Tape Drives and Tape Libraries Supported by HPSS
Tape Drives and Tape Libraries Supported by HPSS
- HPSS supports tape technologies and libraries from IBM, Oracle’s Sun StorageTek, Quantum, Qualstar, and Spectra Logic that are listed as current products by these companies and are supported by standard AIX and Red Hat Enterprise Linux device drivers and that use an ANSI-standard six-character tape label.
- HPSS software supports various combinations of these drives and libraries, as long as such combinations are supported by the hardware vendor.
- It may be necessary to upgrade to the current release of HPSS to obtain support for newer combinations of drives and libraries.
- We are open to supporting other tape and library products by special bid.
