About This Guide
This guide is designed to help you install, manage, and troubleshoot your sled-mounted,
desktop, or stacker DLT™ digital tape drives and subsystems. Three physical variations
of the tape drive are documented in this guide:
• DLT™2000XT
– sled-mounted single-ended SCSI tape drive for internal use with deskside or
rack systems (including the vault expansion rack with single-ended SCSIBox 2)
– desktop single-ended SCSI tape drive for external use with desktop and
deskside systems
• DLT™2500XT: desktop differential stacker that holds up to five tapes and works
with desktop, deskside, or rack systems
These drive products have been specifically configured and tested to work with the
following Silicon Graphics
®
host systems:
• CHALLENGE
®
L and Onyx
®
deskside systems
• CHALLENGE XL rackmount and Onyx rackmount systems
• vault or vault rack SCSIBox 2 (sled-mounted drives only)
• CHALLENGE S systems
• Indigo
2®
and Indy

systems (external drive only)
Note: For ease in reading, CHALLENGE is written as Challenge in the balance of this
guide.
Please consult your Silicon Graphics sales or service representative before using the DLT
tape drive with other host systems.
Note: You must have IRIX™ release 5.3, 5.3 with XFS, 6.2, or later installed on the host
system or it will not recognize the drive.
