Configuring Tape Drive Parameters
You can configure Fibre Channel tape drive loop ID, topology, and speed
using the operator panel or the Web client. On the Web client, you can
also view the actual topology and speed, plus the tape drive’s world-
wide node name (WWNN) and other information about the tape drives.
You cannot configure SAS tape drive settings. A SAS tape drive’s SAS
address is automatically and uniquely generated based on a unique
World Wide Name (WWN) that the drive receives when it is configured.
You can view SAS tape drive settings (but not change them) on the Web
client.
