1 Overview and System Requirements for Mid-Range Library Media Manager (MLMM) This section contains these topics: Product Overview 1-1 MLMM Connection Configuration Overview Workstation Hardware and Software Requirements Product Overview Mid-Range Library Media Manager (MLMM) is a product that allows SL500 tape libraries and LTO Gen 3 (M8504) Fibre Channel tape drives to run unattended labeled backups and restores, and it allows manual interaction with a graphical user interface (GUI). It can communicate with an Integrity NonStop NS-series system via TCP/IP. With MLMM, you can schedule backups, label tape cartridges, import or export (enter and eject) tape cartridges to and from the tape library, and load or unload tape drives. The Mid-Range Library Media Manager software requires HP NonStop labeled tape cartridges. In addition to being labeled magnetically, each tape cartridge must have a special external label that displays the volume ID in both a standard OCR format and a bar code. 1-2 1-4 System Software Requirements 1-4 Note. Mid-Range Library Media Manager supports SL500 tape libraries that have a storage capacity of a 170 media slots or fewer. 1-1

Overview and System Requirements for Mid-Range Library Media Manager (MLMM) MLMM Connection Configuration Overview MLMM Connection Configuration Overview In order for the MLMM software to control the tape library, a tape library control path must be configured from the NonStop system to the tape library. The system controls the movements of the tape library s robotic arm. HP Integrity NonStop NS-Series Systems The tape library control path can be configured to run on a Fibre Channel ServerNet adapter (FCSA) on an Integrity NonStop NS-series server. Example: SCF> ADD SCSI $M8521, SENDTO STORAGE, PRIMARYLOCATION (110,2,2), PRIMARYSAC 2, LUN 0, PRIMARYPORT 1234567891234567 1-2

Overview and System Requirements for Mid-Range Library Media Manager (MLMM) Control Path and Data Path Configuration Control Path and Data Path Configuration Figure 1-1. Mid-Range Library Media Manager Configuration With SL500 Tape Library The Mid-Range Library Media Manager solution consists of a Fiber control path, plugged into an FCSA and then directly to the tape library. The Control path is the path responsible for tape cartridge movement and library control. The Data path is for tape drives. The Data path is connected to an FCSA. The MLMM GUI interface runs on a PC and uses TCP/IP to communicate with the NonStop system. Commands sent from the MLMM GUI via TCP/IP are intercepted by the Mid-Range Library Media Manager process running on the NonStop system. The process then sends the commands via the control path to the tape library. 1-3

Overview and System Requirements for Mid-Range Library Media Manager (MLMM) Workstation Hardware and Software Requirements Workstation Hardware and Software Requirements The workstation must have this hardware and software: Windows 2000, Windows XP Professional, or later Internet Explorer 5.0 or later Transaction Control Protocol / Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) 128-megabyte RAM when running Windows XP Professional CD-ROM drive 15-inch or larger SVGA monitor 800 by 600 resolution (minimum) 16-bit high color (for best picture quality) System Software Requirements The NonStop NS-series system must have this software: H06.04 or later RVU for the SL500 tape library NonStop TCP/IP to establish a connection between the MLMM GUI, MLMM server, and MLMM clients Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) File Transfer Protocol (FTP) For more information, refer to the SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem. 1-4

2 MLMM Software Installation for the NonStop NS-Series Server and Client This section contains these topics: Installation of the Server MLMM 2-1 Installation of the Client MLMM 2-7 Installation of the Server MLMM Overview of the Installation Process The installation process of Mid-Range Library Media Manager (MLMM) consists of: Installing the MLMM software Transferring files via FTP Configuring the MLMM server, and the MLMM GUI to establish communication between the selected NonStop NS-series system and the tape library The tape drives can be configured with an Integrity NonStop NS-series system. In the SL500 tape library, the maximum number of M8504 tape drives that can be configured using Mid-Range Library Media Manager is 14. 2-1

MLMM Software Installation for the NonStop NS-Series Server and Client Installation of the Client MLMM Installation of the Client MLMM Overview of the Client The client software is installed on a second NonStop system and is designed to communicate with another NonStop system, which is the host to the tape library device. The server controls the robot on the tape library. The client sends its requests to the server, and the server then sends the request to the tape library. The client can communicate with the tape library only through the NonStop system. Installing the MLMM Client Note. You must configure the Server before the Client. The installation process for Mid-Range Library Media Manager (MLMM) consists of installing the software, transferring files, and configuring the MLMM client to communicate with the selected host. The tape drives can be configured with a NonStop NS-series system. In the SL500 tape library, a maximum of 14 M8504 tape drives can be configured. 2-7

Configuring the MLMM Server on the NonStop System Running the Server Processes on the NonStop System Running the Server Processes on the NonStop System Once MLMM has been configured on the NonStop NS-series system, the TCP/IP process name PARAM needs to be set and the process executed before connecting to the robot using the GUI. Note. Use the appropriate home terminal process for your system. Server files and client files need to be run by using SUPER.GROUP access. 1. Create an obey file to run the MLMM server as shown in Figure 3-26. Figure 3-26. OBEY_GO 2. Type OBEY STATUS to see if the MLMM processes have started. Figure 3-27 shows the files and processes that are running. 3. Press Enter. 3-27
