2Description

The Scalar i2000 library automates the retrieval, storage, and control of

cartridges. The cartridges are mounted and retrieved from tape drives

using a robotic assembly that is driven by application software from the

host without operator intervention.

The library can be installed on a solid or a raised floor. The library has a

standard 19-inch rack footprint and can be placed in a standard server

rack space. Access is from the access and service doors so the library can

be placed with either side against a wall, or between racks.

The library is designed for ease of installation, configuration, and field

upgrades. The minimum library configuration consists of one control

module. Up to seven expansion modules can be added to the control

module as storage and tape drive requirements change. The maximum

library can be configured to accommodate from 102 through 3,492 LTO or

from 100 through 2,915 SDLT cartridges, from 1 through 96 tape drives,

and from 1 through 8 Import/Export (I/E) stations. See figure 1 on

page 6.
