You can obtain firmware for the VXA-320 tape drive from the Tandberg Data

web site or from Tandberg Data Technical Support. To upgrade the software,

you need to use VXATool, a diagnostic program used on the host computer for

configuring, troubleshooting, and upgrading firmware in the VXA-320 tape

drive over the tape drive’s SCSI interface. VXATool is available for a variety of

operating environments.

Download VXATool free of charge from the Support section of Tandberg

Data’s web site at
