for

an

example

of

a

storage

agent

using

a

typical

external

library

configuration.

Note:

You

can

use

the

StorageTek

LibraryStation

to

manage

the

environment

instead

of

ACSLS.

However,

LibraryStation

is

required

when

you

are

using

a

z/OS

data

manager

server.

Complete

the

following

steps

to

configure

your

storage

agent

external

library

or

shared

ACSLS

library

manager

environment.

Step

1.

Verifying

the

Network

Connection

The

server

system

and

the

client

systems

must

be

attached

to

the

SAN

along

with

appropriate

storage

devices.

The

server

system

and

the

client

systems

must

also

be

connected

by

means

of

a

LAN.

The

Tivoli

Storage

Manager

for

Storage

Area

Networks

feature

requires

specific

levels

and

models

of

hardware

and

software.

Ensure

that

your

system

configuration

meets

the

hardware

and

software

requirements

for

the

SAN

setup.
