Hi
Yes, you can do this with ACSLS. The L180 doesnt have it's own library
manager. This is why ACSLS is required to share the library. If your going
to dedicate 2 drives to each server, then ACSLS is all you need. If you
want to share the drives dynamically, you also need to install Gresham
EDT-DistribuTape on all TSM servers that will use the L180
library(including Storage Agents).
EDT-DistribuTape will also be needed if you want to use LAN-free
functionality with the L180.
We're not doing this with a L180, but we are doing it with the L700E and
the 9310 libraries. ACSLS is a very good library manager, with a single UI
and a very stable functionality.
Best Regards

Subject: Shared Storagetek L180 library
I would like to share a STK L180 library with 6 SCSI drives among
three independent TSM servers. No drive sharing required, just
want two drives per TSM server. It appears that the L180 has a
single control path. Can I get this done with ACSLS? Is anyone
doing something like this? Any advice is welcome. Thanks.
