Setting/Changing the Library’s SCSI Address

The SCSI address (0...7) of the library can be set using the

SCSI

Address/Robotics

sub-menus.

Setting/Changing the Tape Drive SCSI Addresses

This function is used to set the SCSI address (0...7 for libraries with

DLT 2000 or DLT 4000 tape drives, and 0...15 for libraries with DLT

7000 tape drives) of each tape drive in the library. This can be done

through the

Defining the Library’s Power-Up State

You have the option of defining the starting condition of the library,

either on-line or standby (off-line), after power-up, self-tests and

using the

sub-menu.

The automatic drive cleaning feature has two modes of drive cleaning

support: Host Initiated and Fully Automatic.
