Chapter 1. Introduction

The IBM Ultrium Internal Tape Drive Models T200 and T200F are high-performance, high-capacity data-storage devices that can be integrated into an enclosure, such as a desktop unit, tape cartridge autoloader, or tape library. The tape drives are designed to perform unattended backups, as well as retrieve and archive files. Table 1 outlines the features of the Models T200 and T200F. Figure 1 is a front view of the drive with and without a bezel.

The Ultrium Internal Tape Drive uses a data compression algorithm known as LTO-DC (LTO Data Compression). A key difference between LTO-DC and previous compression algorithms is that record boundaries and file marks are encoded as control symbols in LTO-DC. LTO-DC detects them, but it will not recompress and
| | |
test them. Another difference is that LTO-DC allows switching between compression and no compression within the data stream. This feature prevents the data from expanding when the drive compresses random or encrypted data.
IBM offers device drivers for the Ultrium Tape Drive. Device drivers enable the drive

required), refer to the IBM Ultrium Device Drivers Installation and Users Guide. For applications that use other device drivers, see the applications documentation to determine which drivers to use.
In addition to using IBM tape cartridges with up to 100 GB capacity, the Ultrium Tape Drive also offers read/write capability for certified LTO Ultrium tape cartridges that have capacities of 50 GB, 30 GB, and 10 GB.
The Ultrium Tape Drive records by using a linear, serpentine recording method on 1/2-inch, magnetic tape.

To order a cable, see Appendix A. Tools and Supplieson page 81.

Address Assignments

For enhanced functions in automated library systems, the SCSI drive contains an
|
2 IBM Ultrium Internal Tape Drive
RS-422 interface. If the drive is connected to a library, its SCSI address can be set through the RS-422 interface.
Another option to setting the SCSI address is by attaching jumpers to the SCSI ID connector (see Step 4. Set the SCSI ID (SCSI Drive Only)on page 14).

Installing, Removing, or Resetting a Drive on an Active SCSI Bus

| |
Attaching a drive to an active SCSI bus is supported. However, the preferred and safest method of adding, removing, or resetting a drive is to power-off the system.
|
When adding, removing, or resetting a drive on an active SCSI bus, perform the following steps:
| |
| |
| |
|
1. Quiesce the drive. The drive to be added, removed, or reset must not be
involved in any bus activity.
2. Disconnect power to the drive.
3. Connect or disconnect the SCSI bus cables to or from the drives SCSI
connector. Ensure that the SCSI bus remains intact from the server (initiator) to the terminator throughout the connection or disconnection process.
Note: Changing or moving the terminator disrupts the continuity of the SCSI
| |

Fibre Channel Attachment

| |
| | |
The Ultrium Tape Drive Model T200F has one Fibre Channel interface (also called a port). In accordance with the standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), the port runs Fibre Channel Protocol (which includes SCSI commands on the Fibre Channel) with ANSI-defined Fibre Channel Tape Support. You can attach the Fibre Channel port to the following servers and SAN components. For additional information about the Fibre Channel connectivity, visit the web at http://www.ibm.com/storage/storagesmart/lto. To obtain information about adapters and operating systems, visit the web at http://www.storage.ibm.com/lto.

Physical Characteristics of the Fibre Channel Interface

| | | | |
| | | | |
The Ultrium Tape Drive Model T200F attaches to Open Systems servers by using short-wave, multimode fiber optic cables. All cables feature SC-duplex connectors and are designated as 50/125 (50 refers to the diameter of the optical fiber and 125 refers to the diameter of the cable; both are measured in micrometers). All cables are for field or plant installation, and are available in the following lengths:
v 0.5 m (1.6 ft) v 13 m (43 ft) v 25 m (82 ft) v 61 m (200 ft) v Custom-length fiber cable
| | | |
You can order fiber cables for specific lengths (other than lengths with feature codes) by using part number 54G3391. The maximum length is 500 m (1640 ft). Cable length is measured from the drives Fibre Channel port. To order a cable, see Appendix A. Tools and Supplieson page 81.

