Chapter 2 Using Your CD-ROM Drive • CD-ROM drive and media descriptions • Loading and unloading a CD-ROM disc • Verifying the CD-ROM drive operation • Using device files • Mounting and unmounting a CD-ROM disc • Reading the busy light • Troubleshooting 2-1
This chapter provides an overview of the optional CD-ROM drive and media, and describes how to use the CD-ROM drive. We assume the CD-ROM drive is set to the factory default address of SCSI ID 2. The instructions in this chapter assume you are using the HP-UX version 10.20 or later operating system with the HP VUE version 3.0 interface. 2-2 NOTICE: Be sure you have read and understand the information on mounting and unmounting CD-ROM discs before you begin using your CD-ROM disc drive.
CD-ROM Drive and CD-ROM Media Descriptions This section describes basic information needed for using the CDROM drive and CD-ROM discs. CD-ROM Drive The CD-ROM drive is a random access read-only mass storage device that uses removable CD-ROM discs. The drive supports the ISO 9660 and High Sierra format standards. You can access information from the drive like any other disk drive, except that you cannot write to the drive.
Table 2–1. CD-ROM Drive Operating Controls and Features Headphone Jack You can plug mini-headphones with a 3.5 mm diameter miniature stereo plug into this jack. Volume Control Use the volume control to adjust the audio output volume to the headphone jack. Busy Indicator The Busy Indicator lights during a data access operation and blinks during a data transfer.
CD-ROM Media CD-ROM discs are identical to audio compact discs (CDs), except that they store computer data. CD-ROM discs are 120 mm (4.7 in.) in diameter, and use one data surface with a capacity of 600 megabytes. The data surface contains pits and flat spots arranged in a continuous spiral track, which is read at a constant speed. You may access files and data stored on a CDROM disc, but you may not write files or data to a CD-ROM disc. CAUTION: Handle CD-ROM discs by the edges only.
Operating the CD-ROM Drive This section describes how to perform tasks with your CD-ROM drive. Loading and Unloading a CD-ROM Disc This section describes how to load or unload a CD-ROM disc. Loading a CD-ROM Disc This CD-ROM drive has an automatic loading/ejecting feature. To load a disc in the CD-ROM drive, follow these steps: 1. Press and release the eject button on the CD-ROM drive. The disc tray opens partway, as shown in Figure 2–2.
2. Gently pull the disc tray fully open. 3. Hold the disc by the edges with the label side up and place it in the disc tray as shown in Figure 2–3. Figure 2–3. Placing the CD-ROM Disc in the Disc Tray 4. Press down gently on the center of the CD-ROM disc to make sure it is seated on the disc tray hub, shown in Figure 2–3.
5. Gently push the disc tray in until it is closed, as shown in Figure 2–4. Figure 2–4.
Unloading a CD-ROM Disc To unload a disc from the Disc Tray, follow these steps: 1. Press and release the eject button on the CD-ROM drive. The disc tray opens approximately 1 inch, as shown in Figure 2–5. Figure 2–5. CD-ROM Disc Tray Partway Open 2. Gently pull the disc tray fully open.

Terminal Control A terminal window opens. 2. Move the mouse cursor into the terminal window and click the left mouse button. 3. Enter the following at the prompt: /usr/sbin/ioscan –d sdisk 2-12 Enter .
After a few moments the ioscan utility lists all of the SCSI I/O devices it could find. The list appears similar to the following: H/W Path Class Description ============================================ bc 8 bc I/O Adapter 8/0 ext_bus GSC built-in Fast/Wide SCSI Interface 8/0.0 target 8/0.0.0 disk QUANTUM LPS1080WD 8/0.5 target 8/0.5.0 disk DEC DSP3210SW 8/0.6 target 8/0.6.0 disk DEC DSP3210SW 8/12 ba Core I/O Adapter 8/12/5 ext_bus Built-in SCSI 8/12/5.2 target 8/12/5.2.
Using Device Files Device files are special files that tell your system which pathway to use through the system hardware when communicating with a specific device and what kind of device it is. To determine what device files are available for use with your CD– ROM drive, use the following procedure: NOTICE: 1. In a terminal window, enter the following command: sam 2-14 The device file names will depend on the naming conventions of your particular system.
