that can be configured as additional mailslots. To purchase the upgrade license, contact your HP
sales representative or visit the HP website: http://www.hp.com.
Use the RMI Configure: License Key screen to manage the license key.

.
After you order the upgrade license, you can access the additional slots immediately by generating
a temporary license key. The temporary key can only be enabled once and is valid for 30 days.
NOTE:
The temporary key is intended to provide instant access to the upgrade capabilities until you receive
the permanent key. The temporary key expires after 30 days. If you do not have a permanent license
key before the temporary key expires, you will lose access to the additional storage slots when the
temporary license key expires.
When you receive the permanent license key from HP, enter the key and press Submit. The permanent
license takes effect when the Library is rebooted. You may need to reboot the Library to enable the
additional slots.
Command View TL TapeAssure
HP StorageWorks Command View TL software provides a browser-based GUI for remote management
and monitoring of most HP libraries through a LAN. With Command View TL, you can view and
analyze the performance and health of the LTO-4 and LTO-5 tape drives and media in multiple HP
MSL2024, MSL4048, MSL8048, and MSL8096 Tape Libraries and 1/8 G2 Tape Autoloaders at
the same time. In addition, the information shown in TapeAssure is more extensive than that shown
in the RMI.
Command View TL software is installed on a management station. The management can also be used
to manage HP StorageWorks EML and ESL Tape Libraries. For best performance, the management
station should be in the same physical location and on the same IP subnet as the Library. Command
View TL software is available for download without charge from the HP website at http://www.hp.com/
support/cvtl.
For information on installing and using Command View TL, see the HP StorageWorks Interface Manager
and Command View TL User Guide, available from the HP website at http://www.hp.com/support/
cvtl.
Command View TL support is included in all Library firmware that supports LTO-5 tape drives. To find
and download the most up-to-date firmware revision, visit the HP website at http://www.hp.com/
