Connecting MSL 6030 to HP DL 380 Server using Fibre
I am trying to connect MSL 6030 Tape Library having 2 tape drives to a HP DL 380 Server using Fibre channel.
However, the server is unable to recognise the tape library.
Connection I have made is as follows:
Tape Library --> Cisco Switch
SAN (MSA 1500) and server are connected to the Cisco Switch
Please let me know your comments and suggestions.

Re: Connecting MSL 6030 to HP DL 380 Server using Fibre
What operating system are you running on the server ? Does the server see anything ?
If Linux, as per your username, then you may well have to modify /etc/modules.conf...
Cheers,
Rob

Re: Connecting MSL 6030 to HP DL 380 Server using Fibre
On behalf of Vipullinux please:
The above setup is:
Windows 2003 Std DL 380 server having 2 Emulex HBA connected to cisco switch see the SAN fine via MSA 1500 Array controller.
Tape library MSL installed with HP Fibre channel interface card
Server installed with Qlogic card
Fibre cable connected from Tape library directly to Qlogic HBA
Server shows Qlogic card but no media changer device (Tape library) detected.
No zoning in cisco switch / VSAN and there is no NSR - network storage router
SCSI cables and termination done as suggested in Tape Library
Please inform if any s/w installation for Qlogic card to detect Tape library
Original requirement was to detect tape library via switch so that it can be shared among other servers.. but direct connection to one server also doesn't work..
Many Thanks in advance for your help.
