Connect Parallel SCSI Cables

Perform this step if your library contains parallel SCSI tape drives.

There are two recommended ways to cable SCSI tape drives: two tape

drives per SCSI bus or one tape drive per SCSI bus.

To connect two tape drives per SCSI bus:

Connect one end of the SCSI cable to the top SCSI port of the

bottom tape drive. Then connect the other end of the cable to the

bottom SCSI port of the tape drive above. To avoid possible

performance issues, do not connect more than two tape drives per

SCSI bus.

Use another SCSI cable to connect the bottom tape drive of the SCSI

bus to your host system.

Use a SCSI terminator to terminate the top tape drive of the SCSI

bus.

To connect one tape drive per SCSI bus:

Use a SCSI cable to connect the bottom port of the tape drive to your

host system.

Attach a SCSI terminator to terminate the top port of the tape drive.
