FEATURES AND BENEFITS

The Quantum Scalar i40 and i80 libraries are the easy-to-use tape libraries for the growing storage needs of small and medium-sized businesses, as well as remote office environments of larger enterprises. The Scalar i40 and i80 save time by simplifying everything from initial set-up and on-going management, to adding capacity over time. The Scalar i40 and i80 include Quantums iLayer software which provides best-inclass management and monitoring capabilities. iLayer software, shipped in over 30,000 Quantum Scalar libraries, typically reduces library management time by more than 50%. iLayers easy-to-use interface can reduce business expense because it does not require a dedicated full time technical staff member to keep the library up and running smoothly and reliably. iLayer includes proactive diagnostics, which has been shown to reduce service calls by 50%. Proactive diagnostics provide easy-to-understand messages with specific corrective actions, allowing users to avoid downtime and spend more time doing other things besides managing the tape environment. Keeping up with data growth is simplified with the Scalar i40 and i80 tape libraries. The COD (capacity-on-demand) scalability feature enables the librarys capacity to grow on demand with users datawithout disruption. Start with 25 slots and scale up to 40 slots with Scalar i40 (50 slots up to 80 slots for Scalar i80) as your requirements grow, with a software license onlyno hardware to purchase or installproviding market leading investment protection. To keep your sensitive data or proprietary corporate intellectual property safe and to meet the increasing government requirements for compliance, both the Scalar i40 and i80 support the US Federal government recommended encryption standard for the highest levels of security. Tape encryption ensures your data is protected even while being stored offsite. The Scalar i40 and i80 provide significant benefits over conventional entry-level tape automation products, including better investment protection and less time managing the tape environment. All this, with the confidence of knowing that over 30,000 Scalar libraries with iLayer software have shipped, makes the Scalar i40/i80 the intelligent choice.

Scalar 40/ 80

Media Integrity and Drive Utilization Reporting
TRACKS MEDIA INTEGRITY CROSS-INDEXES DRIVES AND MEDIA ALERTS PROTECTS ENTIRE MEDIA POOL PRESENTS DRIVE USAGE HISTORY

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

The Scalar i40/i80 are the first entry-level tape libraries in the industry to create a database that contains a full history of the activities associated with all of their drives and media. For each drive, a complete usage history is retained, including all load, unload, write, and read records. The Scalar i40/i80 also retain a full history of all alert events for every piece of media known to the library, even pieces of media currently in off-site storage. The database is designed to store years of data, enough to provide both event diagnostics and longterm trend analysis throughout the life of the library. The Scalar i40/ i80 Media Integrity Analysis and Drive Utilization reports give users a flexible, easy-to-use interface to create reports from this database. Media Integrity Analysis reports let users cross-index historical drive and media alert events to proactively identify media that should be replaced before it impacts backup. The Drive Utilization reporting lets users quickly and easily determine if drive resources are being fully utilized and if reallocating jobs or adding drives would decrease the backup window.
The Scalar i40/i80s Media Integrity Analysis reports give administrators an easy way to use trend data to evaluate and protect their media pool. The reports include the ability to query the history of every piece of media that has been in the library, including the ID of all drives it has been loaded in.
User selectable time intervals
~~ Embedded trend reports provide easy, automated analysis for media and drives ~~ Up to 34,000 media and drive-related events retained ~~ Media trend data includes tapes in off-site storage ~~ Query function shows history of every tape and drive for any period ~~ Drive load reports find under-utilized drives and indicate when reallocation or additional drives are needed
Alerts crossindexed to drive history

T E C H NI C A L S P E C I F I C ATION S
improve your backup roi Backup software and tape libraries have not been able to adequately evaluate the condition of removable media. And conventional libraries or backup applications do not have the ability to track and analyze drive usage patterns. The Scalar i40/i80s data gathering and trend analysis tools, however, let users substantially improve the overall effectiveness of their backup system and maximize their return on investment. Media Integrity Analysis reports let users cross-index drive and media error rates to proactively pinpoint issues within the media pool so that pieces of media are removed only when necessary. Managing the media pool more effectively reduces media failures and saves users time and money. Drive Utilization reports provide a snapshot of drive usage patterns over a specific period of time, helping users equalize wear, locate underutilized drives, and identify partitions or libraries that need additional drives. Distributing loads more equally among drives optimizes performance and prolongs their life, maximizing long term drive investment and reducing costly downtime.
As part of Quantums iLayer intelligent, management-based approach, Media Integrity Analysis and Drive Utilization reports leverage the librarys historical database of media and drive events to give users the information they need to more efficiently manage their backup processes. Reports are available through the library interface and can be exported in standard formats including spreadsheets or other analysis toolsletting users easily sort the information and identify the appropriate actions to make their backup more effective.
Media Analysis Protects Integrity
Media Integrity Analysis reports use ongoing trend data to evaluate and protect the integrity of the media pool, helping administrators improve overall backup reliability and reduce costs. These reports summarize and analyze alert events for all media known to the libraryeven media in off-site storage. Users can view specific classes of alert events, query drive history, and cross-index drive-media error data to identify media with unrecoverable errors, media that is nearing its end of life, or media that should be removed from the library.

Drive Utilization Reports Improve Reliability And Resource Allocation
Quantums Drive Utilization reports make it easy for administrators to compare drive usage trend data over specified time periods and to identify use patterns for all drives in the library or in a partition. This information can be used to adjust loading to equalize wear, to find underutilized drives, and to discover libraries or partitions that need additional drives. More than just monitoring, the Drive Utilization reports are planning and forecasting tools that help administrators plan budgets and rationalize hardware acquisition.
This Drive Utilization report example provides a 4 week history of data written and read to two drives in a partition. This graph suggests that reallocating jobs to the under-utilized drive could help equalize wear or that moving this drive to another partition could be a better use of resources.
