Configuring the SL4000 to ACSLS

Once the SL4000 components are operational, use one of the following ACSLS utilities to configure the SL4000 to ACSLS:

ACSLS uses the SCI interface (HTTPS communications, including authentication) to communicate with, and operate the SL4000 library.

Refer to the acsss_config and config utilities for details on how to specify connection parameters for various library types, including the SL4000.

Note:

  • Two or more ACSLS servers cannot be connected to an SL4000 library.

    Though ACSLS does not enforce any limits, connecting two or more servers to an SL4000 will result in database performance and cartridge management issues.

  • For proper functionality, ensure that the ACSLS server clock is in sync with the SL4000 internal clock, within a few minutes.

  • ACSLS SCI connection to an SL4000 library requires an SL4000 user credential with a user role at the User level. The SL4000 Administrator role can also be used for this credential.

Changing the SL4000 User Name and Password

If the SL4000 user name or password changes or expires, you must use the acs_rewallet.sh utility to update ACSLS authentication. See acs_rewallet.sh for more information.
