 Overview  
The IBM 7337 Digital Linear Tape Library Model 360 is an automated tape library incorporating DLT8000 Tape Drives and attaching to RS/6000 and RS/6000 SP servers supporting AIX(TM) with a LVD Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI).

The 7337 Model 360 library can be configured with one to six IBM DLT8000 tape drives. Multiple drives offer enhanced functions such as faster transfer of data, simultaneous backup, concurrent read/write operations, and fault tolerance.

The IBM 7337 Model 360 is a stand-alone unit. With an optional feature, the 7337 Model 360 can be mounted in an industry-standard EIA-310-D 19-inch rack. The IBM 7337 Model 360 utilizes DLTtapeIV tape cartridges providing 40 GB native capacity and up to 80 GB with 2:1 hardware data compression, giving the 7337 Model 360 typical storage capacities of up to 2.4 TB and 4.8 TB (with 2:1 compression). The 7337 Model 360 has a per drive native data rate up to 6 MB per second and up to 12 MB per second with 2:1 compression. A bar code reader is included.

The IBM 7337 DLT8000 Digital Linear Tape Library can be used for save/restore, program distribution, migration, data interchange, automatic migration of data between disk storage and tape, and mass storage for data archive. Storage and tape management for the 7337 Model 360 is provided by software such as Tivoli Storage Manager and other industry-leading compatible software offerings.

Highlights

  • Supports from one to six industry-standard DLT 8000 drives, and between 15 and 60 storage slots

  • Rack mounted (14 EIUs) or floor-standing automated tape storage
  • Up to 2.4 TB of fast, automated and reliable data storage (4.8 TB of data compressed 2:1) at a 36 MB/sec data transfer rate with six drives in operation (72 MB/sec with 2:1 compression)
  • Broad-based independent software vendor (ISV) support
  • Cartridge handler and bar code reader standard
  • Physically lockable door and front-panel LCD display
  • Ultra2/Wide, Low Voltage Differential (LVD) interface
