Advanced Reporting Features
The Advanced Reporting license provides the following library features:
Control Path Failover (CPF) - Provides support for configuring the HP
LTO-5 Fibre Channel (FC) drive for control path failover. To configure a
control path failover drive, you must also have an Advanced Reporting
license. When control path failover is used, one drive is assigned as the
primary control path and another drive as the control path failover
(secondary) drive. The control path failover drive is used whenever the
primary control path drive fails or is inoperable.
Reports - Listed below are Advanced Reporting report names. You can
view, configure, send via e-mail, and save and reuse report
configurations as templates. In addition, you can automatically e-mail
any of the reports to designated recipients at specified, scheduled times.
• Drive Resource Utilization Report - Provides tape drive usage
information, showing you which tape drives are working at
optimum capacity and which are under-utilized. This report can help
you allocate your tape drive resources properly.
• Media Integrity Analysis Report - Provides TapeAlert count for various
combinations of tape drives, tape cartridges, and TapeAlert flags.
This report can help you determine if a problem is due to a specific
tape drive or tape cartridge.
Logs - Listed below are available logs:
• Media Security Log - Lists media that has been removed from the
library.
• Media Usage Log - Lists media usage information regarding capacity,
and read and write errors for media ever mounted in a drive.-
