Adding a Library

Use the procedure in this section to add libraries to StorNext. StorNext’s 

Storage Manager (SNSM) component supports three library types: 

• SCSI: A SCSI or fibre channel-attached library. 
• Network (ACSLS or DAS): A network-attached library. There are 

two types of network-attached library: ACSLS or DAS. 

• Vault: A library that stores media moved from a robotic library. A 

vault library is used to only store media, and cannot be reconfigured 

after it has been designated as a vault.

When adding a library to StorNext, follow the instructions specific to 

your library type.
