3 A TTO T echnology Inc. FastS tream VT 5300 Installation and Operation Manual 1.1 Physical attributes The A TTO FastS tream VT 5300 is a Fibr e Channel to SCSI virtual tape appliance which can be seam lessly integrated into an existing storage envir onment.
4 Installation A bicolor Ready/Fault LED is lighted green to indicate ready , lighted yel low to show a faulted condition, and off indicates not ready . SCSI ports: A green LED on each port indicates activity if is li t. Fibre Channel port: bicolor LED indicates FC speed.
5 A TTO T echnology Inc. FastS tream VT 5300 Installation and Operation Manual 2.0 Inst allation If you have not alr eady completed the instructions on the Quick S tart page packed with your FastS tr eam VT 5300, use the following instructions to install the FastS tream VT 5300.
6 • The switch(es) allows UDP broadcast messages to be passed through. • A router is not placed between the host running QuickNav and the FastStre am VT 5300. • You have connected the FastStream VT 5300 and the network using at least Cat5e cabling.
7 A TTO T echnology Inc. FastS tream VT 5300 Installation and Operation Manual 2.1 Configure V irtual T ape The A TTO FastS tr e am VT 5300 allows configuration of storage into a JBOD, RAID Level 0, RAID Level 1, RAID Level 10 or RAID Level 5 V irtual T ape Libr ary (VTL).
8 Use quick initia l configuration Quick Configuration quickly generates a V irtual T ape Library after you answer a few key questions. The procedure uses all attached SCSI disks to build a single VTL. If you want to initially create more than one VTL, use custom setup.
9 A TTO T echnology Inc. FastS tream VT 5300 Installation and Operation Manual are filled in automatica lly by the FastStream but you may change thes e parameters if you wish. 9 Click Next . 10 The Virtual Tape Library Setup page appear s. If the new configuration is the way you want it, click on Commit.
10 Secure dat a through Wr ite Protection For added security , write protection can be enabled for any tape cartridge with a VTL. When write protection is enabled, existing data on the tape cartridge cannot be overwritten or erased.
