Supported Libraries

The following libraries are supported in this release.

NOTE: AIT is not currently supported as a pre-defined media type. At this time, an AIT library must be configured as an 8mm library.

In previous releases of VolServ, AML libraries with AIT-1 and/or AIT-2 drives may have used either one of the following DAS/AMU drive type designators:

DC = AIT-1 and/or AIT-2

DM = AIT-1 and/or AIT-2

In VolServ release 5.1, due to a change in the AMU software, AML libraries with AIT-1 and/or AIT-2 drives now use the following DAS/AMU drive type designators:

DC = AIT-3

DM = AIT-1 and/or AIT-2
