Connecting Tape Devices

Using HP OpenView OmniBack II and the NAS Backup Agent

If you purchased a tape library with your NAS server, your server has either
two single-port SCSI cards installed or one to two FC cards for tape
connections. The HP NAS 8000 supports the HP tape and tape library
products. For updated information about supported tape devices, please refer
to the HP NAS 8000 support web page (http://www.hp.com/support/
nas8000).
See the installation guide that came with the tape device for more
information, or the Tape Library Upgrade section in this user's guide.
HP OpenView OmniBack II is a backup solution that provides reliable data
protection and high accessibility for your data. OmniBack II offers
comprehensive backup and restore functionality specifically tailored for
enterprise-wide and distributed environments.
You can use OmniBack II version 4.0 or 4.1 on either a Windows NT or UNIX
system connected to your NAS server. Each tape drive requires an Omniback
II drive extension license. If all of the tape UNIX drive extension licenses are
assigned for your installation, additional UNIX drive extension licenses will be
required to add tape drives connected to the HP NAS 8000. For details about
OmniBack II licenses see the
OmniBack II Installation and Licensing Guide .
