ATTO Technology Inc. FastStream VT 5300 Installation and Operation Manual
Add a VTL from another FastStream VTL
If you want one FastStream VT 5300 to recognize
a library from another FastStream device, the
FastStream VT 5300 must discover it through
mapping. When you created your first library, the
media changer and tape drive LUNs are mapped
automatically to one of two ports. A second
library is mapped to the other port.
Note
The FastStream VT 5300 supports two
libraries, one on each port.
