4. Installing the DLT2500XT Stacker
The differential SCSI-2 DLT2500XT stacker is a tape mini-library that can perform
automatic tape backup of 75 to 150 GB of information (depending on data compression
usage). The DLT2500XT stacker unit houses a DLT2000XT tape drive, a five-cartridge
removable magazine, and a SCSI-2 tape medium changing device (loader).
This chapter tells you how to set up and configure your desktop DLT2500XT stacker. It
includes instructions on
• selecting a site for the DLT2500XT stacker
• checking your shipment
• placing the DLT2500XT stacker
• checking and setting the stacker’s SCSI ID
• connecting SCSI and power cables
• attaching the power cord and turning on the stacker
• configuring the host system to recognize the DLT2500XT stacker
• installing the SCSI patch
• shutting off your DLT2500XT stacker
To set your system up as a network resource, refer to IRIX Admin: Peripheral Devices and
the IRIX NetWorker guides (IRIX NetWorker Administrator’s Guide and NetWorker for IRIX
