"Does acsls control library sharing?"

It certainly does.  That is its reason for existing, in fact.  See 
http://www.sun.com/storagetek/tape_storage/tape_software/acsls/ for more 
information.

I am working on a site that is using acsls on L700 libraries. Is it possible 
that it is in use with the objective of sharing the library? Does acsls control 
library sharing?

and the ACSLS software will control all tapes being put in the library,
pulled out and the backup server communicates directly with the ACSLS
server.

I would like to know what the function of acsls is when used in a
networker environment. In which scenarios should use of acsls be
considered?

thanks
