Description
The IBM 7212 Model 102 is designed to provide efficient
and convenient storage expansion capabilities for
selected pSeries and iSeries servers.
The two bays of the 7212 Model 102 can accommodate
any two of the following for pSeries and p5 servers:
Refer to the Sales Manual for descriptions of the
previously announced drive features.
200/400 GB Half-High LTO Ultrium 2 Tape Drive
The Half-High LTO-2 Tape Drive is designed to provide
an Ultrium 2 media physical capacity of up to 200 GB
(400 GB with 2:1 compression) data storage per cartridge
and a sustained data transfer rate of up to 24.0 MB per
second (48 MB per second with 2:1 compression).In
addition to reading and writing on Ultrium 2 tape
cartridges, it is also read and write compatible with
Ultrium 1 cartridge. The Half-High LTO-2 Tape Drive can
be a cost-effective solution for save, restore, and archive
functions.
7212 Model 102 fits conveniently in a 1U space of a
19-inch rack and accommodates any two of a number of
various tape and optical drive features.The 7212
Model 102 may also be installed on a desktop.
If you need to back up larger amounts of data or need
higher performance tape drives, consider the following:
• IBM 7206 Model VX2 Tape Drive with VXA Technology
• IBM TotalStorage Ultrium Tape Drive 3580
• IBM 7332 Model 220 4mm Tape Autoloader
• IBM 7212 Model 312 VXA Tape Autoloader

Software requirements
pSeries and p5 servers
The Half-High LTO-2 Tape Drive features require AIX
V5.1.0 with update CD LCD4-1103-07, or later, or Linux
as listed at the end of this section.
iSeries (Models 7xx and 8xx) servers
Drive features require OS/400 V5.2, or later, on all
models of the 9406 iSeries server.
i5 servers
Drive features require IBM i5/OS V5.3, or later, or Linux
as listed at the end of this section.
Linux support
• SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 for POWER
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS for POWER V3, or later
Compatibility:
The Half-High LTO-2 Tape Drive (#1109)
feature is read and write compatible with Ultrium 1 tape
cartridges.
Limitations:
The 7212 Storage Enclosure, with split SCSI
bus feature (#1208 or #9206), must be connected at the
end of the bus.This is required because each of the
drives in the 7212, with split SCSI bus feature, is internally
terminated.
When using two 7212 Storage Enclosures per adapter
port, the first 7212 must have the single SCSI bus feature
(#9207). The second 7212 may have either the single
SCSI bus feature (#9207) or the split SCSI bus feature
(#1208 or #9206)
Note: 7212 Storage Enclosures, manufactured before
March 2002, had a single SCSI bus equivalent to feature
number 9207.

the various SCSI cable feature numbers that can be ordered depending on the host system adapter to which the IBM
7212 TotalStorage
Storage Device Enclosure Model 102 will be attached.

• When using two 7212 Storage Enclosures per adapter
port, the first 7212 must have the single SCSI bus
feature (#9207). The second 7212 may have either the
single SCSI bus feature (#9207) or split SCSI bus
features (#1208 or #9206).
• 7212 Storage Enclosures, manufactured before
March 2002, had a single SCSI bus, equivalent to
feature number 9207.
iSeries and i5 cables
One SCSI cable must be specified with the 7212 if the
single bus feature number 9207 is specified. If the split
bus feature number 1208 or 9206 is ordered, one SCSI
cable
must be specified for each storage device
(maximum of 2 per 7212). The cables must be specified
on the initial plant order. The following table shows the
various SCSI cable feature numbers that can be ordered
depending on the host iSeries system adapter to which
the 7212 Model 102 will be attached.
Note: For iSeries and i5, the 7212 Model 102 must be the
only device attached to the external bus.