Supported Topologies

The drive supports Two-node Arbitrated Loop and Two-node Switched Fabric Loop topologies.
Two-node Arbitrated Loop
The drive supports the arbitrated loop topology, but only two nodes are supported on a loop.
Two-node Switched Fabric Loop
Two or more Fibre Channel end points interconnect through a switch. These switches must have loop-attachment capability. Two nodes are supported on each fabric loop.

Address Assignments

| |
| | | | |
Each device on a Fibre Channel loop must have a Loop Identifier (LID) and a corresponding Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA) to communicate with other devices in the topology. The AL_PA identifies the device on the loop. (LIDs and their corresponding AL_PAs are listed in Table 3 on page 17 and Table 4 on page 18.) You can set an AL_PA by using one of two methods known as soft addressing or hard addressing.
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |
4 IBM Ultrium Internal Tape Drive
Soft addressing allows the drive to dynamically arbitrate the AL_PA with other Fibre Channel devices on the loop. Hard addressing allows you to choose the LID, which determines the corresponding AL_PA. The higher the AL_PA, the lower the priority of the device.
Generally, servers (initiators) require that devices use hard addressing; they do not support soft addressing. When setting addresses, assign the lowest AL_PA (and thus the highest priority) to the server; assign the highest AL_PA (and thus the lowest priority) to the drive.
To set soft or hard addressing, you must place jumpers on designated pins in the drives LID/status connector (see (2 in Figure 3 on page 11). The pin configuration for soft and hard addressing is defined in Step 6. Set the Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (Fibre Channel Drive Only)on page 15.

World Wide Names

| |
| | | | |
Each Ultrium Tape Drive has an 8-byte World Wide Name that is assigned by IBM Manufacturing. The World Wide Name identifies physical drive ports. An enclosure queries the World Wide Name through the RS-422 interface; a server queries the Name through the Fibre Channel interface. The Ultrium Tape Drive reports the World Wide Name to switches. You can use the World Wide Name to uniquely identify the drive on a SAN.

Installing, Removing, or Resetting a Drive on an Active Fibre Channel

| | |
| |
|
A Fibre Channel network supports dynamic drive attachment. When adding, removing, or resetting a drive on an active server or SAN, perform the following steps:
1. Quiesce the drive. The drive to be added, removed, or reset must not be
involved in activity.
2. Connect or disconnect the Fibre Channel cables to or from the drive.

| | | |
| |
Attention:
To avoid static electricity damage when you handle the Ultrium Internal Tape
Drive, use the following precautions:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build around
you.
v Always handle the Ultrium Tape Drive carefully. Handle adapters by the
edges. Never touch exposed circuitry.
v Prevent others from touching the Ultrium Tape Drive.
v Before you unpack and install the Ultrium Tape Drive into an enclosure,
touch its static-protective packaging to an unpainted metal surface on the enclosure for at least 2 seconds. This reduces static electricity in the packaging and your body.
v When possible, remove the Ultrium Tape Drive from its static-protective
packaging and install it directly into an enclosure without setting it down. When this is not possible, place the tape drives packaging on a smooth, level surface and place the tape drive on the packaging.
v Do not place the Ultrium Tape Drive on the cover of the enclosure or on any
other metal surface.
The steps that follow describe how to install the Ultrium Tape Drive. Note: Depending on the type of enclosure, installation procedures may vary. Before
starting this installation, read these instructions and compare them to the drive installation instructions for your enclosure.
When installing the Ultrium Tape Drive into an enclosure, refer to Rear View of the SCSI Driveon page 10 or Rear View of the Fibre Channel Driveon page 11.

Step 1. Unpack the Drive

Unpack the Ultrium Tape Drive and store the packaging. You may need the packaging if you return the unit for service.

Step 2. Power-off the Enclosure (Optional)

It is recommended (but not required) that you power-off the enclosure when you install or remove the tape drive.

