This application note is to be used only as a guideline for the titled subject. The user assumes all

responsibility for understanding the interrelationships of this information with other affected software

or system products. Quantum Corporation provides this information as a service only, and assumes no

responsibility for any damages, which could result from the use of this information.

The information in this application note is subject to change without notice and is not to be construed

as a commitment by Quantum Corporation. Quantum Corporation assumes no responsibility for any

errors that may appear in this document.

NOTE: The information in this document pertains to DLT™2000,DLT™2000XT, DLT™4000, DLT™7000 or

DLT™8000 cartridge tape drive or the DLT™2500, DLT™2500XT, DLT™2700, DLT™2700XT, DLT™4500 or

DLT™4700 tape mini-library that you are installing.

The following section describes the installation and configuration of a DLTtape tape peripheral on an IBM RISC

System/6000 running AIX 3.2 or 4X.. Additionally, information about setting the DLTtape device attributes as well as

listing the special device files that can be used to select tape drive options (re-tensioning, rewinding, and density

settings) are also included. The DLTtape controller firmware must have OEM-1 controller firmware installed.

Controller firmware version must be V10 or greater. Note that DLT7000 or DLT8000 will not work on AIX 3.2.

For the DLT7000 and DLT8000 attachment to AIX 3.2.5 will require a patch from IBM to be installed. The patch ID is

PTF U429285 and can be obtained using a web browser at http://service.software.ibm.com. The patch allows

attachment of wide SCSI devices such as the DLT7000 and the DLT8000 to narrow host adapters on RS6000.

The section following the installation includes information about DLTtape tape cartridge compatibility. The last section

describes important information regarding the use of an installed DLTtape mini-library.

Installation

IBM RISC System/6000 must have the appropriate SCSI interface for DLTtape drive to attached to, i.e., a SCSI

single-ended DLTtape drive can be attached only to a SCSI single-ended interface. The same is true for SCSI

differential attachment. After the DLTtape tape peripheral has been attached, you will need to perform certain system

operations that allow the DLTtape tape peripheral to be recognized.

Perform the installation as follows:

Shutdown the system and remove ac power from the system. Install the DLTtape tape peripheral and connect it to

its SCSI controller. Depending on the DLTtape tape peripheral you are installing, refer to one of the following

manuals for switch and jumper settings and SCSI bus termination:
