METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ACCESSING TAPE DEVICES IN A COMPUTER SYSTEM
摘要
Emulation of a small computer system interface (SCSI) library storage is provided in a virtual data storage subsystem having an automated tape library. This allows the ability to access or store a logical volume of data. Medium changer commands as used in SCSI and other open system interfaces are mapped to library function commands as commonly used in an enterprise server environment. This allows full transparent usage of virtual tape storage available in the enterprise server environment as open system storage.
