Description

The TS3200 Tape Library is an external stand-alone or rack-mountable unit and contains a LTO Ultrium tape drive that is designed for the heavy demands of backup tape storage.

The TS3200 Tape Library capacity is 44 tape data cartridges, providing a media physical capacity of up to 17.6 TB (35.2 TB with 2:1 compression) data storage per unit. It is supported for LVD Small Computer

Systems Interface (SCSI) or Fibre Channel attachment

IBM System p and p5, IBM System i and i5, IBM System z and z9 products, xSeries, HP, Sun, UNIX, Linux, and

Windows servers.

The TS3200 Tape Library offers the following significant improvements over the existing 3582 Tape Library:

•

Increased cartridge capacity

—

The TS3200 is configured to hold four removable magazines, providing 44 data cartridges, a 3-slot I/O station, and one dedicated cleaning cartridge slot.

•

Standard bar code reader

—

With the addition of the standard bar code reader, you will be able to operate the TS3200 as a random access tape library with labeled media.

Labeled media can be ordered as feature number 8305 at time of purchase, via the 3589

LTO Ultrium media machine type, or through IBM

Media at 888-IBM-MEDIA (426-6334).

Refer to the

Supplies

section, for additional information.

•

Dedicated mail slots

—

Standard on the TS3200, a three-cartridge mail slot on the lower-left cartridge magazine is designed to allow for continuous library operation during import/export of data cartridges.

•

Removable cartridge magazines

—

The TS3200 has four removable magazines, which help allow for quick population of the tape library, as well as ease of storage for media. You may order additional right-side magazines as an optional feature number.

•

Customer Replacement Units

—

Drives, power supply, and cartridge magazines are customer replacement parts.

The new TS3200 Tape Library incorporates the IBM LTO

Ultrium 3 Tape Drive. The IBM LTO Ultrium 3 Tape Drive is the third-generation LTO Ultrium Tape Drive in the IBM

System Storage LTO Ultrium family of products.

The

Ultrium 3 Tape Drive offers the following significant improvements over the Ultrium 2 Tape Drive:

•

Increased performance

—

Maximum tape drive throughput data rate performance is more than doubled, to up to 80 MB/sec native data transfer rate.

Data tracks are now written 16 at a time. IBM Ultrium

3 Tape Drives can read and write, at eight data tracks at a time, LTO Ultrium 2 Data Cartridges at Ultrium 2 capacities and rates and read LTO Ultrium 1 Data

Cartridges at Ultrium 1 capacities with improved rates.

Note:

Although the TS3200 Tape Library provides the capability for excellent tape performance, other components of the system may limit the actual

performance achieved.

Also, whereas the compression technology used in the tape drive can typically double the amount of data that can be stored on the media, the actual degree of compression achieved is highly sensitive to the characteristics of the data being compressed.

•

Larger capacity

—

With the use of the IBM

TotalStorage 400 GB Data Cartridge, tape cartridge physical capacity is doubled over the Ultrium 2 Data

Cartridge to up to 400 GB native physical capacity

(800 GB with 2:1 compression).

This is achieved by increasing the linear density, the number of tape tracks, and the media length.

The tape itself is an advanced metal particle tape developed to help provide durability and capacity.

•

Ultrium 3 WORM Cartridge

—

The IBM TotalStorage

Ultrium 3 400 GB WORM cartridges are supported with

IBM Ultrium 3 Tape Drives.

•

Ultrium 2 cartridge compatibility

—

The Ultrium 3 Tape

Drive can read and write on Ultrium 2 cartridges.

•

SCSI Ultra160 LVD attachment

—

The TS3200 Tape

Library with feature number 8043 comes with a SCSI

Ultra160 LVD attachment, for connection to a wide spectrum of open system servers. They are supported on AIX



, OS/400



, i5/OS



, Sun Solaris, HP-UX,

Microsoft



Windows 2000, Windows 2003, Linux, and other open systems.

•

Fibre Channel attachment

—

The TS3200 Tape Library with feature number 8044 comes with native switched fabric 4 Gbps Fibre Channel attachment.

They are supported on AIX, OS/400, Sun Solaris, HP-UX,

Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows 2003, Linux, and other open systems.

•

New dual-stage, 16-channel head actuator

—

The actuator is designed to provide precision head alignment to help support higher track density and improved data integrity.

•

New independent tape loader and threader motors and positive pin retention

—

These are designed to help improve the reliability of loading and unloading a cartridge, and to retain the pin even if tension is dropped.

An independent loader motor coupled with the positive pin retention is designed to thread the tape with a higher level of reliability.

