Power cycle the jukebox and power
down the host. Wait until the
jukebox completes its power cycle
before powering up the host.
Connection
Other SCSI devices no longer work
when the jukebox is installed
Check SCSI ID assignments and
resolve any conflicts.
Ensure that the SCSI ID for the HBA
is different from that of the jukebox.
Check for proper SCSI cabling and
termination.
Ensure the maximum cable length
for the bus has not been exceeded
(12 meters for LVDS and 3 meters
for SE).
