That is for FC connections.
Always power off the SCSI connectors if
you can. This means turn off the F760.
Not doing so may cause damage to the F760
SCSI, the Tape Drive/library or both sides.

Sounds about right, however you do not
need to power off and back on if you are running a later version of DOT (I
think it came in 6.4.?)

Subject: Installing a new tape
library
We currently have a DLT tape library connected to our F760 using the
onboard HVD. We're going to change this out with a newer LTO2 library. The
newer library uses LVD, so we have an HVD/LVD converter box. We also only use
dump scripts to do our backups. It sounds like this should be as easy as
- power off F760
- disconnect DLT library
- connect LTO2 library with HVD/LVD converter
- power on F760
- modify scripts in case any SCSI IDs have change
Are there things we're overlooking. BTW, I realize we should have
bought an LVD card for the F760, but someone had already purchased the converter
and right now we're not up against any windows.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Scott
