Figure 2-1 shows the AML/2 in its basic configuration. Consult the appendix for additional configuration examples. Figure 2-1 07 Nov 2003 Basic AML/2 Configuration: One Quadro Tower and One Robot 2-1 System Function Major system components include the following items: • Host • AMU • Controllers The basic operational philosophy of the AML/2 centers on the host system which sends all commands to the rest of the system. When the host software determines that a specific media library action is necessary, it creates the appropriate command string and sends it to the AMU for processing. The AMU receives and interprets the host command, and then issues the appropriate command to the Robot and Storage Segment Controller hardware. After completing the movement actions, the Robot and Storage Segment Controller Hardware return a status message to the AMU. When all Controller status messages are returned, the AMU reports the overall results to the host system. AML/2 Hardware Components The main hardware components of the AML/2 library are: • AMU • Robot • Storage Segments • Control and Drive Cabinets • Manual Insert/Eject (I/E) Facility • Modem (optional) A description of each of these components is found in the following section. AML Management Unit (AMU) The AMU is the central interface of the AML/2 library, connecting the host computer to the robot system and the insert/eject unit. The AMU maintains a copy of the library drives and media information in a relational database. During normal operations, the host computer controls all functions of the AML/2 library. The AMU hardware and software components operate transparently. 2-2 Description 600135-E AMU Hardware Components AMU hardware consists of the following components: • computer with a color monitor, a mouse, and a keyboard • Token Ring, Ethernet, or FDDI Adapter, 3270 emulation adapter • RS232 control interface card — and/or — • CAN-Bus Adapter AMU Software Components The AMU software components are: • OS/2 Operating System • Personal Communication Manager TCP/IP • Database Manager (DB/2) • AMU Archive Management Software. For additional information, refer to AML/2 Software Components on page 2-13. • Distributed AML Server Software (DAS) AMU Basic Functions During normal operation in the “AUTO” mode, the host computer controls the system. The AMU´s basic tasks are: • host communication - interprets the incoming host commands and checks these commands for executability • management of the archive catalog - saves the logical coordinates of the compartments, assigns the media to compartments and traces the status of compartments and drives • conversion of logical coordinates into physical coordinates • communication with the control units of the robots and storage towers • provides operator interface for installation and service • configuration (describes the specific structure of the system) The AMU does not have access to the data content of the media. 07 Nov 2003 AML/2 Hardware Components 2-3 Robot Note The system configuration has available either one or two independently operated, separately tracked robots. Media movements are performed by a robot equipped with a mixed-media gripper and a laser barcode scanner. See Figure 2-2. Typical movements include the following: • moving media into and out of the library • storing and retrieving media within the library • mounting and dismounting media from drive units • scanning media barcode labels. Mixed-media components of the robot system include: Figure 2-2 2-4 Description • Gripper • Laser barcode scanner • Robot Y Axis platform • Robot X Axis column • rho 3 robot control • Robot Circular Axis platform Robot Gripper with Barcode Scanner 600135-E Track Section The robot travels on track sections that measure 3’ 8” in length. A minimum of three track sections are required for each storage system because home position hard stops are located 5’3” from the home end of the track. Figure 2-3 shows a track section with cable chain. Figure 2-3 Track Section Shown with Cable Chain Storage Segment The primary storage device for media on the AML/2 is the Quadro Tower. Each unit is described next. 07 Nov 2003 AML/2 Hardware Components 2-5 Quadro Tower The Quadro Tower provides the maximum media storage density with the minimum floor space required for a library system. The AML/2 can be configured with a maximum of nine Quadro Towers. See Figure 2-4. Figure 2-4 Quadro Tower - Side View Quadro Tower Capacity Each Quadro Tower consists of: • eight storage surfaces within the main rotating tower • 24 additional storage surfaces called segments, arrayed between four independent rotating auxiliary- or subtowers. The number of available positions per row depends on the media type. Each Quadro Tower can store the following number of cartridges according to its height: • 3 840 cartridges 3590 (2.05 m/6’ 8-3/4” high) • 4 800 cartridges 3590 (2.43 m/7’ 11-11/16” high) • 5 760 cartridges 3590 (2.80 m/9’ 2-3/4” high) in approximately 5 m2 / 54 ft2 floor surface area. 2-6 Description 600135-E Figure 2-5 Single AML/2 Quadro Tower (Top View) The average time to retrieve and mount a cassette is between 2.5 and 6 seconds. The Quadro Tower’s performance is optimized through weight reduction of moving components and the use of composite materials. Computer-directed servo mechanisms control the movement of the main tower and its auxiliary towers. Figure 2-5 shows a top view of the Quadro Tower. 