Connecting Tape Devices

If you purchased a tape library with your NAS server, your server has either

two single-port SCSI cards installed or one to two FC cards for tape

connections. The HP NAS 8000 supports the HP tape and tape library

products. For updated information about supported tape devices, please refer

to the HP NAS 8000 support web page (http://www.hp.com/support/

nas8000).
See the installation guide that came with the tape device for more

information, or the Tape Library Upgrade section in this user’s guide.

Using HP OpenView OmniBack II and the NAS Backup Agent

HP OpenView OmniBack II is a backup solution that provides reliable data

protection and high accessibility for your data. OmniBack II offers

comprehensive backup and restore functionality specifically tailored for

enterprise-wide and distributed environments.
You can use OmniBack II version 4.0 or 4.1 on either a Windows NT or UNIX

system connected to your NAS server. Each tape drive requires an Omniback

II drive extension license. If all of the tape UNIX drive extension licenses are

assigned for your installation, additional UNIX drive extension licenses will be

required to add tape drives connected to the HP NAS 8000. For details about

OmniBack II licenses see the

OmniBack II Installation and Licensing Guide
