Chapter 1 Library Description
Tape Drive and Media Analysis
Quantum PX720 User’s Guide 20
Tape Drive and Media Analysis
The PX720 library provides the ability to proactively monitor tape drive
and media health by continuously tracking dozens of critical tape drive
and media performance parameters. If a critical operating parameter
exceeds its predetermined threshold the PX720 remote management
pages (see
Tape Alert Page on page 103) automatically notify you,
allowing you to take corrective action.
In the event of a backup failure, the Tape Alert page can tell you what
happened and why, answering questions such as: Where is the problem?
Is it with the drive or media? Does the tape drive need to be returned for
service? Has the media reached end-of-life?
The Tape Alert page provides a comprehensive set of drive and media
statistics that facilitates preventative maintenance planning. With up-to-
the-minute statistics on drive and media usage you can avoid unplanned
downtime and proactively plan maintenance such as head cleaning or
media retirement.