07 Nov 2003 AML/2 Hardware Components 2-7 AMU Control Cabinet The AMU Control Cabinet houses the electronics that link the host computer to the rest of the system. See Figure 2-6. The control cabinet contains the following items: Figure 2-6 2-8 Description • AMU with monitor/keyboard • Power supply • Power distribution panel • Connector panel • Dual AMU (optional) AMU Control Cabinet 600135-E Robot Control Cabinet The Robot Control Cabinet houses the electronics which control the robotics of the AML/2. The AMU sends commands to this unit, and status is returned to the AMU. See Figure 2-7. Figure 2-7 07 Nov 2003 Robot Control Cabinet AML/2 Hardware Components 2-9 Tower Control Cabinet The Tower Control Cabinet houses the electronics which control the circular movement of the Quadro Tower. Commands are received from the AMU and status is returned to the AMU. One Tower Control Unit can control up to three Quadro Towers. See Figure 2-8. Figure 2-8 2-10 Description Tower Control Cabinet 600135-E Universal Drive Cabinet The Universal Cabinet contains drive units and optional drive controllers. See Figure 2-9. Figure 2-9 07 Nov 2003 Universal Drive Cabinet AML/2 Hardware Components 2-11 Manual Insert/Eject Unit Media are inserted into the AML/2 system and ejected through the Insert/Eject Unit. The operator loads media from the outside into removable magazines. The capacity of the removable magazines is determined by the type of media. The I/E unit incorporates a media depository that stores unidentified volumes, defective media, and used cleaning cartridges. The I/E unit consists of either two or four handling boxes located behind the access door. Figure 2-10 shows the Insert/ Eject Unit. Figure 2-10 2-12 Description Insert/Eject Unit 600135-E AML/2 Software Components ADIC software controls all functions in the AML/2, making automated data backup possible while operating simultaneously with the host system. ADIC software automatically receives messages, coordinates tasks, manages and updates the library database, and provides recovery from media errors. ADIC software can be tailored specifically for use with different library configurations. In addition, it can be reconfigured to accommodate an expanding library system. Software access to media libraries is implemented through the UNIX virtual file system layer. Mainframe Support The ADIC software supports the following mainframe sytems: 07 Nov 2003 • BS 2000: FSC Software ROBAR • TANDEM: Twinsoft, TwinATL • MVS: ADIC HACC/MVS (Europe only) AML/2 Software Components 2-13 Open System Support Distributed AML Server (DAS) Software DAS software operates with both client and server components. The server software modules support the OS/2 operating system platform, and the client software modules support UNIX/Windows operating system platforms. They communicate from the UNIX/Windows clients to the OS/2 DAS server (AMU controller PC) across a TCP/IP connected network.

The most vulnerable component in the AML configuration is the tape drive and media. 07 Nov 2003 • Vibration • Dust • Dirt Performance Specifications 3-5 Vibration Significant vibration (high amplitude) occurring while drives are writing will result in drives having to rewrite data, thereby reducing individual cartridge capacity and overall throughput. Vibration during reading will slow the data rate, due to retries, but will have no effect on cartridge capacity. Low amplitude vibration of short duration will not affect the robot/library. Cartridges in their storage slots will not have problems with vibration. The vibration of a mortar drill will not be a problem. The vibration of a jackhammer may introduce problems if located beside a drive cabinet. The robot is far less susceptible to vibration. The amplitude would have to be very large before the gripper would have targeting accuracy problems. Dust The AML will not have problems with slight dust. The AML library does not actively circulate air. Simple ambient air movement (from air conditioning units) will not move dirt into the library, but can carry dust. ADIC recommends cleaning the barcode reader at the first sign of errors. Or, schedule a night cleaning session during or after your construction. Both airborne dust and airborne dirt can get into tape drives if the air in front of a drive has both in sufficient concentration because the drives draw air from the front of the drive and push it out the rear of the drive. While inside the drives, dust and dirt can contaminate the tape path, resulting in accelerated head and tape wear causing the drives to show changes in performance. Dirt The difference between dust and dirt is determined by the size and weight of the particle. Except in the case of significant air movement, dirt will readily settle to the ground. As long as it settles out before it reaches the library, then there is no problem. Excessive amounts of gritty dirt will have an abrasive effect on the moving parts and can also impact the barcode reader on the robot. 3-6 Specification 600135-E Regulatory Specifications Table 3-5 lists the key safety and electromagnetic regulatory specifications for the AML/2 library.

