Compatible servers and software
The TS4500 tape library is supported by a wide variety of servers, operating systems, and adapters. There are several ways to determine the servers and software that support the TS4500 tape library.
These attachments can change throughout the lifecycle of the product. To determine the current
list of compatibility components, perform one of the following actions:
- Visit the web:
- For a list of compatible software, operating systems, and servers for LTO and 3592 tape drives, download the Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Matrix.
- For complete IBM® storage interoperability information for the TS4500 tape library in a storage area network (SAN) configuration, refer to the IBM System Storage Interoperation Center (SSIC). The SSIC has details on supported operating systems, servers, switches, and adapters.
- Contact your IBM sales representative.
Notes:
- IBM does not provide application software with the TS4500 tape library. To order software, contact your IBM sales representative, IBM business partner, or an independent software provider.
- If you attach your library to a non-IBM platform with non-IBM software, contact your software vendor for a matrix of compatible hardware, software, firmware revisions, and adapter cards.
