Tape Drives and Cartridges The library supports: ■ Linear Tape-Open (LTO) Ultrium tape drives: Tape Drives and Cartridges ■ Hewlett-Packard LTO Gen 2, 3 and 4 (check availability for Gen 4) SCSI low voltage differential (LVD) and Fibre Channel (FC) ■ IBM LTO Gen 2, 3 and 4 (check availability for Gen 4) SCSI LVD and FC ■ Quantum SDLT tape drives: ■ SDLT 320 SCSI LVD ■ SDLT 600 SCSI LVD and FC ■ DLT-S4 SCSI and FC Tape drives are hot-swappable. This means they can be replaced without removing power from the library, as longer as the following actions are done: ■ Back up the server before removing the tape drive. ■ If the tape drives are daisy-chained, stop all data processing on the channel to which the tape drives are connected before disconnecting the tape drives. ■ Make sure that there is no activity on the SCSI bus before disconnecting the external SCSI cables. Stop all processes on the host. ■ Make sure that all signals are terminated at each end of the SCSI bus. ■ If your external SCSI cables are long enough that they do not interfere with removing and replacing the tape drives, you can swap tape drives without disconnecting the external SCSI cables. If so, disregard the steps to remove those cables. Caution – Possible data loss or system problem: If you must disconnect the external SCSI cables, make sure that you quiesce the system first (stop all processes on the tape drives on the SCSI bus with the tape drive you are replacing). All tape drives are mounted on SL500-unique tray assemblies. Each assembly contains the: ■ Tape drive ■ +5 VDC fan ■ RLD tape drive interface card Drive tray assemblies are installed in slots (also called bays), accessible from the back of the library. When a tape drive is inserted into the assigned slot, it connects to the RLD card by way of a cable. The RLD card connects directly to the RLM or RLE (Drive Expansion Module) backplane through a blind-mate connector. Note – If a slot does not contain a tape drive, a vacancy plate must be installed over the slot. 96116 • Revision: KB Chapter 1 SL500 Introduction 15
