StorageTek L20

[phbeauverd]

I'am installing a library STK L20 on Linux Redhat 7.3 and Networker 6.1.2 build 340. The Cleaning cartridge seems to be in slot 1 instead of 19 (last slot), is it normal ? I had to change the autochanger settings !

Thank you in advance

We have a STK L40 which is the same library foot print. The Library has a special slot to hold the cleaning tape. See your user guide for where it's located.

We are considering some of StorageTek's libraries. Can you tell me what your experiences have been with these??

Thanks,

We are using one L40 and now a L20 as secondary library. Both are connected to Linux servers (Redhat 7.3) installed on Compaq proliant servers (ML370 and DL380). Both libraries have 2 SLDT drives. The L40 is working since july at great satisfaction. We are able to save up to 25 GB per hour using a gigabit connection for the server.
