RE: Supportted VTL libraries by IBM

We use the DD2500's to not only backup IBM i to Virtual Tapes but an AIX lpar, running IBM Spectrum Protect (formerly TSM or Tivoli Storage Manager) uses it to back up all of our PC's and other servers to disk on the DD2500.

We have also tested quadstor with our backup software for linux and windows machines. i would also like to use it with ibm-i. how do you connect the ibm-i machine to the quadstor vtl. is there a way other than fibre-channel because we dont want to invest in the necessary controllers

I am in deep contact with quadstor support as we finalized the software for use with IBM i. Quick response time, the found all topics to keep an eye on (currently LTO5 emulation works best, IBM drives seem to have some special commands with IBM i).

The QuadStor thing looks interesting to me but I think it might be a
challenge to gather support for this approach in our environment,
