Record the WWNs for the media changer and tape drives in

table 3

.

• Repeat

step 6

for all tape drives in the library

or

• Add

04h

to the last hex byte to derive the WWN for the next tape

drive.
Example:

Drive 0

WWN is 50:05:08:40:16:6B:

00

,

Drive 1

WWN will be

50:05:08:40:16:6B:

04

,

Drive 2

WWN will be 50:05:08:40:16:6B:

08

.

To determine the WWN for the media changer, subtract

01h

from the next

to last hex byte of the WWN for

Drive 0

.

Example:

Drive 0

WWN is 50:05:08:40:16:

6B

:00,

Media Changer

WWN will

be 50:05:08:40:16:

6A

:00.

Verifying Library
Connectivity

0

To verify the tape drive installation, you should verify that the library and

tape drives are recognized from the host or from the SAN switch.
If the SAN switch is available, it is possible to verify connectivity by

connecting to the switch. There are two ways to directly access the SAN

switch:

Connect Via a Telnet Session

Note:

These numbers are the world wide NODE names for the

library and tape drives. The World Wide Port Name is very

similar to the World Wide Node Name, however, the last hex

byte is 01h greater than the last hex byte of the node name.
