Getting Started
Introduction
ADIC has designed the Virtual Library System (VLS) for high-capacity, near and off-line
storage applications, such as backup, hierarchical storage management (HSM) and
video/design/data file libraries. For the most part, installation is simply a matter of checking
all necessary SCSI connections, installing the software (backup or otherwise) and applying
power. The defaults set at the factory should be sufficient for most applications.
Requirements
8 .0 in.
20.3 cm
15 .8 in.
40.1 cm
17.4 in
44.2 c m
❐
Space requirements: the VLS has a footprint of 17.4" x 15.8". You must allow adequate
clearance to the rear (2 inches or more) and bottom (do not place on carpeting) to allow
air flow. Also allow enough room at the front to open the door (which is 8" high and
hinged at the bottom).
❐
Host computer system: We assume that you are familiar with your computer system. The
VLS must be integrated with the host computer system. The backup software, SCSI host
adapter (if required) and any additional, or different, SCSI interface cables must be
purchased separately.
❐
Mode of operation: You must know whether the VLS will be operating in sequential-
access or random-access mode. This will be determined by the backup software you use.
❐
Necessary tools: No special tools are required to install the VLS. If you are installing a
SCSI host adapter at this time, refer to the installation manual for your host adapter.
