• Ensure the autoloader is properly terminated. If the autoloader is the only SCSI
device other than the SCSI host adapter on the selected SCSI bus, it must be
terminated. Likewise, if the autoloader is physically the last SCSI device on the
SCSI bus, it must be terminated. Only the devices physically at the beginning and
end of the SCSI bus should be terminated. If the host is located at the beginning of
the SCSI bus, the host should already have a terminator installed.
• Verify the connection between the autoloader and host by going to
Settings>Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager>Tape Drive and/or Media
Changer
in Microsoft

Windows

2000, Microsoft Windows XP and Windows
Server
®
2003. For more information on verifying the connection of SCSI devices,
consult the operating system documentation.
