This chapter provides you with a list of:
The following table provides the list of libraries supported by ACSLS. The second column in this table shows support for a library, and its features added, after ACSLS 7.0.
Table 2-1 Current Libraries Supported
| Library and Library Feature | Support and Maintenance Level after 7.0 |
|---|---|
|
StorageTek SL8500 |
ACSLS 7.1 |
|
StorageTek SL500 |
ACSLS 7.1 with PUT0402 |
|
StorageTek SL3000 |

|
StorageTek Virtual Tape Library (VTL) |

ACSLS 8.4 |
The following legacy libraries are supported by ACSLS:
StorageTek 9310
StorageTek 9360
StorageTek L180
StorageTek L700
StorageTek L700e PTP
StorageTek L5500
ACSLS is still coded to support several earlier StorageTek libraries, such as the 4410s, 97xx, L20, L40, and L80 libraries. However, support for these libraries has not been tested for several years.
The following table translates drive types between applications. The Drive Type Name represents the drive type in cmd_proc and event log messages. The ACSAPI Drive Type Number is used in ACSLS software operations and ACSAPI client communications.
Note:
The library drive type for DLT and SDLT drives is in a different drive domain than Oracle StorageTek drives, and it overlays with the drive types of StorageTek drives. To avoid conflicts, it is incremented by 40 hexadecimal or 64 decimal when these drives are reported by Host/Library Interface libraries. The incremented or ”offset” drive type is reported in parentheses.
The format of the data written by Fibre-attached and Ethernet-attached drives is the same.

The following table lists the compatible tape media supported for each drive type.
Note:
* Legacy StorageTek media do not have a media domain on the label. They are reported as media domain 0 (zero).
* 3480 cartridges do not have a media type label. They are reported as media type1.
*** DLT cartridges do not have a media domain on the label. They are reported as media domain 1. SDLT cartridges with 7 character barcodes are also reported as media domain 1.
**** When a media type is reported as cleaning cartridge maybe, both data or cleaning cartridges can have this media type.
***** LTO-6 media types are reported as LTO-3.2T and LTO-3.2W in ACSLS 8.1. In ACSLS 8.2 and later releases, LTO-6 media types are reported as LTO-2.5T and LTO-2.5W. This was because the capacity of LTO-6 media changed before LTO-6 was announced.

The following table lists the compatible media for each drive type. Use these values as input to the media media_type and drive drive_type parameters on ACSLS commands.
An R/O identifies media types that are read-only by the specified drive type.
