VMS Help  —  ROBOT  Connectivity  Direct Connect SCSI Devices
  Use the following procedure to create a tape robot unit:

  1. For SCSI magazine loaders connected directly to an
  SCSI bus, enter the SYSGEN or SYSMAN command in the
  appropriate format:

  VAX system:

      $ MCR SYSGEN CONNECT GKannn:/DRIVER=GKDRIVER/NOADAPTER

  Alpha system:

      $ MCR SYSMAN IO CONNECT GKannn:/DRIVER=SYS$GKDRIVER/NOADAPTER

  Where:  GKannn: is the robot device name. The robot device
  name for a loader is always the same as the tape drive name
  incremented by one, and without any prefixes (allocation
  class or NODE$ prefix) to the GK string. For example, a
  tape drive name of $1$MKA200: could use a robot device
  name of GKA201:.

  2. Compaq recommends that you include the SYSGEN
  commands in your system startup command procedure.
