Chapter 6 Storage Networking
Configuring Host Access
Scalar i500 User’s Guide 164
• A maximum of 64 host entries can be mapped for access control to
each tape drive, regardless of whether the hosts are mapped to the
tape drive, to the partition for which the drive provides the library
control path, or both. If the same host is mapped to both the tape
drive and the partition, the same host consumes two host entries.
You can only configure host access control from the Web client. The
menu paths are:
•
Setup > Host Access > Host Registration and
•
Setup > Host Access > Host Connections
