StorageLibrary T40+ Series Installation and User Guide 37
Connecting Fibre Channel Cables
Use this procedure if you are installing a library that includes Fibre Channel tape drives.
Figure 25. StorageLibrary Cabling (Fibre Channel interface)
1. Connect the fibre cables to the tape drive.
2. Attach one end of the fibre cable to the fibre port on each tape drive.
3. Attach the other end of the cable to the host, switch or hub.
Note
The fibre cable can be connected from the tape drive to a switch rather than a
host.
4. Connect your Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the back of the library for remote access to
the library via the remote management interface. Push the cable until it snaps into place. Connect
the other end to a normal 10/100 BaseT Ethernet outlet.
5. Connect a power cord to the outlet on the power supply at the back of the library.
6. Power on the library by turning on the rear power switch.
7. Power up the host system.
8. Verify communication with all devices on the bus.
9. Configure your library using the commands on the front panel. For configuration information,
please refer to Configuring the Library.