In addition, the flooring must meet the insulation resistance requirements for electrical current of 1 x 105 to 1 x 108 ohms between the floor surface and earth ground. This will prevent system failure or electrical shock. Sufficient resistance is achieved by using antistatic, nonconducting floor tile with a resistance of 1 x 106 to 1 x 109 ohms. Provide an appropriate connection to the metal portion of the ground plate in order to ensure proper insulation resistance. Barcode Requirements Increased accuracy in barcode scanning of individual media labels can be assured if the labels are in compliance with the ANSI MH10.8M-1983 standard, and meet the following requirements: • ANSI MH10.8M-1983 Standard: • • • • • • • Additional Requirements: • • • • • • Number of digits: 6 Background reflection: at least 25 percent Print contrast: at least 75 percent Ratio: at least 2.2 Module: 250 µm Print tolerance: ± 57 mm Length of the rest zones: 5.25 mm ± 0.25 mm No black marks can be present in the intermediate spaces or rest zones No white areas may be present on the bars Bars should read in a uniform direction. Nonuniform reading directions are feasible in principle, but have a detrimental effect on performance Each label should be applied in the upper right corner of the tape cartridge recess (when oriented vertically) Quality Testing Compliance with these specifications can be checked and documented with the Ergilaser 3000 High Density bar code measuring device that is manufactured by the Laetus Company. 3-10 Specification 600135-E Standard Drives Supported by ADIC Several different drives types can be used with the AML/2 Library system.

The user was preparing for major construction work at the site where the equipment was located and was very concerned about the effects the resultant dust, dirt, and vibration could have on the current equipment. Vibration Scenario Concerns: The vibration concern is “what if” if an above the floor steel I-bean bracing is placed on top of the slab in the adjacent bay and is accidentally dropped? The concern is not for say a height of 5 feet, but the last inch or so when it is being released. The distance can vary from between 15’ to 60’ away. However, the actual placing of steel can be scheduled. ADIC Questions: With regard to the “what if” vibration scenario: • Is this above-floor I-beam bracing being installed on top of the floor you reinforced with I-beams prior to installing the AML/2? • How long is the steel I-beam? (To get an idea of point pressure and floor response.) • How heavy is the steel I-beam? • How much “give” is there in the floor that this I-beam might land on? • What extent (amplitude and duration) of vibration do you anticipate? Enough to vibrate a coffee cup off a desk? Will you be using jackhammers? If the supporting floor is supported such that you’re not expecting significant horizontal or vertical displacement (and a consequent “ringing wave” action back to the slab’s equilibrium point), then any vibration resulting from an Ibeam drop would be low amplitude short duration and of no concern. The principal concern is whether the library and/or the drives will be operating during the “what if” scenario. The vibration is the major concern because high amplitude vibration while the library is moving would mainly affect the robots and the tape drives. Robot elements could become bent, resulting in extended repairs and drives could come out of alignment, resulting in extensive reteaching resulting in extended downtime. 07 Nov 2003 Vibration Scenario B-1 ADIC recommends that the movement and placement of the steel be scheduled to coincide with the time that the robots and all tape drives are in a quiescent state during steel movement. AIDC consensus on reteaching drive position: If there is no significant vibration, the reteaching will most likely not be necessary. ADIC Question: Should the robotic arms be braced during the time the steel is being moved? Dust Scenario The user’s plan states: The work planned is the construction of a plastic sheet wall, slab to slab near the ODC library. This will protect the equipment from dust while a sheetrock slab to slab wall is built parallel to it that will comprise a UPS system. The plastic wall will remain until the sheetrock wall is 100% complete. ADIC Question: B-2 Actual Scenario • Do you have plenum cooling in the AML areas? • Are there plenum cooling vents under the drive cabinets or under the library? 600135-E
