Quantum Scalar 50 Tape Drive Installation Instructions Document 81-81769-01 B01 September 2007 Setting the Tape Drive SCSI ID 0 The next step in the installation procedure is to set the required SCSI ID for the new tape drive. Note: The library assigns SCSI IDs based on the drive order. Drive bay 1 = SCSI ID 1, drive bay 2 = SCSI ID 2, and so forth. It is only necessary to perform the steps in this section if you need to set the tape drive SCSI ID to an ID other than the default.

Note: • These numbers are the world wide NODE names for the library and tape drives. The World Wide Port Name is very similar to the World Wide Node Name, however, the last hex byte is 01h greater than the last hex byte of the node name.