Step 3. Install the Cooling Fan Assembly (Optional)

The Ultrium Tape Drives circuits require cooling. The drive is designed to move air
|
|
|
across the circuits, with air entry at the lower front of the drive (the tape path and drive head are protected from airflow and associated debris).
If the cooling fan is not attached and the temperature inside your enclosure does not meet requirements, install the IBM cooling fan assembly (see the temperature requirements in Table 2 on page 7). The procedure for installing the fan varies, depending on whether your drive uses a SCSI or Fibre Channel interface. The sections that follow describe each procedure.
Chapter 3. Installing 11

Installing the Cooling Fan onto a SCSI Drive

To install the optional cooling fan assembly onto an Ultrium Tape Drive that uses a SCSI interface:
1. Remove and discard the two cover screws from the rear of the Ultrium Tape
|
| | | | | | | |
Drive (see 1 in Figure 4). Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws.
2. Position the fan shroud 2 at the rear of the drive and align its top with the top of the drive.
3. Attach the fan shroud to the rear of the drive by securing the two captured screws 3 with a Phillips screwdriver.
4. Connect the SCSI bus cable 4 to the connector at the rear of the SCSI drive.
5. Attach one end of the Y-cable 5 to the drives power connector.
6. Attach the fan cover assembly 6 to the fan shroud 2 by securing four screws 7 with a Phillips screwdriver.

8. Connect the Y-cable 10 to the power supply in the enclosure.
Figure 5. Installing the Cooling Fan Assembly onto a Fibre Channel Drive
Chapter 3. Installing 13

Step 4. Set the SCSI ID (SCSI Drive Only)

Notes:
1. When setting the SCSI ID, use the 2-mm jumpers that come attached to the Ultrium Tape Drives SCSI ID connector (four jumpers are shipped on the connector; an additional jumper is unattached, but included in the ship group). To order additional jumpers, contact your IBM marketing representative.
| | | |
|
2. If your enclosure uses a SCSI ID switch (rather than jumpers), do not perform the following procedure. Instead, remove the jumpers from the Ultrium Tape Drive and connect the switch (for instructions, refer to your enclosures documentation).
3. If you are installing the Ultrium Tape Drive into a tape library, make sure that the drives SCSI ID is set at 15 (see settings below). The library may issue a command to the tape drive to set the SCSI ID via the RS-422 interface.
To set the SCSI ID:
1. Locate the SCSI ID connector (see 2 in Figure 2 on page 10).
2. Before attaching the SCSI bus cable to the server, decide the number of the SCSI ID that you want. Make sure that the ID is not being used by another device.
3. Referring to the following figure, find the ID number that you chose, then place jumpers on the connector pins as shown (use a pair of needle-nose pliers to connect the jumpers to the pins that are shaded).
14 IBM Ultrium Internal Tape Drive

Step 5. Terminate the Drive and Supply TERMPOWER (SCSI Drive Only)

If the tape drive is the last device on the SCSI bus, you must terminate the bus
|
outside the enclosure or internally at the SCSI ID connector (see 2 in Figure 2 on page 10).
To terminate the bus internally, locate one of the five jumpers shipped with the Ultrium Tape Drive and place it on the SCSI ID connector as shown in the following figure. Place the jumper on the pins that are shaded.
To supply TERMPOWER to the bus, locate one of the five jumpers shipped with the Ultrium Tape Drive and place it on the SCSI ID connector as shown in the following figure. Place the jumper on the pins that are shaded.
A67E0049

