Tandberg SLR Installation and User's GuideData Compression Data Compression is a way to increase capacity on a storage device. Compression ratios are normally specified to be 2:1, meaning that it is possible to store twice as much data on the tape as normal without data compression. However, the compression rate is depending on the type of data, e.g. ordinary text files can be compressed in a much higher rate than program files. There are two ways to compress data, hardware compression and software compression. The storage device very often does hardware compression, and software compression means that the program is compressing the data before it is sent to the storage device. Hardware compression is much more efficient, and works much faster than software compression. The Tandberg Data SLR4-DC, SLR5, SLR24, SLR7, SLR40, SLR50, SLR60, SLR75, SLR100 and SLR140 use ALDC Hardware compression to compress data. This feature is enabled per default but the user may turn off data compression through the application software or specific Software Tools. (Please refer to the Tandberg SCSI tools chapter at the end of this manual for more information). Tandberg Data Tandberg SLR Installation and User's Guide 7This Page Intentionally Left Blank Tandberg Data 8 Tandberg SLR Installation and User's GuideTape Drive Installation SCSI Controller Board Installation All Tandberg Data SLR tape drives uses a SCSI interface to the host system. Before any SCSI device can be installed it is necessary to have a SCSI controller board installed. Please pay attention to the following points.

• Make sure your computer is turn off before proceeding to the installation.

• If you computer is equipped with an onboard SCSI controller, before proceeding with the installation, you must first locate the SCSI connector on the computer motherboard.

• Refer to the documentation provided with your computer to find out where this connector is located.

• If multiple SCSI connectors are available, you can choose any of them, except if your computer documentation mentions something different.

• When done, firmly connect the SCSI connector to the Main- board connector and refer to the section Mounting the Tape Drive to install your internal SLR.

• If your PC/Server needs a separate SCSI controller, you need to make sure it is properly installed before connecting your SLR tape drive. Tandberg Data Tandberg SLR Installation and User's Guide 9· You will also need a software driver from the SCSI controller vendor to activate the SCSI Controller. Please make sure you have the latest software driver for your SCSI controller loaded, and that the SCSI controller board is properly installed. Software drivers can be downloaded from the vendors' web site. Refer to the README file for installation. Please refer to the PC/Server documentation for further information on how to install additional boards in the PC/Server. Or ask your local dealer for assistance. Tandberg Data

Tandberg SLR Installation and User's GuideSCSI Configuration SCSI-ID Selection All devices on a SCSI-bus need their own unique identification, called SCSI-ID. If a SCSI-ID conflict exists, some of the SCSI devices will not be recognized by your system. In many systems it is common to use the SCSI-bus for the hard-drive and CD-ROM, as well as the tape drive. Remember that the SCSI Controller uses SCSI-ID 7. If the tape drive is the only device on the SCSI - bus, you do not need to do anything. The tape drive will be recognized automatically. (All Tandberg Data tape drives are delivered with SCSI-ID 2 as default.) If the tape drive is going to share the SCSI-bus with other devices, check the SCSI-ID numbers used by the other devices, then set the drive’s SCSI-ID to a number that is not being used by any of the other devices (remember the SCSI host adapter uses ID 7). The SCSI-ID is often set by “jumpers” where you can “read out” which SCSI-ID the device has been set up for. All SCSI device ID's are displayed on the screen during system startup. Tandberg Data Tandberg SLR Installation and User's Guide 11 Internal SLR7 - SLR140SCSI-ID Selection External SLR2 ® SLR140: For the external tabletops, you will find the SCSI-ID setting thumb-wheel switch on the rear end of the unit box: Tandberg Data 12 Tandberg SLR Installation and User's Guide SLR2-5 SCSI-ID Thumb-wheel Switch SLR7-140 SCSI-ID Thumb-wheel SwitchSCSI-bus Termination - Internal Tape Drives Termination in General A SCSI-bus is susceptible to interference, such as noise from electrical motors and other electromagnetic devices. Also due to the speed of the data on the SCSI-bus, it is of outmost importance to terminate the SCSI-bus properly. “Termination” is used to define the ends of the SCSI-bus. Tandberg SLR2 ® SLR5 Will your new tape drive be the last or only SCSI device on a SCSI cable?

