helps allow the 3494 to grow as your business grows. Flexible
configuration choices start at a single frame with up to two tape drives
and up to 240 tape cartridges. Optional drive, storage, and Virtual Tape
Server units may be added as needed, to create an automated tape library
with up to 76 physical tape drives, 512 virtual tape drives, or up to
6,240 tape cartridges. Choices in tape drives for the 3494 can be
the IBM TotalStorage Enterprise Tape Drive 3592,
the IBM TotalStorage Enterprise Tape Drive 3590,
or the IBM 3490E. Different tape drives can be installed in different
frames in the same 3494 library. The 3494 supports a variety of IBM
and Open Systems hosts including IBM eServer zSeries, S/390*,
IBM eServer pSeries, RS/6000*, IBM eServer iSeries, AS/400*,
Sun**, HP, and Intel-compatible servers running Microsoft Windows** NT,
2000, and 2003. Also available are unique optional models such as
the IBM TotalStorage Enterprise High Availability Tape Frames (HA1
Frames) and the IBM TotalStorage Virtual Tape Server (VTS). The HA1

IBM TotalStorage Master Console Features

The following features #2713, #2714, and #2715 provide connection to
an IBM TotalStorage Master Console (TSMC) to enable enhanced remote
support to improve availability. The TSMC can remotely monitor each
attached device to determine if it is working properly and report any
error alerts for the early detection of problems. Use of the TSMC may
expedite microcode updates, reduce service times, and enhance local
service. One of these features must be ordered on any new 3494 Tape
Library Model L12, or L22 instead of the Remote Support features (#2710,
#2711, or #2712). They are recommended on every installed 3494 Tape
Library. Any 3494 VTS, 3590 Model A60, or 3592 Model J70 in a 3494
library should also attach to the IBM TotalStorage Master Console. The
same master console for service may be shared between the following
units:

3494 Model AX0, B10, B18, B20, HA1, L10, L12, L14, or L22

VTC in a 3494 Model CX1

3590 Model A60

3592 Model J70

To connect a unit to an IBM TotalStorage Master Console, one of the
following three features must be selected on the unit based on the number
of units attached to that master console facility in the installation.

(#2713) Master Console For Service

This feature provides the IBM TotalStorage Master Console, an Ethernet
hub and a cable and connectors for connection of one of the above units
to an IBM supplied modem to enable remote enhanced service. This feature
should be specified on the first unit in an installation connected to a
master console facility. The Ethernet hub provides 14 additional
connections for cables supplied with feature #2714 or #2715.

Minimum: One of feature #2713, #2714, or #2715 is required on all
new orders of a 3494 Model L12 or L22.

Maximum: One of #2713, #2714, or #2715. A maximum of one of feature
#2714 may be connected to the Master Console For Service feature #2713.

Plant or field installable.

(#2714) Console Expansion

This feature provides an attachment cable for connection of one of the
above units, and an Ethernet hub for expanding the number of units that
can be attached to the Master Console For Service (#2713). Up to 14
additional connections are provided by this feature for connection of
#2715 or another #2714.

Minimum: One of feature #2713, #2714, or #2715 is required on all
new orders of a 3494 Model L12 or L22.

Maximum: One of #2713, #2714, or #2715. A maximum of one other
Console Expansion (#2714) may be connected to the Ethernet hub provided
by this feature #2714. A maximum of two of feature #2714 may be included
in a single master console facility (providing a total maximum of 43 unit
connections).

Plant or field installable.

(#2715) Console Attachment

This feature provides a cable to attach a unit to the Ethernet hub
provided by the Master Console For Service (#2713) or the Console
Expansion (#2714). A maximum of 40 of feature #2715 may be included in a
single master console facility.

Minimum: One of feature #2713, #2714, or #2715 is required on all
new orders of a 3494 Model L12 or L22.

Maximum: One of #2713, #2714, or #2715.
