4.1.3.5 Getting started with a tape library
If you have a tape library device attached to a machine with Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Storage
Node installed, all you need to do to back up onto the tape library is to create an archive vault on the
device under storage node management.
Prerequisites
A tape library device has to be installed on a machine running Windows in accordance with the
device manufacturer’s installation instructions.
If Removable Storage Manager (RSM) is present in your version of Windows, it must be activated.
In Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft Windows Server 2003:
Removable Storage Manager is part of the operating system and is activated initially.
To activate Removable Storage Manager in Microsoft Windows Server 2008:
1. Click Administrative Tools > Server Manager > Features > Add Feature.
2. Select the Removable Storage Manager check box.
To activate Removable Storage Manager in Microsoft Windows Vista:
1. Click Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on or off.
2. Select the Removable Storage Management check box.
Fill the library slots with tape cartridges. If a tape does not get a barcode or its barcode is corrupted,
you can define the tape label for identification purposes later.
You should have Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Management Server and Acronis Backup & Recovery
10 Management Console installed on local or remote machines, as well as Acronis Backup &
Recovery 10 Storage Node, installed on the machine with the tape library device, and registered in
the management server.
Tape library as a managed vault
To enable data protection operations using a tape library you have to create a managed vault on the
tape library. You can create a vault from the Centralized vaults view of the console. See the Creating
a managed centralized vault (p. 125) section for more information.
But the simplest way is to create a vault from the Storage Nodes view. In addition to that select the
storage node, the tape library is attached to, and then click Create vault. The Create centralized
vault page will be displayed with the pre-selected parameters. All you need to do is to specify the
vault Name before you click OK.
Once the vault is created, it is accessible from the Centralized vaults view of the console. Then the
tape library can be used for backing up.
Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 allows creating only one vault per tape device.
If all cartridges in a tape library have barcodes, and the RSM Free pool contains enough tapes for a
chosen backup scheme, the library is ready to fully work automatically.
You can start working with the vault even though all the tape library slots are empty. If there are no
available tapes in the tape library slots during the backup operation, the Tasks Need Interaction
window asks you to load a tape.
