The only 'NIX that ACSLS supports is Solaris.

supported Solaris and maybe AIX - that might be a killer for using
ACSLS on linux. Are you sharing your robot with others? Is there any
reason to use ACSLS? TLD control works just fine for those robots and
is far less expensive to implement than ACSLS.

Currently I have an L700e with ACSLS for library

drive whackiness that might exist in Linux since
Veritas is relatively new to Veritas on Linux
(compared to Solaris).

How about mixing media/master servers.... keeping my
master server as a Solaris box, with Linux media servers???