Mounting and Unmounting a CD-ROM Disc To access information on a CD-ROM disc, you must first mount the disc. This applies to file system information only. If you wish to load a music CD, for example, you would not need to mount the disc. Mounting a disc with file system information on it gives the disc a pathname that allows your workstation to communicate electronically with it. You must unmount the CD-ROM disc before removing it from the drive.
5. The Peripheral Devices window opens. Double–click on Disks and File Systems–>. 6. The Disks and File Systems window opens. Double–click on CD–ROM, Floppy, and Hard Disks. The following screen message appears: Scanning the system’s hardware... The CD–ROM, Floppy, and Hard Disks window opens containing a list of drives currently configured on thie system. Disks that are unmounted have the word ”unused” in the Use column. 7. From the Actions menu, click on Add a Hard Disk Drive. 8.
Click on OK . Now you can access the CD-ROM disc as you would any other mounted file system. Unmounting a CD-ROM Disc Using SAM Use the following procedure to unmount a CD-ROM disc: NOTICE: Before you unmount a CD-ROM disc, make sure that your working directory (the directory in which a relative path name search begins) is set to some directory other than the one under which the disc was mounted.
5. The Disks and File Systems window opens. Double-click on CD-ROM, Floppy, and Hard Disks. The following screen message appears: Scanning the system’s hardware... The CD-ROM, Floppy, and Hard Disks window opens containing a list of drives currently configured on this system. 6. Highlight the disc you want to unmount and click on Remove a Hard Disk Drive from the Actions menu. 7. A window with the following message opens: Do you want to remove the disk? Click on 8. 2-18 Yes . The system reboots.
Reading the Busy Light The CD-ROM busy light shows the status of the drive during the self test and during activity with the host system. The CD-ROM drive performs the self test when one of the following happens: • • You load a disc and close the Disc Tray. You turn on the workstation with a disc already loaded in the CD-ROM drive. For the self test, the busy light operates in the following sequence: 1. Light On – The busy light goes on when the disc loads into the drive. 2.
Troubleshooting If you have trouble with any of these procedures for using your CDROM drive, see Chapter 5 of this book, “Solving Problems.
Chapter 3 Using Your DDS Tape Drive • DDS tape drive and data cassette descriptions • Setting the write-protect tab on a data cassette • Operating the DDS tape drive • Loading and unloading a data cassette • Using device files • Archiving data in compressed and non-compressed mode • Troubleshooting • Ordering information 3-1
This chapter describes how to perform tasks that archive to and transfer data from the optional DDS tape drive. It also describes how to maintain and care for the drive. We assume the DDS tape drive is set to the factory default address of SCSI ID 3. The instructions in this chapter assume you are using the HP-UX version 10.20 or later operating system with the HP VUE version 3.0 interface. CAUTION: Use only data cassettes labeled DDS (Digital Data Storage) cassettes.
DDS Tape Drive and Data Cassette Descriptions This section describes basic information needed for using your DDS tape drive and data cassettes. Depending on your configuration, your DDS drive may be a DDS-DC drive, or a DDS-2 drive. NOTICE: In most cases, the information for using these drives is the same; however, in a few instances (such as the LED codes), the information differs for each drive.
LEDs – DDS-DC Drive This section describes the LED codes that are displayed. LEDs (light emitting diodes) indicate different activities or problems that occur with your workstation hardware The front panel has two colored LEDs: the Cassette Light and the Drive Light. A green light indicates normal operation, and an amber light indicates a warning condition. Pulsing shows activity between the drive and the SCSI bus.
LED Warning Conditions – DDS-DC Drive The following sections describe actions to take if the LEDs indicate a warning condition. High Humidity If the LEDs display the high humidity signal, the humidity is too high and the drive does not perform any operations until the humidity drops. Self-Test (Failure) If the LEDs display the self-test (failure) signal, a fault was diagnosed during the self tests. Note the pattern of the pulses and contact your local service representative.
