3.5 Checking Peripherals
Proceed to the subsection for your device:
• CD-ROM Disk Drive
• SCSI Tape Devices
Then review the following subsections:
• LDEV1 Disk Minimum Capacity
• LDEV1 Disk Maximum Capacity
CD-ROM Disk Drive
To update or add-on to your system software using a CD-ROM, you must have a CD-ROM
drive installed and configured. Refer to Appendix E , “CD-ROM Resources.” Verify that the
CD-ROM drive you are using is one of the following:
• HP Series 6100 Model 700/S SCSI (A1999A)
• Toshiba XM-3401TA
• Toshiba XM-4101TA
An Upgrade Kit (C2293U) for the Series 6000 peripheral package allows you to use
internal SCSI drives on some HP 3000 computer systems.
If you do not have one of these compatible drives, contact your HP representative to order
one.
If you have a compatible CD-ROM disk drive, proceed to the subsection, “LDEV 1 Disk
Minimum Capacity.”
SCSI Tape Devices
If you are already on version 5.5 of the system software, skip this section and proceed to
“LDEV 1 Disk Minimum Capacity.”
If your system software version is earlier than 5.0, and you have a SCSI-DDS tape device,
do the following as part of the update to 5.5 before this update to 6.5:
• Verify that your SCSI-DDS devices are using a compatible version of firmware.
• Check the SCSI-DDS devices on each remote system in addition to the local system. If
you are modifying a Remote system, check the SCSI-DDS devices on each remote
system in addition to the local system.
• See further instructions in the 5.5 System Software Installation Manual for Release 5.5.
If you run AUTOINST from one of the listed devices with an incompatible firmware revision,
AUTOINST will fail. The spoolfile output from the restore will include this message:
Unexpected end of file marker found (S/R 9060)
