Check system prerequisites. page 1-2 Step 1: Check the Drive's SCSI ID Check the tape drive's SCSI ID on the SCSI ID switch on the rear panel. If necessary change it from the default of 3 by pressing the indented + or - buttons above and below the SCSI ID number. Use a ball-point pen or similar pointed object. [. . . ] Refer to Chapter 1 for installation instructions. HP SureStore DAT Installing an "eU" Model Drive (external for Unix) Before You Start: Check the Contents of the Box The following equipment is supplied with your HP SureStore DAT drive. (See Chapter 1 for the contents supplied with the HP SureStore DAT40 drive. ) u HP SureStore DAT drive with SCSI terminator block attached to back u DDS-format data cartridge u Cleaning cartridge u SCSI cable* u HP SureStore Tape CD-ROM containing: · TapeAlert utility · Driver software · Electronic User's Guide u Power cable* u Installation Guide (Please discard unneeded languages in recycling bin. ) u Power supply u Warranty Registration card and label If anything is damaged or missing, contact the delivery company or your supplier. * Hewlett-Packard supplies the correct SCSI cable for your tape drive and the correct power cable for each country. Your cables may differ from these illustrations. 2-2 HP SureStore DAT Installing an "eU" Model Drive (external for Unix) Before You Start: Check System Prerequisites To install and use your new tape drive, you will need the following: · SCSI host adapter · SCSI cable · Backup software that supports the tape drive SCSI Host Adapter You need a properly installed and configured SCSI host adapter or a builtin SCSI controller on your computer's motherboard (SCSI-2 or SCSI-3 compliant). If you would like more information on configuring your SCSI bus, read the "SCSI Background" topic in the "Before You Start" section of the electronic User's Guide on the CD-ROM. SCSI Cable If the SCSI cable supplied with your drive is not appropriate for your computer's external SCSI connector, you will need to order a new cable. (For HP part numbers and descriptions, see the electronic DAT Media and Orderable Accessories Guide on the HP SureStore Tape CD-ROM. ) ­ The cable provided with DAT8eU and DAT24eU drives will attach to a computer with a wide SCSI connector (68 pins). ­ The cable provided with Tape 5000eU drives will attach to a highdensity narrow SCSI connector (50 pins). Backup Software You need backup software that supports the drive. Applications usually recognize tape drives by their manufacturers' internal identifiers rather than their model numbers, so check the table below for the appropriate reference for your model. Drive Model HP SureStore Tape 5000 HP SureStore DAT8 HP SureStore DAT24 Internal Identifier HP 35480A HP C1533A HP C1537A 2-3 HP SureStore DAT Installing an "eU" Model Drive (external for Unix) Step 1: Check the Drive's SCSI ID Note Your HP SureStore DAT drive is shipped with a default SCSI ID of 3, but it can be assigned any unused ID between 1 and 6. 1 Check your current SCSI configuration and determine if you need to change the SCSI ID from the default of 3. On a UNIX system, examine your device files to check the SCSI IDs of existing devices. If you do not need to change the SCSI ID, check the drive's SCSI ID setting on the rear of the drive to be sure that it has not been inadvertently changed from the default of 3, then go to step 2 on page 2-5. Use a small screwdriver or a ball-point pen to press the indented SCSI ID selector buttons on the rear panel (see figure 2. 1) until the required value is displayed. Do not use a pencil because small bits of lead could contaminate the drive. Figure 2. 1 Rear panel of an external HP SureStore DAT drive Default SCSI ID setting = 3 SCSI ID selector Note Both the computer and the tape drive check SCSI IDs only at power-on. To change the SCSI ID after installation, power down both the tape drive and the computer, change the drive's SCSI ID, power up the tape drive, and then power up the computer. 2-4 HP SureStore DAT Installing an "eU" Model Drive (external for Unix) Step 2: Set the Configuration Switches 1 Check the "UNIX Configuration Instructions" in the electronic User's Guide on the HP SureStore Tape CD-ROM for specific advice for your operating system. See page 2-10 for more information about using the HP SureStore Tape CD-ROM. The following table summarizes the typical switch settings for different types of computer, but further details are provided in the electronic User's Guide. Switch Number System Type Default and most PC systems DEC systems HP systems (Series 700) IBM RS/6000 systems SCO/PC UNIX systems Silicon Graphics systems Sun systems 1 On On On On On On On 2 On On On On On On On 3 Off Off Off Off Off Off On 4 On On On On On On On 5 On On On On On On On 6 On On On Off On Off Off 7 On On On Off On Off Off 8 On Off On On On On On 2 If your UNIX configuration requires it, change the configuration switches located on the underside of the drive from the default settings shown in figure 2. 2. Figure 2. 2 Configuration switches (shown in default positions) = ON = OFF 2-5 HP SureStore DAT Installing an "eU" Model Drive (external for Unix) Step 3: Connect the SCSI Cable Caution To avoid damaging the computer or tape drive, ensure that both are powered off while you attach the SCSI cable. 1 Perform a normal system shutdown and turn off the computer and any connected peripherals. Disconnect power cables from the outlet. You may need a different cable if your computer's SCSI connector does not match the cable supplied with your drive. · If you have an HP SureStore Tape 5000eU model, a 50-pin narrow SCSI cable is provided. · If you have a DAT8eU or DAT24eU model, a 68-pin wide SCSI cable is provided. · If you do not have the appropriate cable for your computer, you will have to order one from your supplier. (For HP part numbers and descriptions, see the electronic DAT Media and Orderable Accessories Guide on the HP SureStore Tape CD-ROM. ) 2 Attach one end of the SCSI cable to the computer's external SCSI connector.
