Dell PowerVault ML6000 Getting Started Guide (English)

WARNING: Before cabling your library, read the Dell™ PowerVault™ Systems

Product Information Guide.

WARNING: All libraries must be installed in a rack having a main protective

earthing (grounding) terminal. For detailed installation information, see the Dell™ PowerVault™ ML6000 Tape Library User’s Guide.

WARNING: The socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be

easily accessible.

WARNING: The front panel power switch is not the main disconnection device.

Please pull all main plugs out of the appliance inlets in order to switch off the appliance completely.

WARNING: Before cabling your library, remove all interior packaging. Be sure to

remove the orange robot restraint assembly that secures the robot to the floor of the library. In addition, remove the yellow strip in the I/E station. Save all packaging materials and the orange robot restraint assembly in case you need to move or ship the library in the future. For details, see the unpacking instructions that came with your library and the Dell™ PowerVault™ ML6000 Tape Library User’s Guide.

Installing Your Library in a Rack

All Dell™ PowerVault™ ML6000 libraries must be installed in a rack. For instructions, see the

• ML6010 CM is a single 5U Library Control Module.

• ML6020 CM consists of one (1) ML6010 CM 5U Library Control Module and one (1) ML6000 EM 9U Library Expansion Module (14U total).

• ML6030 CM consists of one (1) ML6010 CM 5U Library Control Module and two (2) ML6000 EM 9U Library Expansion Modules (23U total).

Special Instructions for LTO-5 Tape Drives

Currently, the library does not support using the following features on LTO-5 tape drives:

• Ethernet port

10 Dell PowerVault ML6000 Getting Started Guide

• Port 2 on dual-port tape drives

See the following two figures for details.

LTO-5 Fibre Channel Tape Drive

1 Ethernet port - do not use 2 Fibre Channel port - use this port

LTO-5 SAS Tape Drive

1 SAS port 1 - use this port 2 SAS port 2 - do not use

3 Ethernet port - do not use

Dell PowerVault ML6000 Getting Started Guide 11

Connecting Parallel SCSI Cables

Perform this step if your library contains parallel SCSI tape drives. There are two recommended ways to cable SCSI tape drives: one tape drive per

SCSI bus or two tape drives per SCSI bus.

NOTE: To avoid possible performance issues, do not connect more than two tape

drives per SCSI bus.

To connect one tape drive per SCSI bus:

Use a SCSI cable to connect the bottom port of the tape drive to your host system.

Attach a SCSI terminator to terminate the top port of the tape drive.

To connect two tape drives per SCSI bus:

Connect one end of a SCSI cable to the top SCSI port of the bottom tape drive.

Connect the other end of the cable to the bottom SCSI port of the tape drive above.

Use another SCSI cable to connect the bottom tape drive of the SCSI bus to your host system.

Use a SCSI terminator to terminate the top tape drive of the SCSI bus.

Connecting Fibre Channel Cables to a Host or Switch

Perform this step if your library contains Fibre Channel tape drives that you will be connecting directly to a host or switch.

Use Fibre Channel cables to connect your host (or switch) to the library. For each tape drive:

Connect one end of the Fibre Channel cable to the Fibre Channel port on the tape drive.

Connect the other end of the Fibre Channel cable to your host or switch.

1 Fibre Channel port 2 Fibre Channel cable

14 Dell PowerVault ML6000 Getting Started Guide

Connecting Fibre Channel Cables Through a Fibre Channel I/O Blade

Perform this step if your library contains Fibre Channel tape drives that you will be connecting to your host or switch through a Fibre Channel I/O blade.

For each tape drive: Connect one end of a Fibre Channel cable to the Fibre Channel port on the tape drive. Connect the other end of the Fibre Channel cable to an initiator port (lower ports 3 – 6) on the nearest Fibre Channel I/O blade.

For each Fibre Channel I/O blade: Connect one end of a Fibre Channel cable to one of the target ports (upper ports 1 and 2) on the Fibre Channel I/O blade. Connect the other end of the Fibre Channel cable to your host or switch.

Use Ethernet cables to connect the LCB in the 5U Library Control Module to each 9U Library Expansion Module that contains a Fibre Channel I/O blade. For each Fibre Channel I/O blade installed in a 9U Library Expansion Module:

Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to any of the four middle Ethernet ports on the LCB Ethernet hub.

Connect the other end of the cable to the appropriate port on the 9U Library Expansion Module. If the Fibre Channel I/O blade is installed in the upper bay, use the port labelled "UPPER." If the Fibre Channel I/O blade is installed in the lower bay, use the port labelled "LOWER."

1 LCB middle Ethernet ports 2 Fibre Channel I/O blade

3 Target ports 4 Initiator ports

5 Fibre Channel port 6 Ethernet cables

7 "UPPER" and "LOWER" ports

Connecting Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Cables

Perform this step if your library contains serial attached SCSI (SAS) tape drives. Use SAS cables to connect the SAS tape drives directly to the host. For each

tape drive:

Connect one end of the SAS cable to the SAS port on the tape drive.

Connect the other end of the SAS cable directly to the host.
