Resolving errors with Fibre Channel communications Refer to a list of actions to identify and resolve communication errors with Fibre Channel devices. About this task The following steps help you to identify the source of the problem and resolve the error. Perform these steps if the host is unable to communicate with one of more Fibre Channel devices in the library. Procedure Ensure that all Fibre Channel cables from the host to the library are securely connected at both ends. If multiple Fibre Channel drives exist on a single loop (as when multiple drives are connected to a hub), ensure that each device on the loop has a unique loop ID. Ensure that all Fibre Channel host adapters are supported (for a list of supported adapters, refer to/servers/storage/tape/drives. Under the appropriate tape drive, select?Product details. Then, select?Host bus adapter. Or, contact your IBM? sales representative). Ensure that the appropriate levels of device driver are installed and that any other prerequisites are satisfied. If you are connecting through a storage area network (SAN) Data Gateway, ensure that the gateway has the appropriate level of firmware (see note at the end of table). If you have 4 Gb Fibre Channel backend switches (FC 4872 or 4873)?or 8 Gb Fibre Channel backend switches (FC 4875?or 4877)installed on an L23 or D23 frame, contact your service representative. The?TS7700?or?3592-C07?detects any problem with the Fibre Channel switches and generates a Call Home. If the maximum number of cartridges is more than 6 887 for the logical library,?or if the logical library has shuttle stations that are assigned,?ensure that the logical library uses LTO Ultrium 4, 3592 E05, or later tape drives as control path drives. To support more than 6 887 cartridges, Ultrium 4 control path drives require a minimum code level of 97F0.?For logical libraries with shuttle stations, Ultrium 4 control path drives require a minimum code level of A480. Ultrium 5 control path drives require a
