\\.\Changer0
S/N: ADIC_1_C00027529
I could undestand that two drivers are enough, but this 3rd line in
connection with Ultrium jukebox what does it mean?
Maybe some site for beginners will be helpfull?
The ADIC Scalar 24 ([email protected]) is the control port for the tape
library. (You could think of it as the robot head, although that's not
completely correct.)
Effectively, it's the SCSI control port that NetWorker will "talk" to
the Jukebox on.
So you've got effectively 3 elements in your jukebox:
[email protected] = \\.\Tape0
[email protected] = \\.\Tape1
[email protected] = Library control port
There's a few sites around that have useful information for people
using NetWorker - for instance, as a starting point you may find some
information on my blog (see link in signature). PowerLink can be
another good resource, though it mostly contains just the EMC
documentation, which while fine, is substantial and therefore a bit
more work to get through. Curtis Preston maintains some resources as
well at Backup Central, and this list has a searchable archive.
Cheers,
Preston.