Step 6. Set the Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (Fibre Channel Drive Only)

| | | | | | | |
| |
| |
| |
|
| | |
Each device on a Fibre Channel loop must have an Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA) to communicate. The AL_PA identifies the device on the loop. To set the Ultrium Tape Drives AL_PA, you must place jumpers on specific pins in the drives loop identifier (LID)/status connector. The placement of the jumpers indicates whether you want to choose the LID yourself (each LID corresponds to a specific AL_PA) or whether you want the drive to choose the AL_PA by arbitrating it with other devices on the loop. Valid LIDs and their corresponding AL_PAs are provided in this section.
Note: A Loop ID is part of a contiguous range of values; valid AL_PA values are
not in a contiguous range.
In addition to establishing the AL_PA, by moving Feature Switch 3 on the drive to ON or off, you can set the drive so that it provides one of the following functions:
v Status about the Fibre Channel loop (through the use of external indicators in an
enclosure)
v Additional LIDs The sections that follow describe how to select the AL_PA. They also describe how
to set Feature Switch 3 so that the drive gives status about the loop or provides additional LIDs.

If Feature Switch 3 on the Ultrium Tape Drive is set to off (see 1 in Figure 6), the LID/status connector 2 has the following definition:
v Pins 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 8 are inputs and are used to set the LID. v Pins 5 and 6 are used as outputs:
– Pin 5 has three states: off (ground), on (3.3 V), and alternating (between off
and on). If the drive does not detect light on the Fibre Channel connector or has not completed the Loop Initialization Protocol (LIP), pin 5 will be off. If the drive detects light and successfully completes the LIP process, the pin will be on. After the drive has completed the LIP process, the pin will be alternating when the drive is receiving SCSI commands, and the pin will be on when the drive is not receiving SCSI commands.
– Pin 6 indicates that the drive detects light. If pin 6 is on but pin 5 is off, this
could indicate communication problems across the fiber cable.
– If the drive is installed in an enclosure, pins 5 and 6 may be used to support
external indicators, such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs), on the enclosure.
| | | |
|
Note: If indicators are used on an enclosure, the drive does not report error
codes 8 and F (Fibre Channel problems) to the single-character display. Instead, pins 5 and 6 signal to the indicators that there is a problem.
v Pin 9 is ground.

corresponding LID.
By using hard addressing, you can specify one of 62 valid AL_PAs for the drive. If you jumper all of the pins, the drive gets the AL_PA from a field in its vital product data (VPD). (An enclosure can set the AL_PA in the VPD through the RS-422 interface.) If you do not jumper any pins, the drive uses soft addressing to determine the AL_PA.

If Feature Switch 3 on the Ultrium Tape Drive is set to ON (see 1 in Figure 6 on page 16), the LID/status connector 2 has the following definition:
v Pins 1 through 7 are used to set the LID. v Pin 8 overrides pins 1 through 7. If pin 8 is jumpered, the drive will use its vital
product data (VPD) to set the AL_PA. The enclosure can set the AL_PA in VPD through the RS-422 interface.

Note: Feature Switch 3 does not support LEDs on an enclosure. Therefore, when
Feature Switch 3 is set to ON, the drive can report Fibre Channel problems (error codes 8 and F) on the single-character display, but not by using the enclosures external indicators.
To set the AL_PA:
1. Determine an unused AL_PA address for the drive and refer to Table 4 for its corresponding LID.
2. Locate the LID/status connector on the drive (see 2 in Figure 6 on page 16).

Step 7. Mount the Tape Drive into an Enclosure

Notes:
1. In the following procedure, you may find it easier to connect the cables to the
|
back of the tape drive (as described on pages 21 through 22) before you secure it to the enclosure.
2. The Ultrium Tape Drive may be shipped with or without a front bezel (see Figure 1 on page 1).
To mount the Ultrium Tape Drive into an enclosure:
1. Place the drive into the enclosure so that its tape load compartment faces the tape load compartment of the enclosure.
2. Insert two 6-32 screws into the mounting holes on the side brackets of the chassis (see 2 in Figure 7).
| | |
Attention: When inserted into the Ultrium Tape Drive, the length of the mounting screws must not exceed 2.0 mm (0.08 in.) from the outside of the chassis. If the length exceeds this measurement, the tape drive may become damaged.
