Devices Not Auto-Configurable

You should be aware of the following caveat before executing the wizard:

It is possible that the Device Configuration Wizard will set up some, but not all, of the tape drives and media changers in your Enterprise. For example, a device (tape drive or media changer) might not be configurable by the wizard if DPX cannot detect a Unique ID for that device.

Any device not completely set up by the Device Configuration Wizard should be set up manually, using the procedures described in:

• Chapter 34: Device Detection

• Chapter 35: Manual Tape Library Installation

• Chapter 36: Tape Library Verification

• Chapter 37: Overview of Manual Tape Library Configuration

Before starting the Device Configuration Wizard, you can determine whether a given device is configurable by the wizard by running “detect -q” from a device server node that is accessible to the device. The Detect utility is described in detail in Chapter 34: Device Detection. The Auto field on the output report produced by Detect indicates whether the device can be set up with Device Configuration Wizard.
