50 Planning to Configure Physical Libraries and Remotely Manage the Pathlight VX

Pathlight VX Connectivity to Physical Libraries

To verify connectivity between Pathlight VX and one or more attached physical (tape) libraries, installers

need information on the director/switch model and firmware, hostname, FC Host OS and level, and HBA

(including driver and firmware information). Collect this information from the customer and record these

values in Table 35

. The SE should review the support information for both the physical library and the library

drives (including firmware level for both) to verify Pathlight VX connectivity to the library and drives.

•For the Physical Library Names row, enter the library or partition name. Add as many columns as

are required.

• For the Library Type row, reference the list of supported libraries.

Additional summary information for physical library connectivity is required because there might be specific

connectivity required for each physical library SNC/IOB.

Use one set of Table 36

and Table 37 on page 51 for each SNC.

CAUTION

Physical libraries must be operating in native mode in order to

function properly with Pathlight VX. For example, a Scalar i2000

cannot be set up to emulate a Scalar 100; it must be operating as a

Scalar i2000.

CAUTION

Pathlight VX does not support using mixed drive types (LTO-1, LTO-2 and

LTO-3 drives) in the same physical library.
