Scalar 100 User’s Guide 3
Description
The Scalar 100 automates the retrieval, storage, and control of tape cartridges. It is designed for use in a
standard office environment, with a fully finished appearance, or as a rackmounted unit.
The library supports many different drive types and, depending on the type of drive, can contain up to eight
drives. There is a mailbox on the front door for inserting and removing tapes. In addition, the operator panel
on the front of the library allows you to fully control and configure your library.
There are two types of Scalar 100 libraries available: Library Control Path and Drive Control Path. Library
Control Path libraries connect the host to the library through a SCSI connection. Drive Control Path libraries
connect the host directly to the drive. Refer to
Host Attachment on page 11 for more information on Library
Control Path and Drive Control Path libraries.
For specific information about your library, including data capacity and tape cartridge capacity, refer to
Specifications on page 111.