• If your drive will be the last device on the SCSI cable or the only device on the cable, as shown to the left, make sure that the SCSI termination packs are installed in the drive (Factory default).

• If your tape drive will be in the middle of a SCSI chain, as shown to the left, you must disable SCSI termination on the drive. To disable SCSI termination on the tape drive, remove the termination resistor packs from the drive (see figure on the following page). Make sure that the last SCSI device on the cable has termination enabled. Tandberg Data SCSI termination where the tape drive is the last or only SCSI device. SCSI termination in a system with three internal SCSI devices. Tandberg SLR Installation and User's Guide 13The Tandberg SLR2 ® SLR5 drives have 3 passive termination resistor packages that can be removed or installed inside the drive. Tandberg SLR24, SLR7, SLR40, SLR50, SLR60 SLR75, SLR100 and SLR140 The Tandberg SLR24, SLR7, SLR40, SLR50, SLR60, SLR75, SLR100 and SLR140 tape drives are supplied with no internal drive termination capability. To comply with PC99 specifications, TD supplies an internal SCSI cable with a removable active terminator to facilitate termination requirements in internal applications. Tandberg Data

Tandberg SLR Installation and User's GuideSCSI-bus Termination - External Tape Drives If the Tape drive is the only device on the external SCSI-bus, it must be terminated using the external SCSI termination provided with the solution. See figure: SLR Tape Drive (Must be terminated) If other external device(s) is/are present, the Tandberg SLR tape drive can be installed in any position on the SCSI-bus, the SLR tape drive must be terminated if installed at the end of the SCSI-bus. See figure: Mounting the Internal Tape Drive Wide/Narrow Configuration All SLR internal tape drives can be connected either to a 16 bit Wide SCSI or an 8-bit Narrow SCSI host adapter. SLR25 is provided with an internal cable with a narrow connector. SLR7-140 internal tape drives are supplied with a WIDE connector. If you plan to use SLR2-5 with a WIDE SCSI host adapter you will need a Narrow SCSI host adapter Narrow to WIDE converter for the internal cable supplied with your SLR2-5 tape storage solution. If you plan to use SLR7-140 with a narrow SCSI host adapter you will need a Wide to Narrow converter.

Tandberg Data Tandberg SLR Installation and User's Guide 23Retentioning Condition A Retention MUST be performed in any of the following cases:

• First use of brand new data cartridge.

• After prolonged operation over a limited tape length, meaning excessive start/stop operations.

• When the cartridge has been exposed to a decrease/increase in temperature of 16°C (30° F)

• When the cartridge has been dropped.

• The occurrence of excessive soft write errors, excessive soft read errors (also named ECC error by some backup applications). Cleaning Before use, please make sure that the cleaning cartridge is stored for 24 hours in the temperature and humidity of the environment in which it will be used. Recommended Cleaning Intervals In general, the tape drive should be cleaned after 50 hours of tape movement for SLR2-5, and every 100 hours for SLR7 -

Tandberg Data Tandberg SLR Installation and User's Guide 79Verifying Recent Changes If the SLR has been installed previously and operating correctly but is now incurring a problem, verify any recent changes to the system to ensure that these changes are not causing the problem. Try the following:

1) If the system configuration has changed, remove the change

to see if it affected the tape drive.

2) If an operating system corrective patch has been installed,

remove it to see if it affected the tape drive.

3) If a SCSI device has been added, check for SCSI-ID

4) If a SCSI device has been added, check if the SCSI

termination has been properly set. Correcting Intermittent Failures If the SLR fails intermittently:

1) Clean the tape drive.

2) Check the SCSI termination on the SCSI Bus.

If the problem occurs in the middle of an operation:

1) Try with a different data cartridge.

2) If the error occurs when the software scans for the files to

be backed-up, please operate a SCANDISK operation to check the state of the File Systems(s) and hard disk. If the error occurs always on the same file or directory:

1) Try to remove the file or directory from the Backup

operation to see if that corrects the problem.

2) Try with a different data cartridge.
