Embedded Root Switch in Tape Libraries

Another root switch application is to embed a switch attached to multiple tape drives and tape library

controllers into a system.

Benefits include:

• Delivers maximum performance and RAS capabilities possible.

• Improved isolation and diagnostics down to the drive level. Enables tape drive/port level fault

isolation repair without taking the entire tape library offline.

• Up to a 350% performance improvement over shared loop-based architectures.

Figure 1-3 depicts a sample tape library consolidation configuration.
