You can manually swich the active Fibre Channel port on a DPF-enabled
tape drive by forcing a failover. You might want to force a failover to
Note: The illustration shows Port 1 as the default data port and Port
2 as the default failover port, but these defaults apply only if
the data path failover feature is not enabled when you insert
cables.
If data path failover is enabled, the first port into which you
insert a cable becomes the active data port and the second

failover is enabled and you insert a cable into Port 2, that
port becomes the active data port. Inserting a cable into Port
1 makes that the port used for data path failover.
