or switch (for Fibre Channel configurations).
Fibre Channel GBIC: Connects the Fibre Channel
cable to the host, hub, or switch (for standard
performance Fibre Channel controllers only).

Library Accessories
Depending on the configuration, the following accessories may be shipped with the library.
Contact your support or service representative to obtain additional parts.
Install Rack Components
Install the clip nuts and mounting rails.
Ensure there is enough clearance between
the top and bottom rails for the library.
Note: The terms 20-slot, 40-slot and 60-slot
indicate maximum drive and slot capacity
for the library.
Install the Library into a Rack
Position the library so that
the side of the library faces
the front of an appropriately
rated mechanical lift. Align
the back of the library to the
rack and begin turning the
lift's hand crank until the
library is at the desired
height. Gently slide the
library into the rack.
Tip: To reduce the weight of the library, you can
remove all the drives.
Note: The 20-slot library can be safely installed by
two people without using a lift.
20-slot
60-slot
40-slot
Follow these steps to get connected in minutes. Depending on the configuration ordered, some of these steps may
have been completed at the factory. For users unfamiliar with storage devices, please refer to the user guide for the
library. Note: Your library model might look different from the illustrations used on this poster.
Install Library Components
Depending on your library
configuration, install the Fibre Channel
card(s) and drive(s).
Check the Host Configuration
Ensure that the host system has the
appropriate number of card expansion
slots and host interface cards for your
library configuration. For more
information on cabling, refer to Steps 5
and 6. For more information on
installation, refer to the user guide for
the card.
Connect the Library (SCSI)
Install the SCSI interface cables
and terminators. Refer to chapter
1 of the library User's Guide for
additional cabling information.
Connect the Library (Fibre
Install the SCSI interface cables
and terminators to the drives and
Fibre Channel cards. Refer to
chapter 1 of the library User's
Guide for more information on
cabling.

Configure the Library and
Power on the Host
Use the standby switch to power on
the library. If this is a Fibre Channel
installation, configure the library before
connecting it to the Fibre Channel
topology. (Refer to chapter 3 of library
User's Guide.)
Important: If you are using
Fibre Channel, power up in this order:
library, hub and/or switch (if applicable),
and then the host.
Install and Configure the Host
Drivers and Backup Software
(Refer to the backup software documentation for
more information.)
To verify that the host and library
are connected, look for the library's
SCSI ID on the host when the host is
powered on. You can also use HP
Library & Tape Tools (available from
www.hp.com/go/support) to ensure
the host and library are
communicating.
Run a test backup to ensure the
host, backup software, and library
are correctly configured.
Standby Switch
Getting Started
Post-Installation Configuration Tasks
Complete these tasks on the library's front panel during the initial setup.
Refer to Chapter 3 of the library User's Guide for more information.
Date and Time: When you first set up the library or if it is disconnected for an extended period of time,
you must set the real-time clock.
Mailslot: The library is initially configured for a one-slot mailslot. You can also select no mailslot, a
five-slot mailslot, or a ten-slot mailslot. The mailslot allows zero, one, five, or ten slots to be
reserved. When configuring the mailslot, ensure that the slots that will be reserved for the mailslot
are empty and that you reconfigure the host to recognize this configuration.
Password: The library does not have a password enabled when it arrives. For additional security,
enable and select a password.
Remote Access: You can monitor and manage your library anywhere on the network through user-
friendly web pages. You will need to configure the library using DHCP or by entering the IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway address. You must enable and select a library password and
then use that same password to configure the library remotely.
Note: The library has a mixed media feature that allows the use of two drive technologies in the same
library. For more information, refer to Appendix D in the library User’s Guide.
