Chapter 3. Configuring the Library

26

The default position of the configuration switch (0) identifies the library and tape
drives with the following information:

• Library Inquiry (or Name): Spectra 215

• Drive Manufacturer: Sony

• Drive Model: SDX-300C or SDX-500C or SDX-700C

• Drive DIP Switch: 0

These values, returned by the SCSI INQUIRY command, inform the host computer how
to communicate with the library and tape drives. Some operating systems require
custom configurations in order to communicate with the library. Customizing the
library’s configuration is the subject of the remaining sections in this chapter.

For the latest information about operating system specific installation procedures, see
your operating system documentation, or see the Server Preparation Document for
Spectra Logic Libraries
, an on-line document located on the Spectra Logic Web site at

www.spectralogic.com/support/support_docs.cfm

Note:

All configuration settings are controlled through the configuration
switch on the back panel of the library. The Configuration Switch
Settings table on page 28 summarizes the available configuration
switch settings.
