StorageTek® Library Manager software, an intelligent
library-control product, provides central
management, sharing and common robotics control for
SCSI-attached automated tape libraries. |
|
Applications |
Tape library management
Library Manager is often used with L-Series™ Library
Admin software and Framework Library Monitor for
complete library management of SCSI-attached tape
libraries. Library Manager software provides central
management, sharing and common robotics control. |
|
Benefits |
Standardized controls
Through standardization the Library Manager
software supports a subset of the widely
accepted ACS API for control of library
functions. Many popular backup applications use
this interface. |
Scalable
With the library control path separate from the
application data path, it’s easy to scale up to
larger automated tape libraries without making
changes to existing network applications. |
Cost
efficient
Library sharing and centralized management
maximize resources and reduce capital equipment
investments. |
|
|
Features |
Backup support
Library Manager software supports backups
generated by applications using the automated
cartridge system application programming
interface (ACS API), including VERITAS, Legato,
Computer Associates, Hewlett Packard and SGI.
|
Integrates easily
Library Manager software integrates with popular
technologies |
GUI
view
Centralized management and library sharing is
controlled through a Java GUI that provides
access to all library-management functions.
Library functions can be controlled from any
remote workstation. |
