IPL Compatible
Ever since IBM began supporting tape drives with the AS/400 and OS/400 operating system, IPL has played a very vital role in restoring data. IPL is short for Initial Program Load.
Since the early 1990s, Cybernetics has been manufacturing virtual tape libraries (VTL) that connect directly to IBM midrange servers. Virtual tape libraries emulate tape drives. By appearing as IBM tape drives and libraries, all native tape backup/restore commands that work with OS/400, i5/OS and IBM i work with our virtual tape library. This includes IPL and Option 21 full system saves.
Virtual tape libraries can be connected to AS/400s, iSeries, Power Systems and Pure Systems via legacy SCSI, Fibre-channel and SAS. Cybernetics also manufacturers iSCSI converters that work with IBM to convert SCSI/SAS to iSCSI to overcome distance limitations and enable legacy support for older IBM servers.
Multiple IBM midrange servers can be connected to one virtual tape library. For more information on disk based backup solutions for IBM i, please contact us at 757-833-9000.
