Configuring FC420 Firmware 9

Configuring FC420 Firmware 0

Each FC420 Fibre bridge installed in the ATL M2500 library must be

configured using the FC420 Prism Bridge Services software. The key to

successfully configuring the FC420 Fibre bridge is to:

• Know exactly how the SCSI cabling in the library is configured

including:

• How many FC420 Fibre bridges are present in the library.

• How many SCSI buses are present in the library.

• How many SCSI devices are connected to each bus.

This was established in the previous section of this document.

• Use the FC420 Prism Bridge Services software to create a Map file

identifying which SCSI devices are electrically connected to which

Fibre Channel ports on the FC420 board.

The major steps for configuring FC420 Fibre bridge firmware involve:

• Setting Up an Ethernet Connection

• Verifying Current FC420 Firmware on page 11

• Setting Local Echo Mode

on page 11

• Scanning the SCSI buses on the Library

on page 11

• Creating a Map File for the FC420

on page 12

Setting Up an Ethernet

Connection

To set up an Ethernet connection between the FC420 Fibre bridge and

a service PC or other stand-alone computer:

1 Establish a physical connection between the FC420 bridge and the

computer using a CAT 5E crossover cable. To do this:

a Make sure the computer and library are both turned off.

b Attach one end of the cable to the RJ-45 connector at the bottom

of the FC420 bracket.

c Attach the other end of the cable to the NIC port on the

computer.

2 Turn on the computer.

Note: These major steps must be repeated for each FC420 Fibre

bridge in the library.
