Configuring Robotic Controls

The binding process is vendor and product unique. Please refer to the documentation

available for your specific HBA.

The binding may be based on the fibre channel World Wide name of the port (WWPN) or

the node (WWNN), or the destination ID (AL-PA or fabric assigned).

Once the selected binding is in place, the configuration proceeds in the same manner as

for parallel SCSI installations (see “Configuring SG and ST Drivers” on page 9).

Note Each time a new device is added or an old device removed, the binding must be

updated to the new configuration.

Configuring Robotic Controls

Robots are controlled through a SCSI or a network connection.

◆ SCSI control is covered in the following sections.

◆ Configuration of network controlled robotic libraries (for example, ACS robot types)

is discussed in the appendices of the VERITAS NetBackup Media Manager System

Administrator’s Guide for UNIX and Linux or the VERITAS NetBackup Media Manager

System Administrator’s Guide for Windows.

Configuring SCSI Robotic Controls

Read this topic if you plan to use a robotic storage device that is controlled through a SCSI

robotic connection. Information on supported SCSI robots (vendor models) can be found

on the VERITAS support web site.

When communicating with SCSI-controlled robotic peripherals, Media Manager utilizes

the SCSA Generic (sg) driver. This driver is provided with NetBackup.

Note You must install the sg driver before continuing with the instructions in this topic

(see “Configuring SG and ST Drivers” on page 9 for details).

To display the device files that are available to be used through the sg driver, use the

sgscan command with the all parameter and note the lines that indicate changer

devices (robotic libraries), as in the following example:

# /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/sgscan all

/dev/sg/c0t5l0: Tape (/dev/rmt/0): "HP C1537A"

/dev/sg/c0t6l0: Cdrom: "TOSHIBA XM-5401TASUN4XCD"

/dev/sg/c1t2l0: Tape (/dev/rmt/7): "EXABYTE EXB-85058HE-0000"

/dev/sg/c1t4l0: Tape (/dev/rmt/9): "EXABYTE EXB-8900MH000202"

/dev/sg/c1t5l0: Changer: "EXABYTE EXB-210"
