Introduction 3
Introduction 0
In default configuration, the Quantum ATL P-Series tape library is
controlled by a host computer through a SCSI differential bus that uses
the SCSI-2 medium changer command set. There is also an RS-232
diagnostic port interface.
Through the installation of the FC230 Router with Prism
Architecture™, you can easily convert the ATL P-Series library from a
SCSI host interface to Fibre Channel. This document describes the
FC230 router, including configuration procedures common to ATL P-
Series libraries.
For a complete description of ATL P-Series library operating
procedures, refer to the appropriate ATL P-Series Library User’s
Guide.
Fibre Channel
Description 0
Fibre Channel is a serial data transfer architecture for use with
computers and mass storage devices. Fibre Channel is rapidly
emerging to challenge SCSI as the interface of choice for host-to-
storage applications.
Fibre Channel advantages include:
• Up to 500-meter connection range
• 1 GB/S data transfer rate
• Support of up to 126 devices on a loop
• Support of 24-bit addressing for over 16 million devices in point-
to-point mode or fabric
• Operating system independence
• Interconnect flexibility
• Full direct connectivity between all ports on a network, increasing
the total throughput of all devices on a network
FC230 Router
Operation 0Once the FC230 router is installed and tested, the library operates
exactly the same as a ATL P-Series library with a SCSI host interface.
Note: The term “ATL P-Series” refers to the following ATL Tape
Library™ models: P2000, P3000, P4000, and P7000.

4 FC230 Router Configuration
The look, feel, and operation of the library’s graphical user interface
(GUI) panel remains unchanged.
Key to Successful
Configuration of the
FC230 0
The FC230 must be configured using the on-board FC230 router
Services software. The key to successfully configuring the FC230
Option is to know how many:
• SCSI buses are present in the library
• SCSI devices are connected to each bus
FC230 Router Configuration 0
The FC230 router configuration includes the following steps:
•Connect a Service PC to the Library
•Start the FC230 Services Software
•Upgrade the FC230 Firmware
•Scan the SCSI Buses
Connect a Service PC
to the Library 0
To connect a service PC to the library:
1Open the library back access panel (see figure 1).
Figure 1 Opening the Rear
Access Panel (ATL P2000
library shown)
Caution: If there is more than one FC230 board in the library, be
sure to repeat this procedure for each board.

library cabinet.
5Close the library back access panel.
6Connect the opposite end of the serial cable to the com port on a
service PC.
7Turn on the PC.
8Bring up a terminal emulation program on the PC such as
HyperTerminal or ProComm.
9Set the PC com port operation as follows:
• Baud rate: 9600
• Data bits: 8
• Stop bits: 1
•Parity:none
• Flow control: none
• Properties/Setting/Function,...keys act as: Windows keys
Caution: If the panel is left open with the library power on, the
electronics will overheat and generate an error.

Fibre Channel CLI commands have four types of operation:
• Immediate—causes an immediate action; not preceded by a get or
set operation
• Get—returns the current value of a parameter (abbreviated “g”)
• Set—changes the value of a parameter (abbreviated “s”).
Note: Firmware version 2.11 or higher automatically enables
echo mode.

10 CLI Command Syntax
• Usage—if an operation type cannot be determined, the “Usage”
form is assumed and a brief help message appears.
Many Set commands require a SaveConfiguration command to take
effect. When this is required, an asterisk appears next to the command
line prompt.
CLI Command Syntax 0
The information below can help you make proper CLI entries.
Number and String
Entry 0
Decimal numbers may be entered raw (ex: 123), octal numbers must be
preceded by “0” (ex: 0713), and hexadecimal numbers must be
preceded by the C-style “0x” prefix (ex: 9x1FA4).
Quoted strings are treated as a single parameter for any command that
expects character input, regardless of space within the string.
Command Entry 0The following is a list of symbols used commonly used with
commands:
• [ ] indicates required entry
• < > indicates optional entry
• | indicates choose one entry
CLI commands are not case sensitive. Upper and lowercase characters
have been used in this document to aid readability.
List of Abbreviations 0The following list of abbreviations are used in command lines:
• fp: Fibre Channel port number (0 - 2)
• fl: Fibre Channel LUN (0 - 31)

‘DeviceType’ field displays the SCSI device type for each
device. The ‘VendorId’, ‘ProductId’, and ‘Serial Number’
fields display the SCSI Inquiry data identifying the device.
Note that the SerialNumber field displays up to 16 of the least
significant digits of the device serial number. the
