REST over SCSI API reference

API Overview
The TS4500 REST API provides a set of functions that allow tape library administrators to send requests and receive responses using the GET, POST, and PATCH HTTP protocols. REST API commands are sent and responses are received using SCSI Write Buffer and Read Buffer commands, respectively. This method is called REST over SCSI, or RoS for short.
