Understanding the VTL console interface

The VTL console interface consists of four main parts: a main menu, a left‐hand main window pane, a right‐hand main window pane, and a status bar at the bottom of the interface. The VTL main menu system (A below) lets you control the console and carry out the administrative functions it supports. The left hand pane of the VTL console interface represents the component objects of the VTL system as the branches of a tree (B and C below). It contains the following major branches:

■“Virtual Tape Library System” on page 24

■“SAN Clients” on page 25

■“Reports” on page 25

■“Physical Resources” on page 26.

Clicking on the icon for a VTL server (B below) opens the log‐in dialog.
