PC Tool Equipment and Software Needed
When upgrading or converting the library you will be connecting your PC tool to the
jukebox for two reasons: downloading firmware to the jukebox controller and drives
and verifying proper operation of the drives after installation. The following
hardware and software is required:
• IBM AT-compatible computer
• Adaptec interface board
• Cables and adapters that will enable you to connect the SCSI port of your PC
tool to a high-density SCSI port on the jukebox.
In addition to a service SCSI cable stored inside the jukebox you may need an
adapter from the list below:
• A firmware download utility
• An MO scratch disk for testing the drives.