•

Dynamic amplitude asymmetry compensation

—

This is designed to optimize readback signals for linear readback response from magneto resistive read head transducers.

•

Larger internal data buffer

—

There is a 128 MB internal data buffer in the Ultrium 3 Tape Drive as compared to a 64 MB internal data buffer in the

Ultrium 2 Tape Drive.

•

Highly integrated electronics using IBM-engineered copper technology

—

Helping to provide a more reliable drive, it is designed to reduce the total number of components in the drive, lower chip temperatures, and reduce power requirements. The third-generation drive electronics are also designed to provide

“on-the-fly” error correction capability for soft errors in the memory arrays in data and control paths.

AG06-0325 -2-

•

Graceful dynamic braking

—

In the event of power failure, reel motors are designed to maintain tension and gradually decelerate instead of stopping abruptly.

This capability helps reduce tape breakage, stretching, or loose tape wraps during a sudden power-down.

Proven IBM LTO Ultrium features enhanced in IBM LTO

Ultrium 3 Tape Drive include:

•

Servo and track layout technology

—

There are 704 data tracks in Ultrium 3 versus 512 data tracks in

Ultrium 2. The high-bandwidth servo system features a low-mass servo to help more effectively track servo bands and improve data throughput with damaged

media in less-than-optimal shock and vibe

environments.

•

Surface Control Guiding Mechanism

—

IBM

′ s patented

Surface Control Guiding Mechanism is designed to guide the tape along the tape path in the IBM

Ultrium 3 Tape Drive. This method uses the surface of the tape, rather than the edges, to control tape motion. This helps reduce tape damage (especially to the edges of the tape) and tape debris, which comes from the damaged edges and can accumulate in the head area.

•

Magneto Resistive (MR) head design

—

Use of flat lap head technology in MR heads for Ultrium 3 helps minimize contact, debris accumulation, and wear on the tape as it moves over the read/write heads.

•

Digital speed matching

—

The Ultrium 3 Tape Drive is designed to perform dynamic speed matching (at one of five speeds, 40, 50, 60, 70, or 80 MB/sec) to adjust the drive

′ s native data rate as closely as possible to the net host data rate (after data compressibility has been factored out). This helps reduce the number of backhitch repositions and improve throughput performance.

Speed matching on Ultrium 3 ranges from 40 to 80 MB/sec versus 17.5 to 35 MB/sec on

Ultrium 2.

•

Robust drive components optimized for automation environments

—

The drive was designed using some of the most robust components available, such as: (1) all metal clutch, (2) steel ball bearings in loader, (3) robust leader block design, and (4) single circuit card to help enhance reliability and prolong the life of the drive.

•

Power management

—

The Ultrium 3 Tape Drive power management function is designed to control the drive electronics to be either completely turned off or to be in a low-power mode when the circuit functions are not needed for drive operation.

•

Adaptive read equalization

—

The drive is designed to automatically compensate for dynamic changes in readback signal response.

•

Separate writing of multiple filemarks

—

Separate writing of multiple filemarks is designed to cause any write command of two or more filemarks to cause a separate data set to be written containing all filemarks after the first. This feature has two advantages: first, it helps improve performance if a subsequent append overwrites somewhere after the first filemark; second, write of multiple filemarks typically indicates a point where an append operation might occur after the first of these filemarks. This change helps prevent having to rewrite datasets containing customer data and the first filemark if such an append occurs.

•

LTO Data Compression (LTO-DC)

—

The Ultrium 3 uses

LTO-DC, an implementation of a Lempel-ZV data compression algorithm.

LTO-DC is an extension of

Adaptive Lossless Data Compression (ALDC) and an improvement over previous IBM lossless compression algorithms.

IBM

′ s patented “Scheme-Swapping” compression is designed to look ahead at incoming data, and determine the most efficient storage method

(either ALDC or pass-thru mode) to help provide optimal data compression and increased data throughput.

•

LTO Cartridge Memory (LTO-CM)

—

Contained within the LTO Ultrium data cartridge is the LTO-CM, which is a passive, contactless silicon storage device that is physically a part of the cartridge. The LTO-CM is used to hold information about that specific cartridge, the media in the cartridge, and the data on the media. The storage capacity of the LTO-CM is 4,096 bytes.

Communication between the drive and the LTO-CM is via a low-level RF field transmitted by the drive to the cartridge.

•

Statistical Analysis and Reporting System (SARS)

—

The Ultrium 3 Tape Drive uses SARS to help isolate failures between media and hardware. The SARS uses the cartridge performance history saved in the CM module and the drive performance history kept in the drive flash EEPROM to help determine the more likely cause of failure. SARS can cause the drive to request a cleaner tape, to mark the media as degraded, and to indicate that the hardware has degraded.

