Supported Internet Protocols

The library supports the following Internet protocols:
v IPv4
v IPv6
To learn more about IPv4, visit http://www.iana.org/. To learn more about IPv6,

SNMP Messaging

Occasionally, the library may encounter a situation that you want to know about,
such as an open magazine or a fault that causes the library to stop. The library
provides a standard TCP/IP protocol called Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) to send alerts about conditions (such as need for operator intervention)
over a TCP/IP LAN network to an SNMP monitoring station. These alerts are
called SNMP traps. Using the information supplied in each SNMP trap, the
monitoring station (together with customer-supplied software) can alert operations
personnel of possible problems or operator interventions that occur.
In summary, each trap provides the following information:
v Product Identification such as product name, description, manufacturer, model
v Product Status such as the severity of the trap, status (current and previous) and
v Library State (physical device status) such as identification and status of devices
v Drive Status such as the identification of each drive in the library, firmware
v Trap Definitions such as library status change, open magazine, I/O accessed,

Maximum Library Storage Capacity and Data Transfer Rate

Maximum library storage capacity and maximum data transfer rates are as follows:

supply, controller, magazine status, drive count, cartridge slot count, and I/O
station count. Also included would be certain library statistics, and where
appropriate, the fault FSC (fault symptom code) including the severity and

v 4 Gb/s Fibre Channel
v 3 Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) - dual port
v 3 Gb/s SAS - single port
v Ultra160 SCSI LVD (depending on drive; single-ended (SE) is not
recommended as it will severely degrade performance)
