Each library installation will require, (1) library system, (1) geographically specific power
cord, (1) SCSI cable for each DLT drive pair, and up to 26 pieces of media with bar code
labels for each MSL5026DLX. Multiple configurations will require additional pass-through
kits.
The minimum orderable configuration consists of a single library system (for instances
where customer already has the necessary SCSI cables, power cord, and media.
Installation services may also be ordered for customers who want to have a certified
Compaq Engineer perform an on-site library installation.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
High Availability and Hot Pluggable Drives
As data becomes more mission critical, and downtime becomes more costly, customers are requiring high availability features on tape automation
devices. The MSL5026DLX uses "hot pluggable" DLT drive carriers, allowing drives replacement and additional DLT drive to be added for capacity
expansion without interrupting backup and restore functions. These hot pluggable drive trays allow for easy scalability of performance, as well as provide
an easy upgrade path towards future DLT drive technologies.
NOTE: The MSL5026DLX accepts only library ready drives specifically modified for use in the MSL5026DLX library.
Proven Reliability
Using DLT tape drives, and proven library robotics with a rating of 1,000,000 load/unload cycles, the MSL5026DLX provides the necessary high reliability
for today's demanding environment.
DLT Technology
Digital Linear Tape uses a proven linear recording technology, a highly accurate tape guide system, and a read after write LZ correction system to provide
high-capacity, high reliability data backup and restoration. DLT has fast become the industry-standard secondary storage tape format for departmental
and enterprise backup. The Compaq 40/80 DLT drives used in the MSL5026DLX can read previous versions of DLT cartridges (DLT tape IV, DLT tape
IIIxt and DLT tape III).
Manageability
The MSL5026DLX library configurations are fully supported through Compaq Insight Manager 5.0, providing information to administrators for robotic
status, tape status changes and fault status. Compaq TSMC (tape storage management console) software provides diagnostics and easy firmware
upgrade capabilities.
Multi-unit modular Scalability
The MSL 5026DLX has the capability for multi-unit scalability; up to 7 libraries can be scaled together in a "virtual library". The first two modules are linked
using Passthrough Mechanism, which has the elevator mechanism for tape movement. Additional of subsequent modules requires the Pas through
extender (one for each additional module).

Novell NetWare v 4.5 and above
Tru64 UNIX v4.0G and 5.1
