For each parameter, the SCSI Mode Parameters screen shows the
current (Cur), default (Def), and saved (Sav) values:
The current value is the value currently active. It is either the
power-on default or a temporary value set by the latest MODE
SELECT command.
The default value is the original value set at the factory.
The saved value is the value specified as the power-on default
by a MODE SELECT command. After a saved value has been
specified with a MODE SELECT command, this value takes
effect each time you power on the library.
The table below describes the items on the SCSI Mode Parameters
screen.
SCSI mode parameters
CHM Addr* The element address of the cartridge handling mechanism (CHM).
Stor Addr* The element address of the first storage location, which is the fixed
cartridge slot. See Appendix D for the complete numbering scheme.
DriveAddr* The element address of the first tape drive (the top tape drive). The
remaining tape drives are numbered consecutively.
Drive Num The number of tape drives installed.
E/E Addr* The element address of the entry/exit port.
Parity Whether parity checking is enabled for the SCSI bus that is connected to
the library. When the parity option is enabled, the library checks all data
coming across the SCSI bus for parity.
Pty Retry The number of times the library will retry a SCSI phase after detecting a
parity error.
