IBM磁带库机械臂驱动

最近在写和IBM磁带库相关的程序，不知道如何用C++操作IBM磁带库的机械臂，请问有没有人知道这个怎么去写？

要调系统命令吧？

What operating system will your program be running on?
What device driver will be used as your changer driver?

To manage a tape library, the program needs to call open( ), ioctl( ), close( ) basically. The open( ) and close( ) are mostly same on all of operating system. The ioctl calls are very difference deponded on which device driver using. For example, you call SG_IO( ) to send the SCSI command to the library running with Linux generic driver -- sg on Linux. On Solaris, you can use USCSI( ) to issue SCSI command running with Solaris native passthru driver -- sgen. On HP-UX, you can use HP-UX native changer driver -- schgr or passthru driver -- spt to call its ioctls. On AIX, you have to call HBA API to send the commands.

If you want to use IBM changer drivers to handle IBM tape libraries, IBM provides a whole set of ioctl calls on AIX, Linux, Solaris, Windows and HP-UX.

If you are working for third party of changer driver like EMC Lus driver for IBM tape libraries, you need to contact with the third party vendor.

You still don't answer what tape changer driver you plan to run with.

The IBM Tape Device Driver Programming Reference is available at the following URL:

OK，我刚刚去看了下：

设备管理器中显示的介质名为： IBM 3581 LTO AutoLoader
在注册表SCSI下的子键为：      Changer&Ven_IBM&Prod_ULT3581-TA&Rw_I114
其GUID为：                          {CE5939AE-EBDE-11D0-B181-0000F8753EC4}\0000

不知道是不是你要的信息
