Understanding the FCR200
Configuration
Of primary importance in configuring the FCR200 is
determining the mode of operation required. The unit can be
configured to support Fibre Channel hosts communicating
with SCSI targets, or SCSI hosts communicating with Fibre
Channel targets. The default configuration of the unit allows
for Fibre Channel hosts to connect to SCSI targets.
Configuration is needed in some cases to modify the method
in which this occurs, as well as to support SCSI hosts
communicating with Fibre Channel targets. Other functions
and features can be configured as well, and are discussed
further in this chapter.
A typical configuration would have a Fibre Channel host
connecting via an arbitrated loop to the FCR200, with SCSI
target devices attached to the FCR200. This configuration,
using a tape library and drives, is represented in Figure 5-1.
The factory default configuration of the unit allows such a
configuration to work without further configuration in most
cases. It should, however, be recognized that more complex
installations or specific application requirements may require
one or more configuration elements to be changed from the
default settings.
