Configuring Host Access

3 Select a host and click Add (you can only add one host at a time).
4 Under
Add a Host, enter or modify the host name in the Name field
and select the host type from the
Select Type drop-down list.
5 Click
Apply.
This registers the host. The page reloads so you are now viewing the
Registered Hosts list on the
Setup - Host Registration screen. The host
you just added appears on the Registered Hosts list (and no longer
appears on the Unregistered Hosts list).
6 If you need to register more hosts from the Unregistered Hosts list,
click
Add again to see the list of unregistered hosts, and proceed from
Step 4

Enabling Tape Drives for
Host Access 6
Tape drives must be enabled for host access before you can map hosts to
them.
1 Navigate to
Setup > Host Access > Host Connections, or click the
Access button from the Setup - Host Registration screen.
The
Setup - Host Connections screen appears, displaying a list of all
tape drives that can be enabled for host access.
2 Select the
Access Control check box of all tape drives you want to
enable for host access.
3 Clear the
Access Control check box of any tape drives you do not
want to enable for host access.
4 Click
Apply.
5 Click
Next to go to the next screen to map hosts to tape drives and
partitions. (If the
Next button does not appear on the screen, it means
no tape drives are enabled for host access.)
Note: If you disable a tape drive that was previously enabled
and mapped to hosts, the tape drive can be accessed by all
hosts. However, the library keeps track of the mapped
connections, so that if you re-enable the tape drive later,
the connections you had before are reinstated.
