might be required to receive warranty service.

The following section is an overview of the installation instructions.

For more detailed information and a list of tested server backup and

restore software, see “Backup and Restore Server Software” on

page 2-2.

CAUTION: Read the Safety Information in Appendix A,

page 3-1, before installing this product.

Installing the Drive

Follow these instructions to install your tape drive:

1. All devices attached to a SCSI adapter must have a unique SCSI

identification number (ID). Select a SCSI ID for the tape drive in

the range of 0 to 6. The SCSI ID must be one that is supported

by your SCSI host adapter. The tape drive is shipped with the

SCSI ID preset to 0. Do not assign an ID of 7 because this is

normally used for the SCSI host adapter.

2. Turn off all attached devices. Turn off the computer. Unplug the

1GB equals one billion bytes when referring to storage capacity.

power cords for the computer and all attached devices; then open

the computer.

3. Before opening the static-protective bag containing the tape drive,

touch the bag to an unpainted metal surface on the computer for

at least two seconds. This will drain any accumulated static

electricity from the bag and your body. Remove the drive from

the static-protective bag. If you must put the drive down, place

the drive on the static-protective bag. Do not touch any exposed

components on the drive.

To install the drive, refer to the following drive backpanel

illustration.

.1/SCSI connection

.2/Jumper block

.3/Power connection

4. Use the jumper block .2/ to set your SCSI ID. The following

illustration shows the ON and OFF positions for the jumpers.

Jumper ON Jumper OFF

Pin 7 Omitted

.1/SCSI ID area

.2/Active Termination Enabled

.3/Termination Power On

Area .1/ is where you will set your SCSI ID. Refer to the

following table in order to determine the settings required:

All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

5. Determine if you have a 3.5-inch bay or a 5.25-inch bay for

installation. If you have a 5.25-inch bay available, use the tape

drive as it is, or you can use the black 5.25-inch bezel which is

included in your option package. If you only have a 3.5-inch bay

available, remove the side rails on the tape drive and replace the

5.25- bezel with either of the included 3.5-inch bezels, as

illustrated in the following picture.

6. Mount the tape drive in either a horizontal or vertical position.

The drive has two sets of mounting holes to allow for a number

Pins 5-6 Pins 3-4 Pins 1-2 SCSI ID of mounting positions. There are two holes .1/ .2/ in each set;

use only one set of mounting holes. The following illustration

shows the mounting holes on only one side of the drive.

Insert each of the screws through a drive-bay mounting hole into

a threaded screw hole on the tape drive; then tighten with a

screwdriver.

7. To install the cables, refer to the following illustration:

When you connect SCSI drives to the SCSI adapter, start with the

SCSI connector on the cable that is farthest from the adapter.

Then, with each additional device, work your way in from the far

end back towards the adapter. Connecting the devices in this

order ensures the best possible signal quality. Connect the SCSI

and power cables to the tape drive connectors. Ensure that pin 1

of the SCSI cable aligns with pin 1 of the SCSI connector. Pin 1

is usually a different color than the other pins so that it can be

easily identified. If your SCSI cable is a different size than the

connector on your tape drive, use the converter that is included in

the option package. For more information, see “Step 5.

Connecting Cables and Terminating the Chain” on page 2-6.

8. If the tape drive is the last device on the SCSI chain, the chain

must be terminated at the drive. To terminate the SCSI chain,

you must set the Active Termination Enabled jumper to ON. To

locate the Active Termination Enabled jumper, refer to the

illustration on page 1-2. There is also an illustration on page 1-2

which shows how to set jumpers to ON or OFF.

9. Replace the computer cover and secure it in place. Reconnect the

power cord and any other signal cables. Turn on all attached

devices; then turn on the computer. Ensure that the appropriate

advanced SCSI programming interface (ASPI) device drivers are

installed to support the tape drive. These device drivers are

usually provided with the SCSI adapter. You might need to

reconfigure your SCSI adapter. See the documentation that

comes with your computer or adapter.

10. After the power is turned on, or after any power reset, the tape

drive performs a power-on self test. This is indicated by both

LEDs blinking for about 5 seconds. It is important to make sure

the drive is empty during the self-test. Do not try to insert a

cartridge into the tape drive during the self-test.

11. Install your backup and restore software. Follow the installation

and operating instructions included with your software to begin

using the tape drive. For more information, see “Backup and

Restore Server Software” on page 2-2.

12. If your computer does not recognize your tape drive during the

computer’s power-on self test (POST) or if you receive startup

errors, run the configuration-setup utility program as described in

the documentation that comes with your computer.

Using the Drive

The following section is an overview of the instructions for using your

tape drive. For more detailed information, see “Using the Drive” on

page 2-8.

The indicator lights on the drive front panel are:

Left (green): This light indicates cartridge status. When the light

is on, the cartridge is inserted and ready for use. When flashing,

the drive requires cleaning or the cartridge needs to be replaced.

Right (amber): This light indicates drive status. When the light

is on, the drive is reading or writing to tape. When the light is

flashing, a hardware fault has occurred. If this happens, the drive

might need to be replaced. See the warranty in Appendix E, or

contact your IBM reseller.

For writing data, use only IBM 59H3465 data cartridges. For more

information on compatible cartridges, see Appendix B.

On the back of the data cartridge, set the switch to the right for

write-protect or to the left for write-enable. Insert the data cartridge

into the drive. When the left indicator light comes on, the tape drive

is ready for read and write operations. To unload a cartridge, press

the unload button.

When the left indicator light flashes, the tape drive requires cleaning.

Clean the drive as soon as possible after the indicator light begins

flashing. To clean the tape drive, insert the cleaning cartridge which

comes with your drive. For more information, see “Cleaning the

Drive” on page 2-10.
