Configuring the Host System to Recognize the DLT2500XT Stacker
51
To set the SCSI ID, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the Display Mode button on the front of the stacker for about five
seconds until the SCSI ID SEL message displays, showing the factory-set SCSI ID.
For example:
SCSI ID SEL
SCSI ID 5
2. Press the Select button until the ID number you want displays.
3. Press the Display Mode button; the message LDR RDY displays.
4. To make the stacker recognize the SCSI ID, issue a bus reset or power-cycle the
stacker (turn the power off, and then on again).
Configuring the Host System to Recognize the DLT2500XT Stacker
Depending on whether you installed one or two DLT2500XT stackers, some
configuration steps may be necessary. The hinv command can confirm if your system
recognizes the new DLT2500XT stacker installed. Chapter 6 provides sample hinv
listings.
If you installed only a DLT2500XT stacker, it should be ready to use with your system. If
hinv does not see an externally mounted DLT2500XT stacker, please read “What to Do If
hinv Does Not See the Tape Drive” in Chapter 6.
For automated backup software operating instructions, please see the IRIX Networker
Administrator’s Guide and the NetWorker for IRIX User’s Guide.
For general information on backing up and restoring data using a tape drive, see the
Personal System Administration Guide. Additional information is also available in IRIX
Admin: Peripheral Devices.
Installing the SCSI Patch
Once you have installed the DLT2000XT tape drive in the chassis, load the CD supplied
with the tape drive. Follow information in the release notes for which patches to install
for your system; install the patch(es) with the Inst utility.
