Pivotstor


The PivotStor Tape Libraries provide reliable, automated data protection for organizations that require affordable unattended data protection. Offering cost effective tape autoloaders, you can more easily free-up valuable IT resources, minimize human error, backup data quickly, and generate offsite archive copies of your critical data, while meeting your data retention requirements.

PivotStor AP Series rack-mountable tape libraries are available in LTO3 or LTO4 models with the flexibility of either Fibre Channel (FC), SAS or SCSI/LVD connectivity. They come out of the box ready to be installed and connected to either a server or SAN, and they feature an easy-to-use operator control panel (OCP) and a web browser-based remote management user (RMU) interface to execute setup and diagnostics, check library status, operations and logs, and upgrade firmware.

PivotStor Smart Architecture

PivotStor AP Series Rack-mount Tape Libraries incorporate several unique design architectures that ensure the highest levels of robotics, precision and reliability. These design architectures are:

  • PivotSense™

    PivotSenseTM is a light-sensing design architecture used by the PivotStor robotics to position accurately with the magazine cartridge slot. This technique eliminates the need to calibrate the robotics mechanism.

  • PivotSecure™

    PivotSecureTM is a dual-armed cartridge carrier technology that secures the cartridge during load and fetch operations. This is a more reliable method of fetching a cartridge than the standard single-hook mechanism that twists the cartridge while pulling it, making it more likely to slip.

  • PivotSure™

    PivotSureTM is a motor-driven gear design that precisely aligns robotic tracking and positioning. It provides a more reliable, trouble-free operation than belts and pulleys.
