ACSLS Manager™ software

newplayer

ACSLS Manager™ software allows you to implement a strategic, centralized library management solution for easier administration, increased utilization and a lower cost of ownership. It functions as a central service provider for StorageTek library operations in heterogeneous environments. It allows you to collapse disparate, application-dedicated libraries to one centralized library or string of libraries accessed via a single point of control.
Applications

Tape library management
ACSLS Manager software can act as the central library service provider for one or several libraries, allowing you to manage library resources from a single location.
Benefits
[url=http://www.storagetek.com/products/product_page62.html#top]
Centralize storage
ACSLS Manager software enables a centralized storage operations model that allows you to manage more with less.
Reduce costs
Library resource sharing reduces capital equipment, maintenance and operating costs while simplifying library management.
Increase availability
ACSLS Manager software helps you keep your business up and running. The ACSLS High Availability solution goes even further, providing dual-server, fault-tolerant protection.
Prevent downtime
The ACSLS High Availability solution provides serviceability and redundancy features to minimize scheduled and unscheduled downtime.
Protect your investments
A highly flexible client/server architecture supports your legacy systems to protect capital investments in libraries, drives and software applications.
Features

Standard features:
Rich management capabilities
Fully optimize your libraries with advanced features like auditing, reporting, event-log recording, querying, issuing service requests and automated drive cleaning.
Robust cartridge and volume support
Cartridges that cannot be found in the library due to ejection or absence are marked absent rather than being deleted. These cartridges are easily reactivated.
Cartridge exchange support
ACSLS Manager software uses the pass-through port feature of StorageTek tape libraries. This enables the libraries to exchange cartridges between Library Storage Modules.
Access control
Administrators can selectively limit client access to ACSLS Manager software commands through passwords and permissions. The ACSLS server itself can be protected behind a firewall.
Dynamic resource management
The media pool feature allows you to assign each application or user its own pool of tapes to manage.
Options:
Library Attach software
enables ACSLS Manager software to manage applications running in Windows environments. It uses a TCP/IP network to provide a seamless connection between Windows backup applications and ACSLS Manager software.
MVS Client System Component (MVS/CSC) software
enables ACSLS Manager software to manage applications running in MVS environments. It allows MVS and non-MVS clients to share library access.
RMLS Client System Component (RMLS/CSC) software
enables ACSLS Manager software to manage applications running in AS/400 environments. It expands AS/400 connectivity to the StorageTek tape library product line.
