Abstract
Configuration information for IBM TS2900 (3572), Overland Storage NEO 100s, and Dell PowerVault TL1000 tape libraries.
Content
- Beginning with Version 7.1.3, IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager is now IBM Spectrum Protect™. Some applications such as the software fulfillment systems and IBM License Metric Tool use the new product name. However, the software and its product documentation continue to use the Tivoli Storage Manager product name. To learn more about the rebranding transition, see technote 1963634.
- Library capacity
1 drive 9 slots
- Barcode requirements
Eight character barcodes are required. The last 2 characters must be the media identifier "Lx" where x is the tape cartridge generation. For example, ABC456L5 is for an LTO-5 cartridge. Without a proper barcode label, a volume will appear as "unknown media".
- ELEMent=AUTODetect in the DEFINE/UPDATE DRIVE command is supported.
- Available drives
- IBM LTO Ultrium 3 HH drives
- IBM LTO Ultrium 4 HH drives
- IBM LTO Ultrium 5 HH drives
- IBM LTO Ultrium 6 HH drives
- IBM LTO Ultrium 7 HH drives
- Support for Ultrium 7 drives is available with the following IBM Spectrum Protect Server versions.
Version Release 7.1.3 or subsequent maintenance release
- See IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server support for Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) devices for information on SAS support.
- IBM device drivers are available at IBM Fix Central. Choose the following options from the drop-down menus.
- Product Group -> System Storage
- System Storage -> Tape systems
- Tape systems -> Tape drivers and software
- Tape drivers and software -> Tape device drivers
- Platform -> select the platform for the device driver that you are looking for
- Device identifications and firmware levels used during validation
(Validated with TSM 5.5.1)
Library ID : IBM 3572-TL --- Firmware : 0001
Drive ID : IBM ULT3580-HH3 --- Firmware : 85P0
(Validated with TSM 5.5.2 on AIX 6.1)
Library ID : IBM 3572-TL --- Firmware : 0001
Drive ID : IBM ULT3580-HH4 --- Firmware : 85V2
Library and drive may require different minimum TSM levels. Therefore, ensure that both library and drive hardware are supported. See "Supported Devices for AIX, HP-UX, Solaris and Windows" or "Supported Devices for Linux" for minimum supported version levels and platforms for these devices.
More information regarding device configuration is available in the Tivoli Storage Manager Administrator's Guide, which can be found in the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager information center.
