Installing the drive in IBM servers 4 8 The tape drive is compatible with the Netfinity 8500 or 8500R , Netfinity 7000 , Netfinity 5500, and Netfinity 5000 servers. For instructions on installing the tape drive in a server, go to the “Installing Internal Drives” section in the server’s User’s Handbook and follow the directions for “Installing a 5.25-inch Removable-Media Drive.” Note: The server User’s Handbook instructions refer specifically to installing a half-high drive in a single bay in t

Installing the drive in other computers Follow these steps to install the tape drive in other computers. Step 1. Selecting a SCSI ID Each device on a SCSI bus must have a unique SCSI ID. You can select a SCSI ID from 0 to 6 for the tape drive. The SCSI ID must be supported by your SCSI adapter. Refer to your SCSI adapter documentation for the range and the relative priority of the IDs supported. The tape drive is shipped with the SCSI ID preset to 5. Follow these guidelines to select a SCSI ID:

Step 3. Setting the SCSI ID, termination, and parity Use the following illustration to locate the SCSI configuration jumper blocks. Front Bezel SCSI ID Connector Block Pin Pair 1 / 2 A jumper must always be placed across Pin Pair 9 / 10 if any SCSI ID other than the default (5) is selected. If the tape drive is the last device on the SCSI bus, the bus must be terminated at the drive. Some SCSI cables provide self termination and do not require terminators. To terminate the bus at the drive, atta

If you choose the default SCSI address of 5, proceed to Step 4. If you need to change the SCSI address, use the SCSI ID jumper block to set your SCSI ID. Remove and reposition jumpers to set the ID. If necessary, use a pair of flat-nose pliers to remove the jumpers. The following illustration shows how to set the jumper block for each ID. Use the jumpers that come with your tape drive. 02 1 3 4 5 7 6 8 9 10 11 12 14 15 13 Step 4. Mounting the drive Mount the tape drive; then attach the SCSI and

To attach the SCSI and power cables to the tape drive: 1. Locate the SCSI cable on your computer (a 68-pin (wide) ribbon cable with one end connected to the SCSI adapter) and find the next available connector that is farthest from the adapter. Use all empty bus connectors beginning with the one farthest from the adapter to ensure better signal quality. Note: The SCSI adapter might be part of the computer system board or might be an adapter installed in an expansion slot. 2. Attach the SCSI cable

If all the indicators on either side of the tape drive blink in unison, there is a problem with the tape drive. Press the Unload button on the right side of the drive front panel to eject any tape that might be inserted and to reset the drive. If the problem persists, turn off the computer; then turn it back on. If the problem continues, see Appendix D, “Problem solving” on page 2-4 for further steps. Step 9. Installing backup and restore software To use the drive, you must install an appropriat

Understanding the status indicators The indicators on the right side of the drive front panel are: .1/ Write Protect (orange): When this indicator is on, the tape is write protected. .2/ Tape in Use (yellow): When this indicator is blinking, the tape is in motion. When this indicator lights steadily, the tape is loaded and ready for use. .3/ Use Cleaning Tape (yellow): When this indicator is on, the drive head needs cleaning or the tape is damaged.

.12/ 20.0 (yellow): When this indicator lights steadily, the tape is recorded at 20.0 GB capacity. When this light is blinking, it indicates that you requested this capacity. .13/ 10.0/15.0 (yellow): When this indicator lights steadily, the tape is recorded at 10.0 GB or 15.0 GB capacity. When this indicator is blinking, it indicates you requested this capacity. If the indicators flash in unison, it indicates a tape drive hardware failure. Try to reset the drive by following instructions given i

The ambient operating temperature for the tape cartridge is 10°C to 40°C (50°F to 104°F) and the ambient operating relative humidity (noncondensing) is 20% to 80%. If storage or transportation of a tape cartridge has exposed it to conditions outside these ambient values, allow the tape cartridge to acclimate to proper operating conditions for a 24-hour period before using. Place labels only in the front slide slot of the cartridge. Placing a label on the top, bottom, sides, or rear of the ca

Resetting the drive The reset procedure rewinds the tape and clears the buffer of previous tape drive commands and data. To reset the tape drive, press the Unload button, or turn the computer off and back on again. If you reset the tape drive while a cartridge is loaded, the tape rewinds to the beginning. The reset might take as long as two minutes if the tape is positioned near the end. After the drive has been reset, tape operation starts from the beginning of the data cartridge. After resetti
