An automated library is a robotically controlled device that is designed to load and unload removable cartridges without operator intervention. Automated libraries are also known as media changers, jukeboxes, robots, libraries, or media libraries.
This section describes aspects of using automated libraries and manually loaded drives in a SAM-QFS environment. In addition, this section describes the operator-oriented load notification facility that alerts an operator when a requested volume is not in a library.
Note - The SAM-QFS software interoperates with automated libraries from many manufacturers. Contact Oracle Support for information pertinent to library model numbers, firmware levels, and other compatibility information.
