Simplify Tape Storage
TS4300 is based on an embedded, open-source software architecture to help speed deployment and simplify
management. Best-in-class error recovery and reporting, library health monitoring and alerting, and auto-recovery
features help to speed diagnostics and resolution. An automation drive interface significantly increases drive
communication speed for faster code updates and log downloads.
IBM offers diverse management software solutions for TS4300 to enhance the use of multipath architecture, as well as
the use of a single TS4300 library. The library software includes application programming interface (API) hooks that
enable easy integration of IBM software.
Management Software Options
IBM Spectrum ArchiveEnables users of LTO Ultrium 9, 8, and 7 tape library systems to inventory cartridges and read, write,
and search data on any cartridge
Enables writing metadata and tagging of individual files for easy and fast access to files stored on
cartridges
Enables users to create, manage, and optimize archives
Provides management of concurrent copies of content, plus active, inactive, and off-site content
Enhances data security while dramatically reducing the number of encryption keys to be managed
Simplifies encryption key management with an intuitive user interface for configuration and
management
Helps minimize the risk of loss or breach of sensitive information
