SNC 6101 User’s Guide 5

Description

This chapter provides a basic overview of the SNC 6101. It describes its main features, illustrates a typical

installation in a Scalar 100, identifies all user components available on its front panel, and lists important

mechanical and electrical specifications.

Overview

An integrated SNC 6101 enables Scalar 100 customers to use and manage their library in a storage area

network (SAN). When configured as a storage networking library, the Scalar 100 delivers the following

functionality:

• The ability to create separate data paths between heterogeneous hosts’ library components (drives

and/or media changer) using Scalar Firewall Manager (SFM). SFM allows the zoning of resources

so that hosts are restricted to seeing only storage they need. This endpoint security is standard in

ADIC storage networking libraries and is OS, HBA, and switch independent. Heterogeneous

support also enables multiple hosts with varying operating systems and backup applications to

access the same library.

• End-to-end path verification between the library and open system host interfaces enables

administrators to discover and remedy path failures before the library is needed for backup

applications.

• Drive performance optimization to keep drives streaming by pre-fetching data and overlapping

commands by means of an ADIC patent-pending technique.

• Serverless backup by means of an integrated Data Mover Module.