4. If you are performing a backup from disk to tape, discard the data cassette and back up your files using a new data cassette. 5. If you are performing a restore from tape to disk, complete the restore, then discard the data cassette and back up the files to a new data cassette. LEDs – DDS-2 The front panel has two colored LEDs: the Tape Light and the Clean/ Attention Light. The Tape Light flashes green to show activity (loading, unloading, reading, and writing).
Data Cassettes Media Life HP DDS data cassettes are currently specified to 2000 passes over any part of the tape under optimal environmental conditions (50% relative humidity, 22 degrees C). During a tape operation, any one area of the tape may have multiple passes over the heads. This translates into approximately 200 to 300 backups or restores. Under certain conditions, the life of your data cassette is less.
Media Restrictions If you interchange media between other HP workstation DDS tape drives, note that data cassettes with compressed data can only be read by tape drives that have data compression capabilities. This includes data cassettes that contain both compressed and noncompressed data. Setting the Write-Protect Tab on a Data Cassette You can only store or change information on a data cassette when the write-protect tab is in the write position.
Operating the DDS Tape Drive This section describes how to perform tasks with your DDS tape drive. Loading and Unloading a Data Cassette Follow these steps to load and unload a data cassette in the DDS tape drive: 1. Turn on power to the tape drive. 2. Insert the data cassette into the drive, as shown in Figure 3–3. Eject Button Figure 3–3.
3. Push the data cassette about three quarters of the way into the drive. The drive automatically pulls the data cassette the rest of the way in. When the LEDs on the front of the drive stop flashing, the drive has loaded the data cassette. 4. To remove the data cassette, press and release the eject button on the front of the drive, as shown in Figure 3–3. The LEDs on the drive flash on and off. Ten to twenty seconds later, the data cassette slides partway out of the drive.
After a few moments the ioscan utility returns a message similar to the following: H/W Path Class Description ============================================ bc 8 bc I/O Adapter 8/12 ba Core I/O Adapter 8/12/5 ext_bus Built-in SCSI 8/12/5.3 target 8/12/5.3.0 tape HP HP35480A If ioscan does not see any SCSI drives it will return the following message: ioscan: No hardware found If you receive this message, go to Chapter 5, “Solving Problems.
Device files are special files that tell your system which system hardware pathway to use when communicating with a specific device and what kind of device it is. Using Device Files Your system has four default device files for use with your tape drive: two device files for noncompressed mode and two device files for compressed mode. If you use these device files, you do not need to create any device files.
3. The Peripheral Devices window opens. Double–click on Tape Drives –>. 4. The Tape Drives window opens. 5. In the list of tape drives, clock on the desired tape drive to select it. 6. From the Action menu, click on Show Device Files. A window opens with a list of the device files for the selected tape drive with an explanation of each one.
Device Files — Data Compression If you wish to use the data compression feature, use the device files /dev/rmt/3hc and /dev/rmt/3hcn, which are set for SCSI ID 3. If you use the /dev/rmt/3hc device file, the tape drive compresses the data and rewinds the data cassette every time the system releases the drive from its control. If you use the /dev/rmt/3hcn device file, the drive compresses the data, but does not rewind the data cassette. The tape stays where it was after the last operation.
Writing to a Data Cassette Use the following instructions to save files to a data cassette: 1. Check that the write-protect tab on the data cassette is in the write position. 2. Load the data cassette into the tape drive. 3.
where devicefile is one of the device files listed from sam, and pathname is the pathname of the file or directory containing files that you want to restore from the tape. If pathname is not specified, everything on the data cassette is restored. To use the data compression mode, use one of the device file names that sam listed as supporting compression..
Listing the Files on a Data Cassette Use the following instructions to list the files on a data cassette: 1. Load the data cassette into the tape drive. 2. In a terminal window, enter the following command line to receive a file listing of the data cassette: tar –tvf /dev/rmt/devicefile Enter where devicefile is one of the device files listed from sam. If the tape was made with data compression, use on the the device file names that sam listed as supporting compression.
Further Command Information The man utility looks up man pages on the system. For additional information on using tar and a complete list of the command arguments, refer to the tar man page by typing the following: man tar Enter You may also communicate with the tape drive with the cpio, ftio, mt, and fbackup commands.
