ADIC/GRAU DAS and STK ACS Libraries

The STK ACS Library Device

• Follow the same steps for creating drives as in the indirect library access configuration, but in Advanced Options, make sure to turn off the Force Direct Library Access feature. By default, this feature is on.

 

Using Data Protector to Access the STK ACS Library

 

Once you have configured your environment and installed the ACS

 

Media Agent on the systems that will access the library robotics, you are

 

ready to use the Data Protector GUI to access the media in the STK ACS

 

library. The following sections provide instructions on using Data

 

Protector with the STK integration.

 

 

NOTE

Data Protector allows you to connect directly to the ACS Library Server

 

host and perform some management tasks.

 

To connect to the ACS Library Server host, choose Actions, Connect

 

to ACSLM from the Library Management window.

 

This action performs a remsh command to the ACSLS host and starts

 

cmd_proc. If you want to change the default settings for this action,

 

change the ACSLMHOST option in the global options file.

 

Searching for Media

 

 

Use this function to locate a specific medium without having to browse

 

the entire list of media. Data Protector locates media by searching

 

through Medium Labels, then Medium Locations, and finally Medium

 

IDs.

 

1. In the HP OpenView Storage Data Protector Manager, switch to

 

the Devices & Media context.

 

2. To search for media in a media pool, select the Media item.

 

To search for media in a library, select the Devices item.

 

3. In the Edit menu, click Find. The Find dialog box appears.

 

Use the appropriate search method to search for media.
