Quantum and Esxi 4.1 tape library

Configuration:

-Esxi 4.1 Vsphere

-HP Proliant DL180 G6

-HP SC11Xe SCSI Adapter card

-Quantum Superloader 3 with one LTO3 drive

When the quantum tape library is connected to the serevr... see from esxi on this disc, but not robotic library.  So on Windows, I can have only a single drive for making backups and need to manually load a strip every day.

So I contacted the vmware support and they told me that automated libraries don't are not able to be connected and used on a server vm but they would open a feature request and hope to be compatible in the future... are they laughing at me?  Anyone able to get a taoe Robotics library working on a virtual server?  Some tips to make the esxi see the changer and the drive?

Thank you

In vSphere client, at the level of the host (i.e. selected host), go to Configuration, advanced.  If you host supports passthrough, you should then be able to provide the SCSI itself (as opposed to the unit) to a virtual machine single card so that she can then access it and all the attached devices, in the usual way.  Not that I've never tried

  • Driver for IBM TS3100 Tape library. for windows 2008R2 and DPM 2010

    I installed DPM 2010 in the edition of Windows 2008R2 STD. I am using the IBMTS3100 tape library. Windows detects the tape device but media changer appears as unknown medium changer. I cannot see the details of the driver for the medium changer and means 'no driver file is required or have been loaded for the device. When I try to update the driver, it says already installed the latest driver for the device.

    Now the question is DPM does not detect the slots in the tape library.

    I have installed Symantec Backu Exec in the same server and everything works fine.

    If anyone has the driver for the device please inform else we are go to Backupexec... :(

  • Nexus 5000 native FC disk array and tape library

    Is it possible to have servers to connect by FCoE to nexus 5000 switches as well as native berries FC of attached disk and tape library without requiring additional CF as the MDS 9000 switch? The reason why I ask, is that all the patterns I've seen on consolidated IO to this point show switches connected to the FC ports native on the nexus 5000 MDS. I thought that the Nexus 5000 would be able to replace the MDS attaching devices FCoE and native Fibre Channel devices. You see only such a diagram has me second guessing my initial thought.

    Yes, you can use FCoE and FC of Nexus 5000 to connect to networks. I tested and it works very well without any problems.

    FCoE, you have module FCoE in the bays and the appropriate license.

    Thank you

    Hello

    tape drives and the library are supported on ESX so are SCSI:

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=1016407&sliceId=1&docTypeID=DT_KB_1_1&dialogID=123216192&StateID=0%200%20131201707

    In any case the fiber channel strips and the library usually works well.

  • With the help of a fiber tape library channel on a VM

    Hello world

    asked if it is possible to use a tape library of channel of fiber as a device to a virtual machine running on an esx 3.5 host that has SAN connectivity; I know that you can map a phisycal fibre channel adapter on a virtual machine, but this means that it can be used by the VM only, if I'm not mistaken.

    This is a new subject to me so I am curious about all the options that I have and all restrictions, as well as i can decide what is the best thing to do.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    For ESX 3.x go to http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Virtualization/How-to-Attach-Local-Tape-Device-to-VMware-ESX-Host/

    With ESX 4, you can use PCI PASSTHROUGH option as well.

  • can photos and opening to share a library?

    Can photos and opening to share a library?

    I want to share so I can use photos to back up the library in iCloud, but want to do all my work photo still open... is this possible?

    No, I cannot open to open a library of Photos.   It is only one-way: migrate an Aperture to photo library.

    Once the photos or Photos you can send them to your Aperture library to edit using the command share > add to open "", if you want o send to open for editing.

  • Transfer iTunes and external HARD disk media library

    To build capacity on my 13-inch MacBook Pro (SSD) I want to transfer my music and files from the iTunes library on an external HARD drive. By following the online instructions I copied the iTunes folder of high level of my MBP on the external HARD drive and have chosen the new library (.itl) on the first reopening of iTunes. Everything seems fine but to verify music file information, it seems that the music files are always read in the MBP files. How do I order the new library to the remote disk copy of music files so that I can remove them safely from MBP. Thank you

    Move a library: quick response if you use preferences by default iTunes settings: copy the folder iTunes integer (and to ensure that all of its subfolders and files) intact at the other disk, hold down the option/Alt (shift on Windows) keys at the start of iTunes, and request select a library select iTunes Library.itl file in the copied folder. https://support.Apple.com/HT201596

  • Old photos have not been deleted, even if it's been more than 2 months and keep crashing the photo library in icloud.

    Earlier this year, I used the library to icloud to back up my photos. Everything worked well. After awhile, I deleted the photos and off synchronization from photo library. Today, I decided that I wanted to use again, so I turned it on. It seems to work fine but when I connect to my PC I have the chance to see the old photos have not been removed. They seem to be corrupt (there is an exclamation mark instead of a thumbnail) and I can not open them, instead the library hangs. It has been more than 2 months, I suppose that even if I forgot to delete some photos, they should be gone now. Is there a way to fix this?

    a few things

    1 - iCloud Photo is not a backup - it's a synchronization service - see FAQ-apples iCloud Photo library FAQ - Apple Support

    More precisely

    Do I need a backup?

    ICloud library stores all of your photos and original videos in iCloud, but we still recommend that track you return of copies of your library. You can upload your photos and videos to iCloud on your computer and store them in a separate library, transfer them to another computer with transfer of images or Photosor store them on a separate disk.

    2 - ICPL can be accessed through Safari - connect to iCloud.com can click on the picture and see what's there - look in the recently deleted album and see what's there

    3. we need to know the details - you have other devices using the same iCloud account?

  • Make sure that wire you all the inputs and outputs of your node library function call?

    This document says "make sure that wire you all the inputs and outputs of your node library function call.

    http://digital.NI.com/public.nsf/WebSearch/7253D2F0D91F68058625752F005AB672?OpenDocument&submitted&&...

    But all the terminals on the right side of the call library node considered "outputs" referred to in the foregoing statement?

    This same document continues to show the right way to allocate memory with this illustration and in the illustration, the right "outputs" are left without junctions.

    Am I right in assuming that the only terminals that count as outputs, those who use the code of the DLL (modify) as output?  If it is true, then all other terminals output associated with the values entered alone so don't really account as outputs, correct?

    In the parameter call-library configuration screen there is a "Constant" check box and the help that he wrote "indicates whether the parameter is a constant."  What is this box? for me in the setup of the DLL call

    Finally, assuming that a call from the DLL that is supposed to write in these five outputs, is it legitimate to use constants like this to book a space of memory for the output values?

    How about if local variables associated with the output terminals are used instead?

    Despite the linked document, it is necessary to connect the corresponding entry for simple scalar output parameters (for example a digital). LabVIEW automatically allocate memory for them. If you do not want the entries for all the output wire anyway, there should not be no difference between a constant and a local variable; I would use a constant to avoid useless local variables.

    For settings that are only entries, there is not need to connect the outlet side. It's a bit simplistic since all parameters are entered only and get one result (other than the return value), you pass a memory address and modify the content to this address, but LabVIEW manages this dereferencing pointer for you. If you want to really get into the details, learn more about pointers in C.

    The "Constant" check box acts as the qualifier "const" on a c function parameter. It tells the compiler that the function you are calling will not change this setting. If you call a function prototype includes a const parameter, then you must mark this as a constant parameter when you configure the call library function node. Otherwise, I wouldn't worry on this subject.

    Please suggest how to set up the same.

    Thank you

    Amit,

    We do not support direct damage attach FC tape library to the FI currently.

    It may be a CF or CF storage end switch.
