After installing the VXA-320 tape drive, you may need to integrate it with your
backup software application and computer operating system. The Support
section of Tandberg Data’s web site, www.tandberg.com , provides a list of
backup software applications and operating systems that are compatible with
the VXA-320 tape drive.
If your backup software application does not support the VXA-320 tape drive,
you can use VXATool to change the product identification information
(Inquiry String) that the tape drive returns to the software. Changing the tape
drive’s identification information does not affect the tape drive’s speed or
capacity. For instructions on using VXATool to change the tape drive’s Inquiry
String, refer to the help or readme file provided with VXATool. Additional
information is available at: www.tandberg.com (article #2002).
Refer to the information provided with your backup software application for
device integration instructions. Refer any questions regarding software
configuration and operation to your software provider.
The CD included with the tape drive provides device drivers for use with the
Windows operating system.
!
Important
Do not install these drivers unless you are using the Windows
native backup software application or unless your backup software
application instructs you to do so.
