Connecting a PTM to a MSL6030
Can someone please explain how to configure 2 MSL6030 (2 Ult960 LTO's per unit)with a Pass-Thru mechanism. I have installed the PTM, but the documentation doesn't tell you (in clear terms)how to connect the scsi connections and UTP/LAN. The units have been set to Master and Slave, but I am unable to connect via telnet to the original IP address of the master unit.
If anyone has had experience of this or knows of any documentation , then any help will be greatfully received.
Kind Regards

Re: Connecting a PTM to a MSL6030
in the installation kit there is a special hub included. You need to connect both libs to this hub, your network to the WAN port. The hub will give IP addresses to the libs (DHCP). Did you do this?
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

MSL Quick Ref Guide shows the SCSI Cabling config.

Re: Connecting a PTM to a MSL6030
I have an old copy of the PTM installation guide - but I don't think it will have changed much. Basically, you need to connect separate SCSI busses to each of the drives in the libraries, and you need just one SCSI connection to the Master (top) library controller module. (Slave libraries don't have a SCSI connection to the controller).
The library "stack" should appear as one big library to the backup application. all management communication is done via the master - and the master then sends robot commands to the slave(s) via IP over the WAN router (not SCSI). The individual libraries have thier own private IP address generated by the router - with the master acting as a "gateway" to the customers LAN.
