Supported Tape Devices and Media Changers
TruCluster Server Version 5.1 supports the configuration of specific tape devices on a shared SCSI bus and on Fibre Channel. These devices will function
properly in a multi-initiator environment. On a SCSI bus, they will be disrupted by bus resets that occur during cluster membership change events. Backup
software must be explicitly capable of handling and recovering from such events and must utilize the cluster application availability facility to facilitate
highly available backup.
The following tape devices and media changers are supported on shared storage:
• TZ88
• TZ885 DLT Mini Library
• TZ887 DLT Mini Library
• TZ89
• TL881
• TL890 Mini Library Expansion Unit
• TL891 Mini Library
• TL892 Mini Library
• TL893 Automated Tape Library
• TL894 Automated Tape Library
• TL895 Automated Tape Library
• TL896 Automated Tape Library
• Compaq 20/40-GB DLT Tape Drive
• Compaq 40/80 GB DLT Tape Drive
• ESL9326D Enterprise Library
• 340654-001 Fibre Channel Tape Controller
• 152975-001 Fibre Channel Tape Controller II
Note: The TL881, TL890, TL891, TL892, TL893, TL894, TL895, TL896, and Compaq 20/40-GB DLT Tape Drive are supported with both the KZPSA and
KZPBA-CB adapters. All other tape device and media changer support is provided with KZPSA adapters only.
Compaq 40/80 GB DLT Tape Drive and ESL9326D Enterprise Library are supported with both the KZPSA and KZPBA-CB adapters. All other SCSI
attached tape device and media changer support is provided with KZPSA adapters only.
The TL891 Mini Library, TL895 Automated Tape Library and the ESL9326D Enterprise Library are also supported on a Fibre Channel storage bus
with the KGPSA-BC and KGPSA-CA adapter.
The Compaq Fibre Channel Tape Controller is a Fibre Channel-to-SCSI bridge that allows a differential SCSI tape device to communicate with
other devices on a Fibre Channel. Refer to Enterprise Backup Storage documentation for a list of tape devices supported on Fibre Channel tape
controllers.