Ordering Information To order Hewlett-Packard data cassettes and cleaning cassettes for use in your DDS tape drive, use the following order numbers: • • • • • HP92283A Box of five 60–meter DDS data cassettes HP92283B Box of five 90–meter DDS data cassettes HP92300A Box of five 120-meter DDS data cassettes (for DDS-2 drive only) HP92283K Package of two cleaning cassettes HP92283L Lockable storage box for 12 cassettes CAUTION: Use only data cassettes labeled as DDS (Digital Data Storage) cassettes

If you have a problem that isn’t listed in this chapter, or if your problem persists, contact your designated service representative. When calling for service, always have your system’s model number and serial number ready. The instructions in this chapter assume you are using the HP-UX version 10.20 or later operating system with the HP VUE version 3.0 graphical interface.
Common Problems and Solutions The tables in this section list common problems you may encounter with your workstation. The tables also tell you what to do to help solve the problems. Table 5–1. Problems Powering Up the System Problem Solution The power LED doesn’t light. Make sure all ac power cables are connected securely to the system. Make sure the power cord is plugged into a working ac outlet. Make sure the power switch is set to the ON position.
Table 5–2. Problems Loading and Booting the Operating System Problem Solution The power LED is lit, and text appears on the screen, but more than two minutes have passed with no sign of system activity. Make sure that all SCSI devices are set to the proper SCSI ID. (See Appendix C for default SCSI ID settings.) The system stops or hangs while booting. Follow the instructions in “Dealing With a Boot Failure,” later in this chapter. Check that all SCSI devices are correctly cabled.
Table 5–3. Problems with the 802.3 Network Problem Solution Can’t reach other systems on the network. Applications that rely on the network won’t run. Check the network connector on the back of the system unit. Make sure that the network cable or transceiver is fastened securely to the connector. If problems persist, contact your system administrator or call your designated service representative.
Table 5–4. Problems Using a Hard Disk Drive Problem Solution The disk drive is not accessible or does not respond. Make sure that all SCSI devices are set to the proper SCSI ID. (See Appendix C for default SCSI ID settings.) Check that all SCSI devices are correctly cabled. Check that the SCSI bus is correctly terminated. (See Appendix C for information on SCSI cabling and termination.) Make sure that the system can communicate with the drive as described in “Checking the SCSI IDs” in Appendix B.
Table 5–5. Problems Using the CD-ROM Drive Problem Solution The CD-ROM drive does not respond to commands. Re-enter the commands and make sure that you have typed them correctly. Make sure that the system can communicate with the drive as described in “Checking the SCSI IDs” in Appendix B. Follow the instructions in the section entitled “Running System Verification Tests” later in this chapter to verify that the CD-ROM drive is functioning properly.
Table 5–6. Problems Using the DDS Tape Drive Problem Solution The DDS tape drive does not respond to commands. Re-enter the commands and make sure that you have typed them correctly. Make sure that you specified the correct device file name for commands that require a device file name. Make sure the write-protect tab is set to write if you are trying to copy data to a data cassette. Make sure that the system can communicate with the drive as described in “Checking the SCSI IDs” in Appendix B.

Make sure that the write-protect tab is set to write if you are trying to copy data to a floppy diskette.
Dealing with a Boot Failure If your usual boot device (typically a disk) is not responding as it should, you must try to boot from the disk (or another boot device) by selecting it manually. To boot a device manually, follow these steps: 1. Follow the directions in “Accessing the Boot Console Interface,” in Appendix D of this book. NOTICE: 2. Your workstation automatically shuts down the operating system before it terminates the power.
Memory Failures J Class systems use Memory Page Deallocation, a feature that allows the system to provide information to the operating system about memory failures. HP-UX 10.20 uses Memory Page Deallocation information to map out the failing memory areas, and continue normal operation. You can use the command memrpt with the detail switch to obtain information about the Memory Page Deallocation Table (PDT) as well as single bit errors logged by the system.
LCD-Indicated Problems Your workstation uses an LCD panel to display firmware/OS progress codes. The codes, referred to as chassis codes, consist of one of the mnemonics listed below, followed by a 4-digit hex number identifying the code module being executed.
