Installation and Configuration
Step 1 Install the Scalar DLC software with the SCSI support on the server PC. Install the required
drivers for the target mode. Refer to Scalar DLC Installation Guide, Installing Scalar DLC
Software and Installing SCSI Target Drivers sections. The server PC requires a restart.
Step 2 Enable appropriate SCSI target ports via the SCSI Target Port tool. Refer to SCSI Target Port
Tool on page 217. The server PC may ask for a restart.
Step 3 Start the Management GUI. Refer to Scalar DLC Management GUI
on page 9. Create at least
one Target object and at least one LUN. Refer to SCSI Target Tab
on page 162, Create Target
on page 169 and Create LUN
on page 170. The created target is not active.
Step 4 Create the library configuration that the client requires. Refer to Configuration
on page 16.
Create additional mailboxes and clean/scratch pools if necessary. Refer to Create Mailbox
on
page 110 and Create Pool
on page 109.
Step 5 Create a SCSI client based on the created Target and LUN, and assign it to the created logical
library. Refer to Create SCSI Client
on page 155. The LUN becomes active.
