Installing the drive in IBM servers The tape drive is compatible with the Netfinity  8500 or 8500R 4 , Netfinity 7000 8 , 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 “In[...]

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[...]

Step 3. Setting the SCSI ID, termination, and parity Use the following illustration to locate the SCSI configuration jumper blocks. 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, attach a SCS[...]

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 [...]

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 qual[...]

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 Append[...]

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 Cl[...]

.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 [...]

 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 f[...]

The front of the cartridge has an orange write-protect indicator .1/ , and a write-protect switch .2/ to prevent accidental erasure. Slide the switch to the right to write-enable .3/ or to the left to write-protect .4/ . You can change the write-protect switch before or after inserting the tape. If you change the write-protect switch while the tape[...]

.5/ Press the Unload button and wait for the green Operate Handle indicator to light. .6/ Lift the Cartridge Insert/Release handle up to pop the tape cartridge out. .7/ Remove the tape cartridge from the drive. .8/ Push the Cartridge Insert/Release handle down. When you press the Unload button, the tape drive performs the following:  Completes a[...]

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[...]
