SCSI REFERENCE 1014826
CHAPTER 2—OVERVIEW OF THE LIBRARY AS A SCSI DEVICE
The physical components of the SCSI system consist of the following:
Initiator (host). A computer equipped with either a SCSI bus adapter card,
or Fibre Channel host bus adapter or switch, which allows it to send
commands, messages, and data across the bus to targets such as the tape
drive. The initiator can also receive data, messages, and status from the
targets.
Ta r g e t s . Devices capable of receiving commands from an initiator. The
library and its internal tape drive(s) are independent targets. The library is
the target for cartridge inventory and movement operations. The tape
drives are the target for read and write operations.
SCSI or FC interface. The library may use parallel SCSI bus communication
or a serial Fibre Channel communication interface. The communication
interface is the physical connection between the host and the target.
SCSI bus—The SCSI cables that connect the SCSI bus adapter card to
the tape drive and other devices form the SCSI bus and provide a
pathway for passing information between the initiator and the targets.
The tape drives use a wide, low-voltage differential (LVD) SCSI
configuration. The SCSI bus attached to the tape drive(s) installed in the
library must be terminated at both ends.
Each device attached to a SCSI bus has a unique SCSI ID that identifies
it during communication. In wide SCSI configurations, up to 16 devices
(including one or more initiators) can be attached to each SCSI bus. SCSI
IDs can range from 0 to 15 for each bus.
Fibre Channel—The serial Fibre Channel communication interface uses
pairs of optical fibers to connect the library to host bus adapters or to
Fibre Channel switches.
Note: The library communicates with the host through the SCSI interface of
the tape drive(s) via the ADI serial interface. The SCSI interface as
seen by the host is the SCSI interface of the tape drive
See the tape drive Product Manual for tape drive information.
See Automation/Drive Interface - Command (ADC) for ADI
information.
Elements and Element Addresses. Elements are the locations in the library
that can accept a cartridge.

! Important
Although single-ended SCSI is compatible with Ultra-2 and Ultra-3
SCSI, Tandberg Data does not support single-ended devices on the
SCSI bus used by the library.
Attaching an HVD device to an LVD SCSI bus may cause the SCSI
bus to hang.
