Subject: L700 StorageTek Question w/Veritas

=20

I am using an L700 tape library.

=20

5- STK9840 drives

4- HPUltrium2-SCSI Drives

=20

All drives connect via fiber.

The host is a SunOS 5.8 box running Veritas NetBackup 5.1.

There is something going on with the Fiber+I/O Port Configuration.

Basically a couple weeks ago the first four STK9840 tape drives went
down (in veritas: DOWN/TLD) when Veritas tries to write to these tape
drives.

We get "I/O port error cannot open port."

=20

I thought it was an issue with the drives.

=20

I changed the fiber loop for the A/B addresses for the four STK9840
drives to 02/02, 03/03, 04/04, 05/05.

After I did this, four of the drives came up successfully but then four
other drives went down.

=20

Does anyone know the key to setting the fiber addresses?

=20

The panel says:

=20

1-125 for HARD PORT (this is what I am using)
126 for SOFT PORT (this disables the port)

=20

Are there any StorageTek technicians or users of the L700 who may have
had similar problems in the past?

=20

Thanks!

=20

Justin.
