HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools
HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools (L&TT) is a collection of storage hardware management and
diagnostic tools assembled into a single, convenient program. L&TT offers a GUI or command screen
interface (CSI), allowing you to perform the following functions with the library:
•
Installation check—Guides you through a basic installation check of the library. The software
helps you choose an appropriate HBA, making sure that the device is detected by the system, and
verifying key device functionality.
•
Device identification—Identifies the storage products connected to the system, along with key
information on product configuration and status.
•
Troubleshooting tests—Provides various tests to verify product functionality or to isolate product
issues. Tests include device self-tests, read/write tests on tape drives, exerciser tests for autoloaders
and libraries, and specific device utilities.
•
Support ticket generation—If you experience a problem with a storage product, L&TT can
generate a support ticket that includes essential information for troubleshooting the problem.
•
Automatic notification of Web updates—If a connection to the Internet is present and Web
updates are enabled in the tool preferences, L&TT automatically informs you of the following
updates, if available, each time the program is started:
• New versions of L&TT
• New firmware files for connected devices
• New device-specific functionality (such as new or updated tests) for connected devices
