DLTSage™ Tape Security
The PX720 tape library with DLT-S4 tape drives are capable of utilizing
DLTSage Tape Security. DLTSage Tape Security is a unique solution
designed to prevent unauthorized access to tape cartridges which is
particularly valuable when protecting tapes that are transported offsite.
DLTSage Tape Security is a firmware feature designed into the DLT-S4
tape drive which uses an electronic key to prevent or allow reading and
writing of data on to a tape cartridge. This key is managed through the
remote management pages of the PX720 tape library (see chapter 3,
“Quantum PX720 Remote Management,” ). DLTSage Tape Security is
available at no additional cost as an integrated feature in of the DLT-S4
tape drive and PX720 tape library (firmware revision 4.5 or later).
Mixed Media Support
The PX720 tape library is capable of supporting mixed media in the same
library (SDLT and LTO media) tape drives and media in the same library
frame. You must have at least one bin panel (SDLT or LTO) for each tape
drive type (SDLT or LTO).
SMI-S Support
SMI-S refers to the Storage Management Initiative Specification, which is
a interface standard that enables inter operability in both hardware and
software between storage products from different vendors in a SAN
environment. The interface provides common protocols and data models
that storage product vendors can use to ensure end user manageability of
the SAN environment.
SMI-S was developed by the Storage Networking Industry Association
(SNIA) in 2002.
