AMASS Overview

• A network-attached Storage Technology storage device
using Automatic Cartridge System Library Software
(ACSLS).
During the AMASS installation, configure the unique media
types with separate authorization strings. For example, if the
AML contains both DLT and 3590 media, define AMASS with
an authorization string for DLT JUKEBOX 1 and an
authorization string for 3590 JUKEBOX 2.
For configuration instructions, refer to Installing AMASS and
Accessing Storage Devices. For DAS installation and operation
on the AMU, refer to the DAS Installation and System
Administration Guide.
