Hi Scott,
Thanks for the info. I think that I'd rather get another SCSI adapter in the NetApp. I was looking at one of Qlogic's cards because that's what NetApp uses, here is the card that I'm thinking about getting. http://www.qlogic.com/products/ultra_series/ultra_three.asp Let me know if you think this would work.
Thanks,
Blake

You have an HVD interface on the F760. You need an LVD/SE (LVD supports 25 foot, while SE is much shorter...about .5-1ft) converter. If you check CDW or other online shops, you'll find an HVD to LVD/SE converter that will do the trick... However, it isn't a supported configuration. HVD is +-12V, LVD is +-7V, and SE is +-5V....most SCSI Adapters that are LVD also support SE.
Thank you,
Scott Gelb

Hello All,
Thanks your all of your help. The problem is that the DLT drive is and SE interface while the F760 is a Fast Wide Differential interface. Now for the next question. How would I get this thing to work with my F760. Is there another card I can buy for the Net App?
Thanks

Check to see if you Autoloader has a single ended SCSI interface. The F7XX Series Filers shipped out of the box with a Fast Wide Differential interface. Connecting that to a SE interface will hang the Filer.
Seen it many times in the past.

Hello,
I'm trying to get my Adic FastStore 22 tape autoloader to work with my F760 i'm running 6.2.1. I set the loaders SCSI ID to 0 and the drive to 1 and I have also tried other combinations also, keeping in mind that the SCSI card in the F760 uses ID 7. When I boot the filer up it just hangs after it checks the memory. If I unplug the autoloader it boots up with no problems. The autoloader is terminated and all connections are good. Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks for your help.
Blake
