For default element addresses of IBM DDS4 Autoloader, refer to figure 1 - HP DDS4 Autoloader. ************************************************************************** Element Addresses and Notes for Newly Supported Tape Libraries ************************************************************************** NOTE: The following figures depict the storage element addresses of tape libraries for which support has been added since the publication of Version 3 manuals. These are used in conjunction with the previous ADSM Version 3 Administrator's Reference and Guide and the ADSM Version 3 Quick Start. These diagrams can be added to their sections for recording the SCSI ID's and device names. Element addresses are used by Tivoli Storage Manager to address the tape drive device and the storage slots contained by a SCSI Library/Autochanger. The Tivoli Storage Manager command DEFINE DRIVE utilizes the element address of each drive in a multi-drive library. The Tivoli Storage Manager command CHECKIN LIBVOL uses the address of a storage slot for libraries that do not have Entry/Exit ports. With the exception of DUAL LUN (Logical Unit Numbers) devices, you will need separate SCSI ID for your autochanger and a SCSI ID for each drive in your library device. Configure the autochanger and each drive in the library separately using the procedure described in the 'Configuring a Tape Drive, or Autochanger' section of the Tivoli Storage Manager Administrator's Guide. NOTE: On some libraries, the element addresses of the cartridge slots will not directly correspond to the slot numbers (e.g. slot number 1 may be element address 2, etc.). This is important because Tivoli Storage Manager will always reference cartridge slots by element addresses, not slot numbers. _______________________________ Figure 1 ________________________________ Default Element Addresses for HP SureStore DAT40x6 (DDS4) Autoloader -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Addresses Addresses of Addresses of Addresses of Model #s of Drives Storage slots Transport Entry/Exit Slots ----------- ---------- ------------- ------------ ---------------- C5713A 1 2 - 7 N/A N/A --------------------- | @2 | @5 | --------------------- | @3 | @6 | Magazine --------------------- | @4 | @7 | --------------------- <----- Load this end first |----------| @ = Element Address | @1 lun 0 | Drive |----------| Notes: ------ 1.

Public Arbitrated Loop or Fabric is not supported at this time. * List of Supported and/or Verified FC components: The following shows a subset of FC components with their firmware levels tested during the verification phase. For the complete and the latest list of interoperability, please visit our website at: http://www.tivoli.com/support/storage_mgr/san/overview.html - IBM SAN Data Gateway(SDG) 2108-G07: For detailed and the most current information about how to setup a SDG in the AIX environment, please refer to the following website: http://www.ibm.com/storage/SANGateway 2108-G07 firmware V0340.02 - Crossroads 4200/4250: Make sure the Crossroads router is set to SCSI Controller Command(SCC) addressing mode. For detailed and the most current information about how to setup a Crossroads router for your particular environment with AIX, please refer to their manuals or website at http://www.crossroads.com. 4200 firmware 9912e 4250 firmware 9920s - Gadzoox Gibraltar GS Hub: * Changes to SMIT panel SMIT panel interfaces have been changed as follows: The main menu for TSM has now two options: the option "SCSI Attached Devices" is to configure SCSI parallel devices connected to a SCSI adapter in the host. Devices are configured by the subsequent menus which have not changed. The option "Fibre Channel SAN Attached devices" is added in order to configure devices connected to a Fibre Channel adapter in the host. There are 4 options to choose under the "Fibre Channel SAN Attached Devices" option: 1. List Attributes of a Discovered Device This option lists attributes of a device known to the current ODM database such as FC Port ID(FCPORT_ID), Mapped LUN ID(LUNMAP_ID), WW Name of the Port(WW_NAME), and Product ID(PRODUCT_ID). FC Port ID: This is the 24-bit FC Port ID(N(L)_Port or F(L)_Port), the address identifier that is unique within the associated topology where the device is connected. In the switch or fabric environment, it's usually determined by the switch with upper 2-bytes being non-zero. In a Private Arbitrated Loop, it is the Arbitrated Loop Physical Address(AL_PA) with upper 2-bytes being zero. Please consult with your FC vendors to find out how AL_PA or a Port ID is assigned. Mapped LUN ID: This is from a FC<->SCSI bridge(also, called converter, router, or gateway) box like IBM SAN Data Gateway(SDG) or Crossroads 4200. Please consult with your bridge vendors on how LUNs are currently mapped. It is recommended that LUN Mapped IDs not be changed. WW Name: This is the World Wide Name of the port that the device is attached to. It is the 64-bit unique identifier assigned by vendors of FC components such as bridges or native FC devices. Please consult with your FC vendors to find out a port's WWN. Product ID: This is the product ID of the device. Please consult with your device vendors to find out the product ID of the device. 2. Discover Devices Supported by TSM This option discovers devices on a Fibre Channel SAN that are supported by TSM and makes them AVAILABLE. If/when a device is added or removed from an existing SAN environment, rediscover devices by selecting this option. Devices must be discovered first so that current values of attributes of devices are shown in the option #1. TSM supported devices on FC SAN are tape drives, libraries(=autochangers), and optical drives. All other types of devices such as disks are ignored by TSM Device Driver. 3. Remove All Defined Devices This option removes all FC SAN attached TSM devices whose state is DEFINED in the ODM database. If necessary, rediscover devices by selecting the option #2 after removal of all defined devices. 4. Remove a Device This option removes a single FC SAN attached TSM device whose state is DEFINED in the ODM database. If necessary, rediscover the device by selecting the option #2 after removal.
