Installing device drivers for IBM 3494 libraries

You can install device drivers to use IBM® 3494 tape libraries. The IBM tape library driver consists of the ibmatl (a service) and other components.

About this task

To install the device driver for an IBM 3494 Tape Library Dataserver, refer to the IBM TotalStorage Tape Device Drivers Installation and User's Guide.

To define a path for the library, you can determine the symbolic name of the library by verifying the value entered in the C:\winnt\ibmatl.conf file. For example, if the symbolic name for the library in the C:\winnt\ibmatl.conf file is 3494a, then this is the name of your device. Drives in the library are set up separately.