With support for LTO Ultrium-format tape data cartridges, the TS3200 Tape Library provides an excellent migration path from digital linear tape (DLT or SDLT), 1/4-inch,

4mm, or 8mm tape drives.

In addition to LTO Ultrium 3 drive features, the TS3200 is designed to provide:

•

IBM

′ s patented Multi-Path Architecture for single or multiserver attachment of homogeneous or heterogeneous systems or applications

•

Optional path failover function for both control paths and data paths

•

Standard bar code reader and remote management unit

•

Stand-alone free-standing library or with optional rack mounting in an industry-standard 19-inch rack

The TS3200 Tape Library is suitable for use in network attached storage implementations, such as backups and mass storage archives where multiterabyte capacities are required. Storage and tape management for the TS3200 is provided by software such as Tivoli



Storage Manager and other compatible software offerings.

The TS3200 is designed for stand-alone operation, but an optional rack-mounting kit allows installation into an

ANSI/EIA standard 19-inch rack.

If you require extra redundancy in your storage operations, an additional DC power supply option is available.

The IBM LTO Ultrium 3 Tape Drive supports the Ultrium

400 GB Data Cartridge, designed for increased tape speeds and high-density data recording.

Multi-Path support

The patented Multi-Path feature of the TS3200 Tape

Library supports sharing of the library robotics.

This is accomplished by partitioning the library into multiple logical libraries, and providing each logical library its own separate and distinct drives, storage slots, and control paths. You can partition the library into as many logical libraries as there are drives in the library. Each logical library must contain at least one drive.

-3AG06-0325

Note:

This type of partitioning is designed to allow heterogeneous applications to share the library robotics independent of each other.

Cartridges under library control are not shared between logical libraries, nor allowed to be moved between logical libraries.

An example of heterogeneous sharing is a Microsoft slots of one logical library while a UNIX application uses the drive and slots of another logical library.

Path failover option

The TS3200 Tape Library may use path failover to help enhance availability. This optional feature is designed to provide automatic control path failover to a preconfigured redundant control path in the event that a host adapter or control path drive is lost without aborting the current job in progress.

Support is provided under various operating systems such as AIX, Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, and

Windows for Fibre Channel attachments when the IBM tape device driver is used.

Data path failover and load balancing supports native

Fibre Channel Ultrium 3 Tape Drives in the Tape Library using the IBM tape device driver for AIX, Linux, Solaris, and Windows. Data path failover is designed to provide a failover mechanism in the IBM device driver, which is designed to enable you to configure multiple redundant paths in a SAN environment.

In the event of a path or component failure, the failover mechanism is designed to automatically provide error recovery to retry the current operation using an alternate, preconfigured path without aborting the current job in progress.

This helps allow flexibility in SAN configuration, availability, and management.

When accessing a tape drive device that has been configured with alternate pathing across multiple host ports, the IBM device driver is designed to automatically select a path through the host bus adapter (HBA) that has the fewest open tape devices, and assign that path to the application.

This autonomic self-optimizing capability is called load balancing.

The dynamic load balancing support is designed to optimize resources for devices that have physical connections to multiple HBAs in the same machine.

The device driver is designed to dynamically track the usage on each HBA as applications open and close devices, and balance the number of applications using each HBA in the machine. This may help optimize

HBA resources and improve overall performance.

Further, data path failover is designed to provide autonomic self-healing capabilities similar to control path failover, and is designed to failover to an alternate data path in the event of a failure in the primary host-side path.

Data path failover and load balancing for Ultrium 3 Tape

Drives requires the optional path failover feature.

Ultrium 400 GB Data Cartridge

The tape cartridge physical capacity of the IBM

TotalStorage Ultrium 400 GB Data Cartridge has doubled over the IBM TotalStorage Ultrium 200 GB Data Cartridge to 400 GB native physical capacity (800 GB with 2:1 compression). IBM LTO Ultrium 3 Tape Drives can read and write Ultrium 2 data cartridges, and read only Ultrium

1 data cartridges. Ultrium 3 cartridges can be resident in the same TS3200 Tape Library with the Ultrium 2 and

Ultrium 1 data cartridges.

LTO Ultrium 400 GB data cartridges can be ordered using feature number 8305 at time of purchase or with machine type 3589, LTO Ultrium tape cartridges.

These cartridges have been designed to provide several enhancements over previous tape technologies. They are designed to work with tape drives that have increased tape speeds and high-density data recording.

The case is specially designed for use in automated libraries and

AG06-0325 -4is designed for repeated, unattended, trouble-free handling.

The tape itself is an advanced metal particle tape developed for durability and capacity.