The windows are as follows: Window 1 When the system is hard booted, the LCD will be cleared and the following message will be displayed for approximately 1 second. Then the processor dependent hardware (pdh) is verified. Proceeding To Turn DC On <– line 1 <– line 2 Window 2 While the pdh is being verified, the following message is displayed: ZZZZ YYYY Selftest Sys Bd <– line 1 <– line 2 Window 3 After the pdh is verified, the selftest is executed.
Window 5 When an attempt to boot is made, the following message is displayed once IPL is successfully loaded and launched: ZZZZ YYYY CPUXX♥ <– line 1 BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB <– line 2 – ’♥’ flashes with Z Y field change where BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB is the model number (for example, 9000/J200). If the system encounters an FLT code while the system is booting, the FLT code is interpreted and a messages is displayed. For the meaning of the fault code, see the J Class Service Handbook.
Running System Verification Tests HP-UX uses a diagnostics product called the Support Tools Manager that allows system operation verification.

This appendix provides information about connecting Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) devices to an HP 9000 J282/2240 workstation. The instructions in this chapter assume you are using the HP-UX version 10.20 or later operating system with the HP VUE version 3.0 interface. NOTICE: C-2 When attaching external SCSI devices, be sure to terminate the last device on the external SCSI bus.
SCSI Bus Differences A Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI) bus is an IEEE standard bus for connecting your workstation to internal and external devices (SCSI devices) running at different speeds, singly or in combination. Examples of these SCSI devices are floppy disk drives, 4-mm DDSformat tape drives, CD-ROM drives, and Winchester hard disk drives.

SCSI Restrictions This section describes the SCSI restrictions that apply to your workstation in the following areas: • Cables • Connectors and terminator • SCSI configuration constraints Cables All SCSI devices ship without cables. Only SCSI cables approved by HP can be used to connect your workstation and any SCSI devices. HP offers the following SCSI cables for narrow single-ended SCSI devices: • K2296 cable with 0.9 meter (3 feet) length • K2297 cable with 1.
vices. Use of other cables can result in significant problems with system operation. Narrow singled-ended SCSI definition limits the total cable length of SCSI cables to 6 meters (19.6 feet). Fast, wide differential SCSI definition limits the total cable length of SCSI cables to 25 meters (82 feet). Ultra, wide–SE SCSI definition limits the total cable length of SCSI cables to 3 meters (9.84 feet). Always use the shortest possible cable(s) for your configuration.
Connectors and Terminator Any narrow, single-ended SCSI device connecting to the system box must use a 50-pin high-density thumb screw connector on the end connecting to the system board, and a 50-pin low-density bail lock connector on the other end. If you attach a second SCSI device, the cable must have low-density connectors on each end. Any fast, wide differential or ultra, wide–SE SCSI device connecting to the system box must use a 68-pin high-density thumb screw connector on both ends.
vices per system. Table C–3 shows configuration constraints for each narrow, single-ended SCSI device type. If the system has internal hard disk drives or a floppy disk drive, you must count them as SCSI devices. Table C–3.
Fast, Wide Differential SCSI Bus Configuration Constraints Fast, wide differential SCSI does not work with the narrow, single-ended SCSI. Table C–4 shows the configuration constraints for each fast, wide differential SCSI device type. Table C–4.
Determining SCSI Bus Length This section helps you to determine the total length of the narrow, single-ended SCSI bus, the fast, wide differential SCSI bus and the ultra, wide–SE SCSI bus. Narrow, Single-Ended SCSI Bus Length Follow these instructions to calculate your total narrow, single-ended SCSI bus length (including the system unit, external SCSI devices, and SCSI interconnect cables) using Table C–6: 1. Find all of your external NSE SCSI devices in the first column.
NSE SCSI Bus Length is greater than 6 meters (19.6 feet), try configuring your installation with shorter cables. If you have problems, call your designated service representative.

4. You can determine which SCSI IDs are currently in use by looking under the H/W Path heading. The J2240 lists 8/4/19/0 as the built-in SCSI bus controller. For devices connected to the builtin SCSI bus, such as disks, the fourth number is the SCSI ID for that device. For example, the listing 8/4/19/0.6.0 tells you that there is a SCSI device (a disk) currently using ID 6 on the SCSI bus.
ing drive ID, you need to assign a new SCSI device ID to your drive. See the drive installation documentation for information on changing the device ID. CAUTION: Do not use SCSI device ID 7 for any device except the system card.

