If you select a library such as the ATL P1000 or ATL P7000, the
DXi8500 appears as the selected library to the host and backup
application. If you select Quantum DXi8500, the host and
backup application recognize the device as a Quantum
DXi8500.
Note: Quantum recommends that you set the library model
to Quantum DXi8500 for best compatibility. If your
backup application does not support the Quantum
DXi8500 inquiry string, select a different library model.
Check your software compatibility guide to verify what
library models are supported.
