MSL6000 series tape library user guide 139

Host does not detect the library.

Ensure that the HBA type matches the library type

(LVDS or single-ended SCSI) and is properly installed

and configured.

Check that the library is terminated and properly

cabled.

Check that the SCSI cable length limits have not

been exceeded.

NOTE:

SCSI cable length limits are very short on a

Single-Ended bus.

Ensure that the terminator is compatible with the

library (LVDS or single-ended SCSI).

Check for SCSI ID conflicts.

Check that the HBA is recognized by the operating

system and properly configured.

Check that the application software is compatible

with the library, and that it has all necessary patches

and updates.

Check that the device is properly installed and

configured using HP StorageWorks Library & Tape

Tools, available from

http://www.hp.com/support/tapetools

Power cycle the library and power down the host.

Wait until the library completes its power cycle

before powering up the host.

If using Fibre Channel, make sure you power on the

devices in the correct order (switch, hub, library,

host).

If using Fibre Channel, make sure there is not a

zoning issue that is preventing the host from seeing

the library.

If using Fibre Channel, make sure that the router sees

the library and/or drives.

Contact your authorized service provider.
