5. In SMTP Server Address, enter the IP Address of the SMTP server associated
with the email address.
Preparing the Host
Follow these general guidelines:
1. Ensure that your backup application supports the SCSI, SAS, or Fibre Channel
host bus adapter (HBA).
2. If the host server is connected to a network, check with the system
administrator before turning host power OFF.
3. Install a suitably rated HBA. Remember that if there are any single-ended (SE)
devices on the same SCSI bus, the entire SCSI bus will negotiate down to SE
speed and severely degrade performance and limit cable length.
4. Ensure that LUN scanning is enabled on the SCSI host adapter.
5. Ensure that Fibre Channel Tape Support is enabled on the Fibre Channel HBA
if installing a library with a Fibre Channel drive.
6. Ensure that SAS support is enabled on the SAS HBA if installing a library with
a SAS drive.
Verifying the Connection
1. Depending on the server configuration, you may need to change the SCSI ID or
Fibre Channel Loop ID of the library, if the current ID is the same as another
device on the bus.
2. When the host server is powered ON, install the software and/or driver(s) that
are compatible with the library. Backup software packages may require
additional software or licensing to communicate with the library accessor.
3. If this is a SCSI attachment, ensure the library is properly terminated. If the
library is the only SCSI device, other than the SCSI host adapter on the selected
SCSI bus, it must be terminated. Likewise, if the library is physically the last
SCSI device on the SCSI bus, it must be terminated. Only the devices physically
located at the beginning and end of the SCSI bus should be terminated.
4. Confirm that the host server operating system recognized the library. In
Microsoft
®
Windows
®
XP or Windows Server 2003, you can verify this by going
to: Settings → Control Panel → System → Hardware → Device Manager → Tape
Drive and/or Medium Changer .
For more information on verifying the connection of SCSI devices, see the
operating system documentation.
