SuperLoader 3 Quick Start Guide Preparing the Host and Verifying the Connection 0 If necessary, install a SCSI host adapter, software, and compatible drivers. Refer to the manuals for the host computer and SCSI host adapter for detailed instructions. In addition, follow these general guidelines: · When the host server is powered on, install software, and/or drivers that are compatible with the autoloader (see Installing the Device Drivers). Software compatibility information is available at www. quantum. com. Most backup software packages require an additional module to communicate with the autoloader robotics. If the host server is connected to a network, check with the system administrator before turning off power. Use proper procedures to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Use wrist-grounding straps and antistatic mats when handling internal components. Make sure that the host server has an open expansion slot. Make sure that your backup application supports the SCSI host adapter. Depending on the server configuration, you may need to change the SCSI ID of the autoloader. Ensure the autoloader is properly terminated.
