Tape Drive into an HP-UX System
1.
Introduction
This document provides instructions for integrating a Quantum
®
Super DLTtape™ or
DLTtape™ tape drive into an HP
®
9000 Series 700, 800 System running HP-UX
®
10.X
or 11.X.
1.1
Purpose and Scope
This document pertains to the following products:
•
Tape drives: DLT 2000, DLT 2000XT, DLT 4000, DLT 7000, DLT 8000,
SDLT 220, and SDLT 320. For the DLT 8000, HP-UX permits connectivity on
versions 10.20 and above.
Note:
The Super DLT1 tape drive is currently known as the SDLT 220.
•
Mini-libraries: DLT 2500, DLT 2500XT, DLT 2700, DLT 2700XT, DLT 4500,
and DLT 4700.
Note:
HP-UX will not recognize DLT 2000 series products, but will attempt
to apply generic tape drive parameters. Generic settings are likely to
limit drive performance. These models are not supported with an HP-
UX fbackup/frecover command.
