Viewing the Drive Resource Utilization Reports

The Drive Resource Utilization Reporting (DRUR) feature enables you to view and manage your tape
drive resources. The data provided through DRUR can help you determine the proper work load
distribution between the drives in your library. DRUR provides you with up to twelve months of historical
data for each SN drive installed, and includes MB read and written, mounts, and media motion time.

NOTE:

The DRUR feature requires a license key to use. For more information, see

Generating the Events

Report

.

You can view the DRUR data in summary reports and graphs, which you can then export from the
library into a PDF document. You also can export and save the data as comma delimited text files
(.csv). A .csv file is a plain text file that stores basic database-style information in a simple format,
with one record on each line, and each field within that record separated by a comma.

DRUR data is based on the actual drive serial number (SN), not the logical drive serial number. The
data tracked and reported through the DRUR feature is data that has been accumulated while the
drive SN has been installed in the library.

NOTE:

You can e-mail, save, or print reports from a remote client. However, you cannot save or print reports
from the library OCP.