Write in the type of external single-ended drives currently connected to your workstation under the heading “External Device Drives” and each drive’s SCSI device ID under the heading “Device ID Number.” 7. Add your new drive to the table if it is an external device. If it is an internal drive, continue to Step 8. NOTICE: 8. The C1700A Magneto-Optical Autochanger uses three SCSI IDs, and accounts for three of the seven devices allowed on the SCSI bus.
Fast, Wide Differential SCSI IDs Before assigning a SCSI device ID to your drive, you need to check your SCSI device IDs. To check which SCSI device IDs are available and assign an ID to your device, follow these instructions which use Table C–10: 1. Write in the type of internal drives currently connected to your system under the heading “Fast, Wide Differential SCSI Device Drives” and each drive’s SCSI device ID under the heading “Device ID Number.” 2. Add your new drive to the table. 3.
Ultra, Wide–SE SCSI IDs Before assigning a SCSI device ID to your drive, you need to check your SCSI device IDs. To check which SCSI device IDs are available and assign an ID to your device, follow these instructions which use Table C–11: 1. Write in the type of internal drives currently connected to your system under the heading “Ultra, Wide SCSI Device Drives” and each drive’s SCSI device ID under the heading “Device ID Number.” 2. Add your new drive to the table. 3.
Connecting to the SCSI Ports This section describes how to connect to the system SCSI ports (narrow single-ended, ultra, wide–SE and fast,wide differential). System SCSI Port Connection The system contains two (2) SCSI connectors: • • System Single-Ended SCSI-2 Connector System Fast, Wide Differential or Ultra, Wide–SE SCSI Connector Figure C–1 shows the rear panel with terminators attached to the two SCSI connectors.

Setting the Auto Boot and Auto Search Flags auto boot and auto search are variables stored in your workstation’s nonvolatile memory. (Nonvolatile memory retains its contents even after power is turned off.) If you reset these flags to new value, the change takes effect the next time you reboot the workstation. auto boot boots the operating system whenever your workstation is turned on.
Autosearch searches for devices in the following order: Primary boot path Alternate boot path Built–in fast, wide SCSI devices Built–in single–ended SCSI devices Built–in LAN bootp servers NOTICE: D-32 Fast wide SCSI adapter option cards installed in the option slots are not searched unless they are referenced by the primary or alternate boot paths. EISA cards are not searched.
Displaying and Setting the Security Mode The SECure flag is a variable stored in non–volatile memory. (Non– volitalmemory retains its contents even after power is turned off.) If you reset this flag to a new value, the change takes effect the next time you reboot the workstation. When the SECure flag is set to on, autoboot and autosearch are enabled and cannot be stopped. The system boots from the default boot paths regardless of user intervention.
Displaying and Setting the Fastboot Mode When fastboot is enabled (set to on), your workstation does a quick check of the memory and skips I/O interface testing during its power– on self tests. This enables your workstation to complete its boot process quicker. The default factory setting is for fastboot to be enabled (on). The fastboot mode allows your workstation to boot quickly by performing a less extensive check of the system’s memory.
Displaying the LAN Station Address It is sometimes necessary to supply a LAN station address of your workstation to other users. For example, if your workstation is to become a member of a cluster, the cluster administrator needs to know your LAN station address in order to add your workstation to the cluster. A LAN station address of your workstation is the label that uniquely identifies the LAN connection for your workstation at the link level (the hardware level).
To select 10 Mbits/sec network speed and full duplex mode, type the following at the prompt: Configuration Menu: Enter command > LanConfig 10/Full_dx To select 100 Mbits/sec network speed and half duplex mode, type the following at the prompt: Configuration Menu: Enter command > LanConfig 100/Half_dx To select 100 Mbits/sec network speed and full duplex mode, type the following at the prompt: Configuration Menu: Enter command > LanConfig 100/Full_dx To select the AUI port (10 Mbits/sec, half duplex only), t
