Supported Operating systems
See the HP Linear Tape File System (LTFS) Tape Drive and HP StoreOpen Automation Support
Matrix on
Minimum system configuration
•
Intel or AMD (x86), binaries are available for both 32 and 64–bit architectures
•
Dual core processor, 2.4 GHz
•
Minimum of 2 GB of RAM. 4 GB or more is recommended
IMPORTANT:
HP StoreOpen Automation software uses significant amounts of memory. If
the host's system memory is exhausted during operation, the software's behavior is
unpredictable and it may fail to complete pending operations.
•
An HP supported Fibre Channel or SAS interface adapter. See the EBS matrix for a list of
supported host adapters.
Configure the open source software dependencies
Obtain and download the appropriate open source dependencies, as described below.
IMPORTANT:
Do not run multiple instances of HP StoreOpen Automation on a single host machine.
The software will only allow one instance to be running at any time.
IMPORTANT:
Installing an instance of HP StoreOpen Automation on a host machine already
running HP LTFS for standalone LTO drives is not supported. Portions of the standalone software
will be modified, and may become unusable.
NOTE:
Do not install HP Storage TapeAssure LTFS service version 1.0, for SLES and RHEL. This
software is for the standalone version of LTFS. The MSL, EML and ESL libraries support HP
TapeAssure directly, and do not require this service to collect TapeAssure data.
