Preface

This guide is intended for service representatives, hardware engineers, software engineers, and operating system designers and developers responsible for implementing StorageTek's version of the small computer system interface (SCSI) over Fibre Channel interface (FCP) for Oracle's Automated Cartridge System Library System (ACSLS) 8.x.

This guide contains information about the small computer system interface, including SCSI characteristics, library features, SCSI bus operations, SCSI commands, status byte data, and sense data. This guide also contains information about the Fibre Channel interface, including Fibre Channel operations, command implementations, topologies, cables, and connectors.

Note:

This guide does not describe the SCSI bus controls and commands or the Fibre Channel operations and commands for the tape drives in the library.
